Holiday Cigars

Although it is too cold to be smoking outside (-12C), I'm hoping to convince my wife to let me enjoy a stick in the garage over the holidays (a little smoke invariably gets into the house, hence the permission needed). I've settled on either a Monte Sublime or Upmann Sir Winston; both 2 hour cigars. Decisions, decisions

Anyone else going to celebrate with a stick?

I plan on it, but I have not made my way to the cigar shop yet...I hope to bring in the new year with a stogie!

I'll pass this xmas - it was -9 on xmas eve, -4 yesterday

Part of the pleasure\ experience for me is sitting outside when its warm with a cold beer & a paper\ magazine or book or maybe in a beer garden

I had a few holiday cigars last year in the garage but just not the same shivering with your cigar held in a glove ....... !!

My son and I enjoyed a couple Fuente Flor Fina 8-5-8's. Great smokes.
Since were having my wife's family over today and there'll be a roaring fire in the fireplace I might have to enjoy a stick tonight.

H Upmann petit corona and a glass of Otima port. Under the Gazebo listening to the rain. Perfect end to Christmas Day.

Christmas would not have been Christmas without my annual box of Fuente Anejo's. Had one last night.

I have a couple of those saved in the humidor.

Enjoyed a Partagas Series 2 [thanks, Howard!!] w/ some Grand Marnier in front of the fire to toast the end of Christmas 2010.
