    why not get two mags 48s cracking smokes and you can have one each, i find sharing cigars never a good idea if only sharing one between two people,does not get a chance to rest between puffs and can over heat

      from you're list...... there's quite a few i haven't had!!! however, i can thoroughly recommend the bolivar corona gigantes, HDM epi esp and trinidad fundadores!!! i love the cuaba salamones, but not sure i'd recommend it as a christmas smoke!!! the romeo y julieta duke EL2009 get's recommendations for being a good xmas cigar......



      btw, here's my reviews of the cuaba salamones:

      How come the cuaba wouldn't be great for Christmas?

      Hmmmm maybe will have to get two cigars, one for Christmas and another for New Year! I also have one bolivar RC in the humi.

      Great idea with the mag 48's but I have smoked quite a few this year and would like to try something different, even though they are my current favourite!

        sharing a cigar...... oh i thought you meant something more like, spending time smoking a cigar with the old man...... in the normal sense of a cigar each!!! does he not smoke cigars? if that's the case, get in a box of cohiba clubs for him and a proper cigar for yourself!!! no point getting something like a monte sublime and playing 'pass the dutchie on the left hand side'......

          He does love a nice cigar, I am using him as an excuse to warrant buying a big mama! which I will probably smoke by myself :P

              the cuaba is a great cigar, a real gentle giant!!! as i said, it's perfect for a lazy summer or autumn evening!!! it's light/ medium bodied and quite vegetal/ earthy in flavour!!! great to accompany some rustic tapas food or barbeque and some cold beer and single malt!!! at xmas time, i tend to think something medium/ full bodied with a nice spicy kick is required, such as bolivar or partagas....... something that goes well after a rich and heavy feed and pairs well with a nice syrah, single malt or cognac!!! also, as a celebration time, i also tend to go for cigars i normally don't have or can't afford regularly, such as cohibas, trinidads, RE's, EL's and H&F vintage and aged......

              hope this makes sense........

                  Cheers Alex, very helpful! - I think will get the Juan Lopez SS 2009 and the Bolivar Gigantes (hoping its not too spicy for my youthful palette!).. with the possibility of the fundadores

                    Can anyone hazard a guess as to why regalcigars http://puu.sh/1CSIJ has Juan Lopez Seleccion Suprema at 18.50 compared with cgars http://puu.sh/1CSJw 29.99?!!

                        Best ask Mitch that one Sam ... and no, Regal don't sell dodgy smokes.

                        I think Regal are offering a good price. Average is probably this:- http://www.mysmokingshop.co.uk/index...n=407&sec=1846
                        If you want to, you can.
                        And, if you can, you must!

                          thanks, just thought I might be missing a big fat orchant selection band or something! guess its time to test the cgars price match guarantee...

                            I have to admit that I have noticed very regularly over the last couple of years, that Cgars' prices are very often quite a bit more than other suppliers. Rather often for a store which 'guarantees' the lowest prices... However, they are very good about price matching, so there are no issues there.

                              I take issue with it. Why would I want to waste my time to get a price match when I already know where to get the original winning price.
                              If you want to, you can.

                                There are no issues getting them to honour their price match guarantee. Personally I'm with you - if they're guaranteeing the lowest prices then they shouldn't need a price match guarantee... (Was just trying to be diplomatic, my goal in life since I almost re-started the Balkan conflict at an Embassy reception a couple of years ago... )
