What's up geeks?!
So I'm closing on my house on Friday! It's been a rather slow and long drawn out process, but the day is finally on the horizon!!! Saturday I plan on going to the house and smoking a celebratory cigar out on MY porch. Its going to be about 60 degrees and sunny. I'm having a really hard time deciding, so I'd like to ask you guys - what cigar would you pick to smoke for this occasion?
H. Upmann Sir Winston
Cohiba Piramides Extra
Hoyo De Monterrey Double Corona
Davidoff 50th Anniversary Diademas
Padron 'Hammer' - natural or maduro
Arturo Fuente Anejo Shark
Arturo Fuente Eye of the Shark
Arturo Fuente Personal Reserve Robusto
Arturo Fuente Destino Al Siglo
Opus X 20 Years Power of the Dream
Congrats, Tom! What town are you moving to?
If you think that you'll have the time to smoke it, that Hoyo De Monterrey Double Corona is a 2+ hour cigar. That would be my choice
Smoke the "Hammer" :biggrin: my reason for that one is House = Hammer :biggrin:

Thanks Bruce!! We are moving to Holtsville - next town over from the apartment we are in now - so we can keep the kids in the same district. It will be really nice
I have not tried the Hoyo DC yet but I have heard they are fabulous. I think Saturday will be one of the very few days when the Mrs. will give me the green light to have a couple of hours to myself, might as well take full advantage

Hah! Such a tough call.
Congrates Tom on the new house.I'm a big Upmann fan so I have to go with the Sir Winston
Congratulations Tom! What year Winnie? If less than 5 years, go with the Davidoff 50th Anniversary Diademas.
Winnie is a 2019 single, I know it wouldn't be as great as it could me. Haven't had the Diadema since last summer, it keeps looking at me when I open my humidor
Congratulations! I think the suggestion to go with the Hammer hit the nail on the head!

:lmao: :lmao:
hahaha very funny!!
Haven't tried any of those so can't help there, but congratulations! :bigthumbs:
Congrats! I'd go for the Hammer Maduro.
Congrats on the move
You have lots of great choices, I would wait till the moment and decide then based on what you feel like at the time
YUPP - Congrats on your new Man Cave - but remember Woman rules THE HOUSE....For the Weekend " IT'S HAMMER TIME"!!!!!!!
So I decided to go with the OpusX 20th Anniversary. This vitola is called Power of the Dream and I thought it was fitting with the American Dream of owning a home. It was the best cigar I've ever smoked, and I don't think it had anything to do with the cigar itself! (although it was great).
Nice!
Great selection on the cigar and the house Tom.
Very nice!
Congrats on the house Tom! I would have chosen the same one with a name like that, and the house being a dream. Anyone of them would have probably been a great smoke though being able to relax in your new place! Enjoy the new pad!

Very nice Tom :biggrin:
Thanks gents! It was a fantastic cigar - sweet cedar and cinnamon/nutmeg.....super smooth.....strength was not nearly as much as you would expect from an Opus. It was a treat to smoke
Well done, and congratulations!! :biggrin: :bigthumbs:
Congrats - on both choices.
