Afternoon all,

A friend wants to get his FIL a Cuban so looking for a short list of what he could go for. A couple of things (if possible) to consider

- Smokes pretty decent fresh
- Maybe in a tube (to keep for a bit) although I'm sure he would have a tupperware for it & I could sort out a small boveda
- Not too expensive (although he will be in Palma this weekend so prices should be decent)

So far I thought (not sonsidering the above)

Montecristo

Edmundo
Petit Edmundo
Wide Edmundo
No 4
No 2

Romeo y Julieta

Short Churchill
Wide Churchill
Belicoso

H Upmann

No 2
Magnum 50
Connoisseur A

Hoyo de Monterrey

Epicure No 1/2/3?
Petit Robusto

Partagas

Serie D
Serie E
Serie?

I'm sure there are many others

Thanks in advance 🙏🏻

Is FIL a seasoned cigar smoker?

Not sure about a seasoned smoker, but has had a cigar before

Any Cuban robusto should do the trick. Probably right size and strength for an occasional smoker. Not much you can do about age buying straight from a shop, just smell test for ammonia

A Monte Petit tubos would do the trick. The tubo will preserve it for a good while

Upmann is a Marca that's usually universally loved, can't really go wrong with a Nr2.
I'd probably give him a D4 as I love them and they are usually pretty consistent.

Romeo y Julieta tubos are usually pretty common in Spain, a number 3 would be a could bet.

I'd agree with anything Tubo. Doesn't have to be smoked straight away and it's already gift wrapped 🎁

Agree Monte Tubos or R&J 2 or 3, can't go wrong. Get him to try it that day, then if he enjoys it, he can pick up a pack or two of 3, whilst he's there & the price is cheaper than UK.
Best reason to get the FIL into smoking cigars, is you can offer him one every time he comes around & the wife can't complain!
