Cigars for My Brother’s Wedding.
By Jesse | September 8, 2008 |
Well my little brother is getting married! While he may not smoke one, I hope to a least light up a special cigar with my dad while back for the wedding so I thought I’d get three cigars for the occasion.
What are your suggestions?
I’ll post my choice later today.

OpusX Forbidden, Montecristo #4, and Oliva V Torpedo

Just like your last post implies, God of Fire would be ideal for a special occasion!

1) Cohiba Esplendido
2) Cohiba Esplendido
3) Cohiba Esplendido

If you’re getting cigars for the three of you, as your post on Twitter suggested, I’d recommend Davidoff Millenium lonsdales. Solid hour smoke, medium bodied, and just classy looking.

Gee, what about a “God of Fire” 4-pack? Seriously, I have to throw my $.02 behind Jon on his first two suggestions. Unless you think it wont last, then I recommend something from the gas station.

Illusione Holy Lance
Tat Black

If your little brother was going to join you, I’d recommend the Montecristo White. Not so much for the flavor as the white band. Something that is classy looking and easy for your little brother to smoke on his wedding day.
If he’s not joining you and you and your father just want a great smoke, I’d do the Padilla 1932 Signature Torpedo size. Now that’s a cigar!!! As an alternative, a Padron 1926. Bleh to the 80th, overpriced and the wrapper is too thick. The regular 1926 is better IMHO.
So, in summary:
Montecristo White
Padilla 1932 Signature Torpedo
Padron 1926 Anniversary No 2 or 9, whatever.

Romeo y Julieta Churchill… a classic Cuban churchill with the added bonus of symbolism… :-)

I’ll vote Padron 1926 #9.

Although its sort of a cheap cigar, you should try out one of the Da Vinci Cigars. I love the Mona Lisa, so heres my list
1. Da Vinci Mona Lisa
2. J. Fuego Delerium Belicoso
3. C.A.O MX2 Robusto

My take will be a little bit different… Since you are at a wedding and it will probably be rude to be outside smoking the whole time… In addition you will probably not be able to focus and enjoy the more complex cigars.. i suggest the following short, reasonably priced cigars..
1. Trinidad Maduro- Robusto
2. Coronado by La Flor Dominicana- Corona Especial
3. 601 Red Habano - Robusto

1. opener: Opus X Perfexion
2. centerpeice: Dunhill Cabinetta
3. with a nightcap: Tatuaje Black or Padron 80th (dark wrapper)
Here are some others to consider:

centerpiece: Cohiba Siglo VI
nightcaps: La Riqueza #2, RP Decade torpedo
