Thread: What's your 4th of July smoke?

  1. Default What's your 4th of July smoke?

    Hello CS, I recently panned around the members map and noticed quite a lot of Americans. As you know, Independence day draws near and I know nothing better to go along with friends, fireworks, and food than a nice cigar. For those of you who might of thought ahead, what do you plan to enjoy on the 4th? Anything out of the ordinary?
    As for me, I think it would be kind of neat to get my hands on a CAO America for that night. I enjoy the brand, would like to try something new, and it just seems to fit!

    I think I am going to go with a 5 Vegas Classic, perhaps followed up by something by Carlos Torano. Not really in keeping with the America theme, but those are what I'm into right now. :)

    I think I saw that guy at the shop a few days ago. I thought something was off with the $25 price tag on the box but then again, and after looking it up online, that IS one monster of a cigar. Enjoy!
    (I'm hoping for a smaller one on the 4th myself.)

    Three small whiskies had gone to his head and Gallaher's strong cigar had confused his mind, for he was a delicate and abstinent person. (--from the short story 'A Little Cloud' by James Joyce)

    Seems like the CAO America would be the fitting smoke.

    I only brought a small travel humidor with me to Florida, so I guess it'll be something in there. Although I am going down to Tampa today to hang out with Guado, so I'm sure we'll stop by some shops. We'll probably spend the 4th on the beach and watch the fireworks, that's gonna be even sweeter with a cigar.

    Yesterday for Canada Day I started with a Belinda and a 898 Collection Robusto during the daytime activites (my wife and I took our daughter down to the festivities for a pony ride) finished the night off with a Gurkha Ancient Warrior and a Gurkha Beauty during the fireworks/concert.

    I'll have to see what I've got sitting around for the 4th. Most likely is the Rocky Patel Vintage 92 or the Rocky Patel Fusion sitting in the humi.

    Something from the box in the coolerdor with the nicer smokes. Maybe a Montecristo Media Noche I've been saving.

    CAO America here. The burn bans here have fireworks sales subdued. So I'll just have to keep a good bright coal on my stogie. Hopefully the fire dept won't hose me.

    I'd like to get my hands on one of those Don Pepin Firecrackers, just because... But I got a whole box of CAO America Monuments, and I might light up one of those CAO Brazilia Trombetas if I feel giddy. Man, I also have some Flor De Oliva Super Giants left... I guess I dont know what I'll smoke.

    Man, here I thought I was clever with the CAO America idea. Seems to be the consensus though!

    I lit one up on my birthday last year, it was a surprisingly decent 3 1/2 hour + smoke. Only problem I had was that I had to cut it with a knife, my cutter isn't large enough for the 66? RG.
