What is your planned cigar to toast in the new year? Since 2012 is the end of the world...my choices (NC). Then later on we go to the islands...but I'll keep that to myself.

I dunno. Depends on when we get back from the NYE party at my friend's. We don't wait up for the ball these days, so it will depend on when my little girl gets to sleep.
Maybe an Anejo 48, but it could just be a Padron 3000.

Partagas Serie D no. 4.....I think. My mind isn't made up yet.
I'm eyeing a Partagas Lusitania, a Cohiba 30th Anniversary, or a Forbidden X Petit Lancelot 2004. There should be no doubt, though, I will be pairing my cigar with Dalmore King Alexander III!
Nice choices guys...badwhale...is that natural or maduro 3000? I've had the maduro and it was choice. Between the Anejo and the 3000, you'll be smoking some good stuff either way.

A Sir Winnie from a few years ago, or maybe my last MBI, or perhaps a Padron lonnie maduro, or a Famous VSL Honduran, or an El cobre....or whatever I happen to latch onto when the humi opens. Doesn't really matter, I don't think there's anything left in there I don't like.
I've been smoking off all of my singles during 2011, so I'll probably smoke the two that I have left - a WOAM and a Perfexcion X from last year's draft.
As for drink, Havana Club Cuban Barrel Proof with the WOAM, and Alberta Premium (the only "real" Canadian Rye whisky made these days) 25 year old with the Opus.
I made a bet with my wife that I could go all year without a drink so I'll be hitting the last of my Johnny Walker Blue with a Lusitania and a Partagas 160
I hope the winnings are worth it!
I read it too fast and I subconsciously added the words "and LOST" after "I made a bet with my wife that I could go all year without a drink" so I was thinking that CigarBear had made a bet with his wife last New Year's Eve, lost the bet the next day and has hitting the sauce all year because hey, why not, he already lost the bet and he was going to make another stab at the bet again this New Year's Eve.
If you were able to follow all that, AMG's reply made perfect sense to me!
I'm probably not going to be smoking a cigar on New Year's Eve so I have no value to add to this thread.

Forty Creek is very good, but, like almost all other Canadian 'Rye' Whiskey, it is a blend of various grains. Rye is a component - Maize (Indian Corn), Barley, and Rye are used in Forty Creek's case. Although American Rye Whiskey has to be at least 51% distilled from Rye, there is no similar requirement anymore in Canada. Canadian 'Rye' just has to have the taste characteristic of "Canadian Whiskey" - it doesn't even have to have Rye in it (http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/r...-B.02.020.html)
To correct myself, there are actually a few other 100% Ryes besides Alberta distiller's brands (Premium (5yr IIRC), Springs (10yr IIRC), and Limited 25 year and 30 year - unfortunately, the last two are sold out AFAIK), but Alberta (currently owned by Beam) is the most widely available.
