What cigar(s) for your 40th birthday?

[LigaPrivadaFanboy]

I turn 40 a year from tomorrow. Hook me up with all your crazy-but-seriously-worthwhile ideas. Fair warning: First person to say "Black & mild" might get a baker's dozen 50BMG RAUFOSS rounds "mailed" to his house from a mile away. ;-)

Thanks!

Black & mild!....First! Just did that to be a dick.

Mine was a Montecristo #2, sipping some horrible cocktail called poncho at the port in Madeira. Can recommend the cigar but not the poncho.

That's a good question. I have about 368 days to figure it out myself. I'll follow this thread up closely.

I'd say try one of the rarer, better cigars you never tried and make it that much more spécial. Some HTF sticks? Limited édition? Maybe a rare CC? Some opus X?

Smoke it in good company. No mater how good you smoke is, with perfect draw and awesome flavors, if you smoke it in bad company it'll be ruined...

Good advice from herfdog, good friends are better than a good cigar any day of the week.

With that said smoke you favorite cigar with your favorite beverage with your favorite people.

A bakers dozen RAUFOSS ???? You could buy a whole case of black and milds for what they cost.

You dont smoke a cigar on your 40th...

you buy round trip tickets to Knoxville, TN as a present to yourself.. and plan on attending the next Hillbilly HERF

Since you're a Liga fan you can't go wrong with a FFP!

An ordinary but really nice smoke, IMO, My Father Le Bijou.

Ha, I was just about to type the same thing but ya beat me to it.

My 30th is in a couple years and I am sitting on an Opus A for both my father and myself. Seemed like a good time to smoke those bad boys.

How about starting out with a Quesada 40th anniversary and then follow up with a Padron 1926 40th anniversary.

Make sure that you pair them with a good 40 year old scotch to complete the theme

 

[herfdog]

I like @Rupe 's style.
that 40 year old theme is a good idea.

Thanks!

How about a Padron Family Reserve 40th!
I smoked a Padron FR 44th on my 44th last month. Ill do a 45th on my 45th and then fill in the gaps up to 50. After that its all down hill right...

Away for a day and this thread is already full of awesome ideas. Thanks gents! My friends and I are already planning the party. One of the posts here gave me the idea of picking up a buncha sticks at Casa Fuente while I'm in Vegas this July. I love it when a plan comes together!

I can't wait for that! Actually have been looking forward to it since I flew out of KNX last year. Are dates posted yet?

Might as well go for broke! Cohiba GR!

Yes, indeed I could get a whole case of black & milds for the going rate on ONE RAUFOSS round. Hell, I could probably get several boxes for the price of one M33 round.
