"It's a Girl" cigars

No I'm not sure what to get here... I'm drawn to Cusano because they seem like the middle of the road for price/value. However, I guess they have a new? it's a boy/girl cigar. It's a robusto instead of the toro I saw previously. They come in a box of 10 for ~$54 each, whereas I'll pay between $75-$80 for a box of 20 of the other ones. However, the box of 10 looks much nicer and I like the bands a lot better. I'm sure they're the same cigar, but I like the look of the 10ct boxes a lot more. If I was buying them for myself, I'd simply get the cheaper ones. However, I'm buying these to pass out, so I'd like them to be nice. I also see the 10ct boxes have a place where I can have her name written on the inside of the box, and my sister-in-law does colligraphy so I think that would be awesome. To buy two boxes of the 10ct as opposed to one box of the 20ct, it would only cost me about $20 more. Anyway, do you think it would be worth it?

First of all, congrats! Fatherhood, while challenging, is one of the most rewarding experiences in life. I'm a fan.
Secondly, if more than 50% of the recipients of these cigars are NOT regular smokers, then I would say save the cash and spend it on a nicer stick for yourself come the little lady's first birthday. I bought a box of 8-5-8s when my son was born, and half of them didn't even get smoked more than halfway... which was kind of a waste.
Third-ly, if this is your first child, I recommend reading The-Three-Martini-Playdate. This book really helps put some perspective on how parenting can change your life for the worst.

Congrats. I have seen the 10ct box and it does look head and shoulders above the 20ct. Ill probabally do the two 10ct boxes soon.
I gave out some La Aurora Ruby tubos. Don't like em but they look pink-ish.

Agreed, the 10 count boxes look much classier.

I had some C18s when I first started smoking cigars, and I have had one or two since then. From what I recall I enjoyed them. For a reasonably-priced, every-day cigar I think they're just right.
