Looking for any and all suggestions for sticks over the Halloween Weekend. My Dad is coming into town and I'm trying to pin down a few good sticks for him, other than what I already have in my mind. God Bless and have a great Halloween.

Your dad doesn't smoke much right? I'm thinking he'll still just like the idea of smoking the Jekyll on Halloween.

Mild to Medium bodied sticks for sure KyleWiley, he doesn't smoke much, but enjoys a good one from time to time. / The Jekyll will be too long of a smoke for him Broadleaf

Wouldn't you like to know, IL
If you can get your hands on one by then, I'd go with an Illusione Fume D'Amour or the AVO Movement '14 TAA. Something more accessible maybe a San Cristobal Elegencia or something from Crowned Heads...can't go wrong there.

If he enjoys shorter smokes how about a Short Story or a Papas Fritas. I like to give those to guys who don't smoke a lot, but like to join in when I'm smoking. I love those 2 little guys.

You being in AZ, weather won't be an issue. Me (Michigan), I'm probably ding out a 601 Green or a Cubao (something with a thick oscuro/maduro wrapper) to take along when I take my Son out.

I'd say something fuente other than an opus? Or a viaje like the others have said.
fuente don carlos #3 or 4, or hemmi signature (the gorona gorda size). tons of flavor and texture, and easy enough on the power to be accessible to a casual guy. these smokes are all class, and kinda hard to hear something bad about. also, you may have some on hand, or should be able to find some easily.

also, may be a bit heavy, but a my father core line would be totally appropriate...

If we're talking my father, I'd say a La duena for milder
