Ok so I'm going to a wedding in a few weeks, my fiance's step sister is getting married. I wanna take some stogies with me for the wedding. The groom is a cigar enthusiast and so is the fiance's dad and brother. So I'm trying to decide what to pick up to take with me. For the groom I'll be picking up something nice to take him. For everybody else I'm trying to decide what to get, I'm doing this on a budget wanna keep it under $100 if possible. I don't know how many other enthusiast will be there but who doesn't wanna have a smoke at a wedding right? Here are my ideas:
CCOM House Blend Sampler (1 or 2 of them)
Box of Diesel UC
AJ Fernandez All Star Corona Sampler (2 or 3 of them)
CAO 5 x 2 Sampler (2 or 3 of them)
CAO Cuban Press Sampler (2 of them)
5 Vegas Box-Pressed Sampler (2 of them)
Cigar.com Ultimate 3x5 Belicoso Combo (2 of them)
MOW Box-Press Sampler (2 of them)
Dirty Dozen II Sampler (2 of them)
Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur box
Rocky Patel Signature Series box
Any input or ideas is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!

I bet Tim could set you up with a box of Jaime Garcia petit robustos for $100, that would be a great cigar to take.

I will float out a box 5 Vegas AAA. Excellent cigar, price is right (especially if you hunt around a bit) and the bands are super sexy!

I've never had any of these. But on the word of Joe that says a lot about it!j0z3r:I bet Tim could set you up with a box of Jaime Garcia petit robustos for $100, that would be a great cigar to take. -
Good call. My only concern, and this is with some of the ones I listed too, is if it'd be too strong for anybody who doesn't smoke regularly but wants to join in on the fun.The Sniper:I will float out a box 5 Vegas AAA.

I normally have a few extra 5 Vegas classics around for that very scenario.ENFIDL:

Cigar.com recently had a box of oliva o's for something like 60 bucks. You might be able to have Tim to get you in on that

Fun? My suggestion is exactly why it WOULD be fun! You could stand around watching everyone slowly turn green and trying to act like they were enjoying the he11 out of em.ENFIDL:

ltherron, where'd you come from??? Must have missed your introduction thread. Welcome to the greatest online forum in existence, and thanks for your service!ltherron:I normally have a few extra 5 Vegas classics around for that very scenario.

Joyo de Nicaragua Dark Corojo Antano - just hand them out, act like you can't pronounce the name and ask if anyone can help you - give an Opus X/GOF to anyone who can pronounce it correctly; everyone else gets a 5 Vegas Classic/Gold with a GOF band on it

Put together a 5 Vegas Sampler, you can't go wrong there.

Could you imagine handing punishers out to everyone and watchin their reactions...LMAOThe Sniper:

I've had great success handing out Excaliburs to people, they are smooth and tasty. I'd say either those or the AJ corona sampler. Those are some great smokes and varied, too, which will help match the person to the right cigar. I don't think you could go wrong with either of these.
If you're gonna have the video tape rolling while people are yakking up their pvnishers another nice trick would be to get a big bowl of wasabi and put chips by it so people think it's guacamole. Good times. -
My suggestion would be Gran Habano Vinatge 2002. Not only is it a great cigar for people that actually smoke... but it also has lots of cool stuff to "unwrap" before you smoke it, so the fakers in the crowd will still be very impressed. Plus... you can get a mazo of 20 of em for like $40 bucks...

I'm seriously considering this. It'd be one of the most awesome things ever!The Sniper:

==>Agreed, you always have to have a few eyepokers/yardgars on hand for an occasion such as this!e6specialk:Put together a 5 Vegas Sampler, you can't go wrong there.

I think a couple of those 5Vegas sampler tins would be pretty impressive to show up with.Shaun.Harrison87:

What do you guys think about me taking some Tabak Especial Negra Robusto? I think it'd be a great stick for after dinner and for anybody
-
for a guy who doesnt smoke infused cigars, I liked it very much

If it were me, I'd go with a box of Padron naturals. A few of the vitolas can be had for under $100 for a box.

That's a great idea Marty, I hadn't even thought of Padrón, and I love me some Padrón.lilwing88:If it were me, I'd go with a box of Padron naturals. A few of the vitolas can be had for under $100 for a box. -

Hey, Elijah. I'd suggest some Camacho Corojo Monarcha or Zino Classic #6. If you'd like either of these, I know where you can get these for a very affordable price.

I just got one of those 5 Vegas Box press samplers about 3 weeks ago in a kelly deal and it was awesome. I would highly suggest that one. I never had the Miami and the Cask Strength before and was really impressed. For the variety and the price and the consistency, its a great sampler.

what about AF Hemingway Short Story
It would be a shorter smoke time for those that can't go missing from a wedding for a long time. -
Wayne if you wouldn't mind I'd love the info. Thanks brother!wwhwang:Hey, Elijah. I'd suggest some Camacho Corojo Monarcha or Zino Classic #6. If you'd like either of these, I know where you can get these for a very affordable price.
