The smoking culture has existed for ages and has been a consistently growing market. History tells that cigar smoking was common in the Latin American region which includes countries such as Brazil, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua. Same with Cameroon, Honduras, Indonesia and it includes Cuba and the United States of America.

Christopher Columbus is said to be the first to introduce cigar in Europe. Ages after, cigar smoking has been associated with masculinity and high social status that makes cigar an interesting part of a special smoker’s habits. In special occasions, it could be a good form of present for a friend, a colleague, a boss, a partner…How does one buy a good cigar as a gift?

  • Find out stores, specifically smoke specialty stores, that sell a great selection of cigars including those which are extraordinary.
  • Consider the smoking experience of the person you would want to give your present to. This would determine if the size and diameter of the cigar would suit his or her taste. The cigar diameter is directly proportional to the richness of the flavor. Cigars that are bigger in diameter and richer in taste are more appropriate for “experienced” smokers. For “greenhorn” smokers, longer cigars with cooler smoke is commendable.
  • See to it that the cigar is of good quality and that it is made of one hundred percent tobacco. Some cigars are more of the non-tobacco components like paper, glycerin or saltpeter.
  • Refrain from buying a lumpy cigar. You could check out if its lumpy by giving it a gentle squeeze. Also check the wrapper. Refrain from picking cigars that have wrapper discoloration.
  • Make your present more special by adding up a cigar cutter or an ashtray that would impress the receiver.
  • Give it with sincerity of course.
