Some gifts get opened, thanked for, and end up in a drawer. A good cigar doesn't. A cigar gets lit, shared and remembered. That's what makes it one of the most personal things you can give: you're not handing over an object, you're handing over half an hour of calm and good conversation.

Think about it for a second. It takes no space and gathers no dust: it gets lived. And picking the right one says something nice, that you thought about whoever will enjoy it.

When does it land perfectly?

Some moments practically call for a cigar:

• When a baby is born, the timeless tradition.
• At a wedding, for the groom and the groomsmen.
• Closing a deal or stepping into a promotion.
• A retirement, toasting the road traveled.
• Father's Day or a birthday, the classic that never misses.
• Or no excuse at all: a night with friends worth turning into a memory.

And if I don't know what they like?

Relax, that's completely normal. An assortment lets them discover for themselves, and an award-winning cigar never disappoints. And if you want a sure thing without overthinking it, let our Maestro ask you a couple of questions and tell you exactly which one to take.
