Right,

Looking at part of a xmas present for my dad and I have been thinking about getting him some cigars in a display box.

Not being a smoker my self and knowing they are a few on here Im looking for a bit of direction on where to buy/whats good.

Price range upto £200.

Cheers for any help.

Whoa, someone was reading my mind! I was after some for New Years. There's some pretty good advice if you search some of the old threads :)
 
Does he smoke? Do you know he likes cigars? £200 would be a waste if he doesn't!

Where are you based?

I would suggest going to a decent cigar shop, and asking them some questions, they tend to be fairly knowledgable. There are several great places in London, and and there is a nice place in Manchester.

My own suggestion, would be that unless your dad is a big smoker avoid the absolutely massive cigars, they look cool but they are a bit much unless you are used go them. If i was you unless you already know what your dad will like, avoid a big display case for christmas, buy a selection of different cigars, and then get him a case for his birthday when you know what he likes.
 
Yeah Scuzi started a huge thread not that long ago.

I was tempted to pick up a box of monte cristos on my way back from through charles de gaulle airport but was hoping to get a better indication of whats good and where to buy online.

PL, do you have any links for those?

Cheer,

Yes he smokes, yes he likes cigars, most years he has bought a big box of Monte Cristos (approx 25) but like I said I'm looking for something a bit different.

I want it to be a display case as its better than just wrapping one or two cigars up etc.

This is just one part of the present so unless I can find something just right it won't happen or I'll pick some up as I go through CDG.
