    Celebratory stick

    What’s your go to, your universe is coming together, success story stick?

    Nothing yet but for the last 7 years we’ve been working on a plan to move back to the east coast and it looks like things “may” finally be coming together and I’ve decided I want to celebrate when it does. I want 1 good final cigar in Saskatchewan and another to start things off right back home. Thinking I’ll order it soon so it has some time to rest. Not a big pepper fan, like coffee/chocolate/sweet flavours all with real palate coating heavy smoke output levels.

    Suggestions?

    Normally I'd say something I've held on to for some time, or something gifted to me by a fellow BOTL, or something that ties to the occasion.
    But you said "buy".
    So, do you recall the first smoke you had in Saskatchewan? Even if it was a rocket, that'd be cool.
    Anything that captures your feelings of your time there?
    If you're going to spring for a pricier stick, make sure its something you're familiar with; Nothing like lighting up a $$ stick and finding out you hate it while trying to commemorate a special occasion.

    Best stick I have or can buy locally. So what ever you have access to higher end fuente or padron or maybe some cc for you up north where they are easier to get.

    My go to (and it's right up your flavor lane) is a Padron 1964 in pyramide. Nothing super fancy, but it fits the bill when every I need an excuse.

    The Padron Black TAA would be my choice right now if I could get a couple. Of course they're $15-20 here in the states so that's like $50 up there, right ?
    No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

    I think my first here is Sask was a Quorum, would be fitting to finish out Sask with one. I like that idea.

    I thought about maybe getting some RASS as that was probably my favourite cigar I’ve had yet but thought I would see what you guys consider a celebratory cigar. Those Padron’s sound good.

    Not if you bombed him one they ain't...
    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    It's hard for me to suggest a non-peppery smoke, as that's my preferred style--kick you in the teeth.

    That being said, I'd say that any Dominican stick, particularly Fuentes, would be a great fit. A Maduro Hemingway Masterpiece? It's a gorgeous stick.
