Nov 17th 2011 - Cigar Brand Shirts

Day 5 of gift guide week brings us to shirts and a departure of my normal 1 photo. Today is extra special with 4 pics. Featured today is the Gurkha Evil white long sleeve shirt and the Room 101 Cigars black short sleeve shirt. Both of them are just awesome looking shirts. Cigar shirts are great ways of supporting your favorite brands even when you aren't smoking a cigar. Cigar shirts are unique which means that even though you're giving/getting clothes for Christmas, birthday, etc that the normal "Oh look I got clothes" stigma isn't there. Almost all enthusiast I know would be extremely pleased to receive apparel of their favorite companies.

Nov 14th 2011 - 3 Finger Travel Case

Day 2 of gift guide brings us one of my favorite accessories that I have. Today I'd like to feature a 3 finger cigar travel case. This is a great case to throw some smokes in when heading to work, the bar, wherever. It's small enough to fit in your pocket but will still hold cigars up to a 52 ring gauge with no problems. I've found if you only put 2 in you can get 2 56 ring gauge cigars in them. There are hard shell and soft like the one pictured below. Either way your smokes will protected and kept fresh for hours. This is a perfect gift for any enthusiast. If you are interested in getting a small travel case email service@cigar.com and they will take great care of you. Tell them that TheDailyCigar sent you.



The cigars pictured are the Gurkha Royal Challenge, Tatuaje La Riqueza and the Room 101 Namakubi. I chose these 3 as they have all been very supportive of my blog and wanted to give them some extra publicity.

Nov 5th 2011 - Gurkha Royal Challenge

Today’s cigar is the Gurkha Royal Challenge Robusto in a 5x55 vitola. The Royal Challenge is a new release from Gurkha this year. The Royal Challenge has fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic with a Honduran Habano binder and a Connecticut shade wrapper. I can honestly say this has to be one of the most beautiful bands I’ve ever seen on a cigar. With flavors of pepper and cedar wood that help enhance the creamy buttery tones that are the core of this cigar. I chose this to be today’s cigar as it was on this day in remembrance of the victims of the shooting at Ft Hood on this day in 2009. On that day 13 were killed and 30 others injured in a senseless tragedy. I challenge us all to not forget them and their families that were left behind.
