Need help finding the best place to get a gift for a friend of mine that I got started smoking Cigars. I would like to get him a combo set of a small Humidor, cutter, cigars and all in one deal. If you know of any great deals out there please let me know.

Thanks.

A lot of the sets of stuff are kind of junky. I would think that buying one of those things, but a nice one would be a better gift.
I like nice stuff.

Personally, I'd try somewhere like Holt's to get a combo...

As Winston Churchill once said "I am easly satisfied with the very best." I agree with puffingaway about a better gift. However I do understand having to stay within a budgit.

I bought a nice glass top Romeo y Julieta humidor with a purchace of some R y J cigars from JR Cigars.


R y J Humidor



I see lots of cigar combo sets advertised in several online cigar shops like:

Cigars International

Cigar.com

Famous Smoke Shop

Serious Cigars

Try some of these or do a web search and hopefully you will fine something nice at a good price my friend. Wink

Instead of an el cheapo humidor, get him a cigar caddy that holds 5 or 10 cigars. Those are useful to everyone. Then, you can throw in 5 primo cigars, a lighter, cutter, etc.

I have several cigar caddys made by Otter Box and they are OUTSTANDING for traveling and are darn near nuke proof but as far as long term storage they are not they great they are sealed air tight except for the larger models that have a valve for air travel. I take mine to the field, white water canoeing , horseback riding and camping, and when I deploy. They are perfict for this and would make a great gift. Wink

I would echo Raven's suggestion about the Otter box. Check them out at Otter BoxesThey come in varying sizes/capacities, and have a small humidifying device built in. Not the most elegant, but they do the job quite well. I bought one at my tobacconist when I first began smoking cigars -- I think I paid about $25 for one that holds around 15 cigars.
