Fun In The SUN Finally !

Now that summer has officially begun, we hope you’re all having some long awaited and well deserved fun in nicer weather. And of course, enjoying your favorite cigars outdoors in whatever wide open and inviting spaces that are “Cigar Friendly” in your area.

Many of our Cigar Thief members have told me they really enjoy getting together with fellow cigar lovers to sample something new to everyone in their group. Some tie this activity with BBQ’s, Cars & Coffee events and televised Racing or Sporting events. Out here in Arizona, we just had a Memorial Day Race party. I recorded the Indy 500 and Formula One Monaco races and invited a bunch of great folks over to our home. With the temperatures still in the 90’s for now and ultra low humidity, stepping outside in the shade with a cold beverage and a cigar is very enjoyable. Doing it with a few avid cigar smokers makes it even better. 

As we spoke about the high prices of just about everything including gas, which in Arizona in now over $5 a gallon and still rising, I made a suggestion to my two buddies. “How about trying a nice cigar you’ve never had?” I had taken the bands off some Alec Bradley Spirit of Cuba Natural Churchills and handed them out. Everyone lit up and quickly began enjoying the mild to medium body and great aroma of these mystery smokes. “Boy, if I had the money, I’d smoke these every day.” and “I guess when you pay more, you get more.” were the first remarks from my two pals. After about an hour as the cigars approached their nubs, I informed them they were smoking a $4 cigar. Needless to say, they were pleasantly surprised and impressed.

As much as I love and enjoy Super Premiums and countless high line cigars, when good weather arrives and sticks around many of us smoke more cigars during the month. Of course, some folks are willing and able to smoke what they want whenever they want and I tip my hat to these fortunate people. For me and many, many others, enjoying a pricey favorite on the weekends is still doable. But many of us have discovered the amazing array of affordable, value priced bundles of hand made premiums offered by many manufacturers.

If you’re a veteran of Cigar Thief, you’re probably well versed in this great category. If you’re a newcomer to our humble, family owned cigar marketplace, check out my “Bundles of Joy” article from March 2020 to catch up on all the choices awaiting you of truly affordable, terrific smokes for chump change.

Cheers,
Richie
