When I was looking through my product catalogs for gifts for my Dad, I was remembering when I was younger and one of my favorite memories was lighting or cutting my Dad’s Cigars. Although he would never let me actually smoke one, he would sometimes give me an unlit one to hold and pretend to smoke so I could feel grown up like him and also because it was a bonding thing for us. Cigar smoking is a bonding activity and cigars are something many people use to celebrate.
People buy cigars to celebrate a baby being born, a wedding announcement, a bachelor party, an anniversary, a guys night out, a Vegas trip and pretty much anything that is fun and festive. People don’t always associate cigars with cancer or smelling horrible, especially the cheap ones, but they associate it with class, fun and bonding with one another. Cigars are an amazing way to not only create long lasting memories and bond with a heterosexual male, or a lesbian, and if you want to take cigar smoking or have a cigar aficionado or someone who just enjoys one every once in a while, you can go above and beyond giving them a zippo or pack of cigars and give them a humidor and if you really want to go above and beyond what you need to, fill the humidor up with high end or a mixed assortment of cigars and a cutter. When I was looking for a gift for my Dad, although he actually quit smoking cigars and doesn’t keep any in his house, I saw the cherrywood cigar humidor pictured above and immediately thought of him.
One of my favorite memories of being a kid was hanging out with him and talking while he smoked a cigar. I remember the smell, the way it puffed and how cool and mature he looked smoking. Although I know it is bad for you and can kill you, back then it was one of the coolest things on earth and since we were never close or had bonding time, I always remember these evenings and still hold on to those memories today.
Although I am opposed to smoking now a days, I used to be a smoker, I do have to admit, on a special occasion I will probably have a cigar. One of those occasions will be if I get married.
Not only will I probably have to get stuck with a Waspy or Firey Latino Father in Law, but I’ll have to do something important to impress him, especially if he is anti gay or ends up being one of those, no one is good enough for my kid Father in Laws. You all know the kind I am talking about. The nightmare kind you always see in wedding movies where they are never satisfied and make the Groom’s life hell. Chances are that I will probably get stuck with one of these types of Father in Laws and one of the ways I am going to try and break him in is by bringing over a nice wooden humidor, even maybe one that isn’t overpriced but still looks classy like the cherrywood humidor above, fill it with a large assortment of nice cigars (the assortment is so I can almost ensure there will be one he likes) and also pair it with a bottle of scotch or brandy, depending on what my Partner would say his Dad prefers.
I love Cherrywood and Mahogony and a Cherrywood or Mahogony Humidor to me screams class and even if you don’t smoke or your Father in Law doesn’t smoke, Humidors still make great gifts for the Father of the Bride or gifts for the Father of the Groom. Humidors can be used for storage, to hide things from his Wife, to store pictures or pretty much anything else that you wouldn’t want people to find.
I love the idea of giving a humidor for a gift and think that it makes a perfect gift for the Father of the Bride or the Father of the Groom to not only bond with him but show him you can be thoughtful and you made an effort to win him over. Again, I am opposed to smoking, but I think that a cigar to bond with your future Father in Law is a perfect gift and way to build a relationship with him as well as show him you have some class and made an effort. You may want to do a quick check with your Partner first though just to double check and make sure he was never addict as that could actually be a bad thing and you may want to rethink giving him a humidor for a gift to bond with him. Anyways, order your cherrywood humidor here.
