Let’s cut to the chase. Your favorite cigar smoker probably does NOT want another ashtray, lighter, or flask.

Once you get past the flashy, useless objects online or at your local drugstore, there is still a host of holiday gifts that can be home runs.

Here are some of our favorites…

The Cigar Lover’s Holiday Gift Guide 2024

Proof WalletThe best small wallet to carry. Proof Wallet.

Believe it or not, every cigar smoker is concerned with pocket space — making it a great gift for a cigar lover.

Whether it is the size of the cutter or the combo of lighter and cutter that throw someone off, pocket space is at a minimum.

The odds of you picking out their next favorite space-saving cutter is unlikely, so go a different route that should be a hit – and it comes with a lifetime warranty.

The Proof wallet is the smallest wallet known to mankind*

*Ok, not sure if that is really true, but if there is one smaller, I have not seen it. 

The footprint is barely bigger than a card and packed with features including…

  • 2.25″ W x 3.75″ H x ~0.5″ T (Based on card load)
  • Materials: Top Grain Leather or Carbon Fiber | Aerospace Grade Aluminum
  • Card Capacity: Up to 25 Cards & 20 Bills
  • RFID Blocking
  • Lifetime Warranty (A real one, not a deceptive “limited” lifetime warranty. If you have issues, we’re solving them immediately)

Retail: $125. – Available directly from Proof HERE.

 

Humidification system for cigar smokers. Tower Humidor. Sonic Cabinet Humidifier

This Cabinet humidification system is the one we have been waiting for for some time—sleek, efficient, and state-of-the-art.

Created by Ron Lesseraux, it checks all the boxes. As a matter of fact, we have been testing this sleek baby for the better part of 2024 and could not be more impressed.

Features include…

  • Dual Zone Detection (allows the humidifier to stop misting while running the fan only to distribute humidity in the enclosure).
  • Fill Manually or Automatically
  • Internal UV light to fight bacteria buildup
  • Dual Voltage

Retail: $349 – Available online HERE and through some retailers.

 

BovedaBoveda humidification.

For the love of all that is holy, stop trusting your cigars to the same wet green brick florist uses to hold flowers at your brothers third wedding.

When it comes to cigar accessories, Boveda packs may be one of the most game-changing tools in the last 20 years.

I can literlly hear Ron Popeil in my head saying, “Set it, and Forget It.” – and that would be correct.

Your desktop humidor and travel humidor should not be without them. It’s the perfect practical gift which is why it made it to our cigar lover’s holiday gift guide.

Retail: Under $20 (4-pack). Find at any retailer or online HERE.

 

Phone cases by Carved are one-of-one and look great. Carved Phone Case

Cigar smokers love their uniqueness and Carved has just the phone case.

Why? Because this craft company only creates each case one-of-one.

That means you won’t have any of those embarrassing moments where you show up to prom wearing the same outfit (I think we said too much).

And, although Carved is well-known for their phone cases, they have a host of other products with their own unique touch.

Retail: About $50 (Traveler Case). Purchase directly from Carved HERE.

 

Gift Certificate From GoldBellyThe PieCaken is just one of the many items you will find at Goldbelly.

Not everyone wants something to carry around, protect their phone, or keep their cigars at opimum humidity. Some people are just hungry…

…and that is where GoldBelly comes in.

You may want to order a crazy PieCaken* for the holiday but let’s not discount some name brand hits you can have all year long.

*The PieCaken is a monster of desserts. pecan pie on the bottom, pumpkin pie in the middle, and spice cake on top, all layered together with cinnamon buttercream and topped with apple pie filling! The sugar high alone is risky :) 

Maybe you want something from Brooklyn Bagel or Snow’s BBQ. What about Peter Luger or Pinks Hot Dogs?

You name it, Goldbelly can ship it to you.

With all those choices, unless you know what you want…a gift card is the way to go!

Retail: Varies – Find online HERE.

    You know Fred wants his Carved Phone Case.

    Looking into that sonic humidifier, that seems much easier than the packs.

      Sonic is great for tower humidors!
