Cigars are a fantastic gift for veterans, giving them the sense of luxury they deserve. Plenty of soldiers will agree there is nothing better than having a few moments in the evening to kick back and enjoy the tasty notes from a top-quality cigar after an action-packed day.

Whether you’re looking for a gift for someone currently serving in the military or who has previously served, you can find something special at JR Cigars.

Veterans Day is a special holiday set aside for us to give recognition and celebrate our military service members. On this day, we thank them and show appreciation for their dedication, bravery, and loyalty to our country. The date falls on November 11th, which is the anniversary of the end of World War I.

Ceremonies are held yearly across the country at symbolic sites, such as the Tomb of the Unknown Solider, which welcomes large crowds every Veterans Day. Floral tributes are laid on graves at memorial sites, which has become a longstanding tradition.

There are plenty of ways to observe the holiday with your family at home. One of the easiest and most direct ways to observe the holiday is to fly your American flag high to show your support and gratitude. It is also appreciated to place the American flag in public places to show your support. Another way to celebrate is by donating to an organization that supports veterans and donate clothing, personal care items, or anything veterans might need when fulfilling their duties.

Veterans Day is an important day to make veterans know you appreciate the hard work they do. The military has a longstanding relationship with tobacco products, and many of our vets happen to be cigar smokers. Consider picking up some of our gift options, such as luxury cigars and complementary cigar accessories, to show your gratitude to the vet in your life.

At JR Cigars, we have complemented our extensive range of premium cigars with a vast array of cigar lighters.

A lighter can impact your smoking experience, so it’s essential to have the right type of lighter for toasting a cigar. JR’s extensive selection of lighters includes prestigious brands such as Xikar, S.T. Dupont, and Prometheus. You won’t struggle to find the perfect flame for your foot — sizes range from large to slim, pocket-friendly lighters, single, double, and triple-flame jet lighters to curved flames, which offer suitability for your traditional smoking pipe.

An ashtray is a perfect gift for a veteran who enjoys lighting up a stogie. Enhance their premium cigar experience by allowing them to give their cigar a rest moment after each draw. Cigars benefit from resting moments as it helps keep an even burn, so they will need an ashtray to hand whenever they light a premium cigar.

Our cigar ashtrays are available in various styles, from old-school to modern, suited for every preferred style. They are available in various materials, including premium glass and crystal, which makes them perfect for gifting.

Show your appreciation to a vet by gifting them a new cigar humidor. We have a great range available, offering a variety of styles and sizes.

Allow your giftee to protect their premium cigars and ensure you enjoy them at their best quality with excellent storage. At JR, we offer the finest selection from the world’s best manufacturers. Find an array of material choices, including clear glass, exotic wood, and antique humidors. Whatever the occasion, we can accommodate all gifting and storage requirements for premium cigars.
