Ultimate Cigar Gifts for Dad on Father’s Day

Why cigars are perfect gifts for Father’s Day

If your dad is in any way interested in cigars, they can make a fantastic Father’s Day gift.  Each and every handmade premium cigar is a work of art that is crafted with delicate care, and the care for your father is reflected with such an artisanal and luxury gift.

In addition, cigars can often cost a good chunk of change, so getting his favorite smokes as a gift is a great way for him to have some extra indulgences on his special day.  But if you’re not sure what he likes, we made this guide just for you.  Check out our comprehensive list of great cigar gifts for dad!

Father’s Day cigars for new smokers

If your dad is new to the world of smoking, we have a number of popular options that make a great introduction to the practice.  Newcomers are better suited to more mellow to medium bodied smokes, as more full-bodied smokes can be overwhelming to the novice palate, making them great Father’s Day cigars for a newer smoker.

Macanudo Hyde Park is a mellow bodied gem that provides smooth flavors of cream, almonds, and spice.  These flavors come from the aged Dominican and Mexican long fillers, Mexican binder, and golden-brown Connecticut Shade wrapper.  Show your dad the reason Macanudo has been a household name for half a century.

Unlike the machine-made infused cigars and cigarillos often found at convenience stores, ACID Blue Blondie Belicoso is an infused premium cigar that your dad will love.

Top-notch Nicaraguan tobaccos sit inside a Connecticut Shade wrapper, all of which are infused with a stunning combination of herbs, botanicals, essential oils, and spices.  The result is a subtle mellow-medium bodied smoke with bountiful notes of cream, leather, honey, vanilla, dried fruit, cinnamon, and a floral aroma that will please nearby noses.
