Cigarmedics – HumidiMeter $29.99
This very popular device has been showing up in social media cigar posts since it hit the market last year. We all have humidors and we do are best to keep them maintained at a desired Relative Humidity using humidifiers, Boveda packs, beads, Cigar Oasis’, etc. – but do you really know if those cigars are maintaining the proper moisture content? Or in more scientific terms, Equilibrium Moisture Content (EMC). This patent pending device is designed to measure the moisture content in your cigar and convert it to an easily readable Relative Humidity. So now all you need to do is gently stab the foot of you cigar and you will know if it is ready to be enjoyed. We did a detailed review of this which you can read here.

Victms1975 CigarArt by Jessi Flores
Who doesn’t love cigar swag and art, especially when it comes from renowned cigar artist Jessi Flores. Jessi’s site victms1975.com offers loads of cool custom art to choose from and I am sure you don’t mind supporting a great Brother of the Leaf. Jessi also has a line of products branded as Phuck Cancer that uses the proceeds to help his daughter who is seriously ill, and other children in Nicaragua, that are in need of medical care, so that alone may be reason to get some gifts in this season of giving.
The Bugatti Lighter
One the coolest new lighters to hit the market has been the Bugatti Vulcan and Mirage lighters. These are not you normal refillable lighter. This one uses a special mini pod of butane that pushes into the cavity of the lighter and gives you up to 30 days of cigar lighting based on an average of 2 cigars/day. The butane pods cost just $2.59/unit and replacement is a snap. It produces a twin pointpoint torch flame that I find is perfect to ignite your cigar. At just $99.99, the Bugatti lighter comes with an extra replaceable burner unit that you can replace in seconds so you never have to be with out a lighter. Additional burner units cost just $14.99. To see it in action checkout the article we did on it here.

Colibri V-Cut Cigar Cutter $39.00
Stogie Press follower, Andrew P McCreary, noted that the Colibri V cut gives the best V cut in his opinion. You can order this beautiful cutter direct from Colibri if you can’t find in your local brick and mortar.
The Colibri V-Cut is contoured for beauty and to fit securely in your hand. The stainless steel blade is spring-loaded and is purposefully designed with acute and deep angle, so as to penetrate up to 7mm into the cap to provide a rich and robust draw.
The guided action of the blade runs smoothly, ensuring an easily accomplished deep and clean cut. Enjoy the V-Cut on large 60+ ring gauge cigars—and it’s also great on a torpedo.
