Looking for a house warming present..

[kyleb]

My brother just bought his first house, I'm looking to buy something revolving around cigars, wine, culinary arts, or boats.

Romeo y Julieta Wine Rack Humidor combo has caught my attention..

Any input or ideas?

If he likes to cook, a set of good knives will get used and appreciated.

large casket iron pan.
Black Pepper grinder.
two steaks.

Something tasty from one of our sponsors.

Best one could be, a mortgage payment.

 

[kyleb]

Great ideas..

A mortgage payment, oh man, wouldn't that be freaking sweet?

$4,200, I'll pass :hanghead:

 

[Moro]

A Le Creuscet pan OR a Henckel knife

A good bottle of wine

A super premium (or two to smoke one with him) or CC

A book about boats

That should cover it all!

If he doesn't own a grill yet, that would be a sweet gift if you can afford that much.

Otherwise, I think a wine cooler/humidor combo unit is a really sweet idea--especially if you live close enough to come over and enjoy them with him often

 

[kyleb]

Thanks for the ideas everyone. I think I'll be using some of them down the road.

I ended up picking this up, having it shipped to his door. I wish I were buying it for my man-cave!

I know it doesn't quite compare to an Avallo or Aristocrat, but he isn't "as into" cigars as most of us.

Dude that rocks, did I mention that I just moved into my house...........5 years ago.

Nice looking cabinet.

 

[amgracing]

thats a great looking cabinet

 

[uncelnino]

There is nothing wrong with that, as a matter of fact I have two of them in my house. They are great. Good purchase.

 

[Moro]

Gorgeous cabinet, mate!

Here's my gift:

http://www.federalhousingtaxcredit.com/

Have him talk to a tax professional and/or financial advisor about taking advantage of a $7500 interest-free loan to use towards his new mortgage courtesy of the US Treasury. He does have to fall under the modified adjusted gross income range.

Pretty freaking nice gift! I think I got my sister a candle...

 

[smokinghole]

I haven't seen it mentioned but I was at one time looking to get that R&J humidor and after a friend checked it out he said it wasn't the best. So just get a sweet humidor or a real wine rack. The humidor pictured is nice, and there's tons of nice wineracks to be had online.

well, for a guy that's not "as into" cigars as most of us, he better get into them way deep if he's gonna fill that thing up!

IT HOLDS 3000 CIGARS!!!

I'd like to think that i'm pretty big into cigars but i don't have near that many!

I'd hate to see the things the guy is really into. If he's got a boat, it must be and 85 footer!

Ha!

Super nice housewarming gift regardless! well done.

 

[Saully]

What a great gift! Does it come with a certificate for 3000 cigars to fill it up?

He has a boat, but its more of our familes boat, and its a 40'.

The boat he drives for work, is 115' though.

He's a great brother, certainly deserving of the present

 

[Saully]

What kind of work does he do that he drives a 115' boat?

 

[bballbaby]

tug boat...my guess

 

[kyleb]

Passenger boat, from Marina Del Ray to Catalina Island, holds about 120 people.
