Cigars Direct Chinese Calendar Cigars celebrate the signs of the Chinese zodiac. Each year, a different animal is highlighted until all 12 have had their moment in the sun, and then the cycle repeats again. Here’s the full list from 2022 onward:
If you are born in a particular year, that’s your Chinese zodiac symbol. Instead of western astrology, which divides the year into 12 segments, all people born in a particular year are born under that sign. For example, everyone born in 1982 is a dog. And much like the zodiac, we’re all familiar with in the U.S., each sign has certain characteristics associated with it. In 2022, the Year of the Tiger, we celebrate people who are ferocious, strong, and brave.
Many cigar makers create special blends each year to honor those who are born under that particular sign. Cigars Direct Chinese Calendar Cigars are built along similar lines, using tobaccos and designs hand-picked to suit those born each year. You can also find a wealth of special releases and limited edition cigars created by big brands for each Chinese zodiac sign. Davidoff, Plasencia, and Cohiba are a few prime examples. You can also pair these with limited edition alcohol and spirits from companies that want to get in on the fun.
You can expect lots of red and gold and lucky numbers, and designs that are right at home at any Chinese New Year celebration.
