I'll probably smoke some Sutliff Creame Brulee in my Altinok Santa Claus meerschaum pipe.

Yeah I refuse to get into that kind of arrangement. I have a non-negotiable policy of staying home on Christmas day. I like to visit friends and family any time before, including Christmas Eve, but Christmas is the day to spend at home. Any friends or family who are out and about are welcome to stop by so long as they don't mind seeing me drinking scotch in my pajamas all day ?
Something in this Rinaldo the wife bought me for Christmas, and at least one cigar. Probably a Padron.
I will smoke whatever The Secret Santa sends me.
If Santa loses his way, then I will break out a 2012 Dunhill Elizabethan in a Don Carlos Fiamatta 1 note oversize bent billiard around noon, and Balkan Sobranie in a Nanna Ivarsson N2 in the evening.
I will load up my Morgan Briar Cigar and with Arango Balkan Supreme and stick it in my pocket for "Just in case"

I had an old Aro knocking around from when I started smoking a pipe, called Christmas Morning or some such from John B Hayes tobacconist when it was at Fair Oaks Mall. Its got to be all of 15 years old at this point. It was dried out so I revitalized it with some Vanilla Extract and some Dr McGillicuddys Cherry hooch. Smells pretty good, we shall see if it tastes any good on Chrimble
And to answer the original question, Christmas is the time to break out "the good stuff" which is going to mean my most expensive booze and rarest tobacco. I'll probably smoke quite a few bowls of different blends, and it will probably involve at least one smoke of Frog Morton Cellar, Christmas Cheer, and/or a Cuban cigar.
Likely not a holiday blend, though I have two. If I find time for a bowl, it will probably be an English blend in a briar or cob, maybe a briar Calabash. I like to respond to whim and surprise myself. I don't want to be too planned about pipes. I've tried to let go of some of the holiday frenzy to just "go with the flow," and enjoy the moment, like any other hopefully really good Wednesday. Christmas is in my religious tradition (Merry Christmas!) and I also wish others with other holidays in this season good tidings.
Christmas Cheer, Margate, Carolina Red, Giubileo d'Oro, and Holiday Spirit. Not in any particular order, those are just the tins I plan on carrying with me all day
Haven't decided yet...maybe a turkey or a standing rib roast!
I have in mind of smoking WWC Christmas blend 2019 or some Christmas Cheer if I got lucks and have a well cellared secret Santa? ?

What's your address? nana
We have the kids and grandsons over on Christmas Eve. Christmas day, my wife and I go to a local Chinese restaurant for lunch...this will be our 5th year having Chinese on Christmas Day. Surprisingly, the place gets crowded.
What a nice Christmas pipe! I recall seeing it an earlier thread too. I apologize if I'm being daft with the following question. What is the line across Santa's face? The one that crosses his nose and under his eyes.
I popped a tin of 16 Christmas Cheer on Wednesday! Shounded like a pistol going off BTW ?
Probably some of that.
