Cigar lounge in your town?

[chrisboy]

Roham,

We have one just like that back here in Manila. It's called Churchill's Cigars and Wine. A very cozy place, with dim lights, wooden interior, and soft leather couches. Perfect ambiance for unwinding and relaxing at the end of the day. Been there a couple of times to smoke a good cigar with some port or wine. I like it because the place is not too crowded. They sell only Cubans, and the selection is pretty good and plenty. They have a little walk-in humi where you could pick the smokes yourself. Some wines from Italy, France, Chile and Australia are available as well, along with some port, and spirits like cognac, brandy and whisky.

The place is not cheap, but if you're willing to splurge a bit and treat yourself to the good life, this cigar bar and lounge has it.

San Antonio has at least one that I am aware of because I live close to it. Great selection of cigars...pretty much pay retail tho...but nice atmosphere.

7?! Do you ever frequent any of them?

There a plenty of cigar shops of varying quality and selection in the greater Sacramento area. (I live about 40 minutes north of Sac.)

As for cigar lounges . . . there are two that I know of but it has been years since I went to the one in downtown Sac. (Harlows) When I was there over 5 years ago it was a nightclub downstairs and a cigar lounge upstairs.

The one I frequent now is in Loomis, CA (about 20 minutes north os Sacramento) and it is called Tobacco Republic. Small place with a couple chairs and two soft leather sofas. It has a huge walk-in humidor . . . about the size of a large bedroom. Great selection (no cubans . . . damn the US policies ). The owner, Ron, is great and has taught me alot about cigars and the different kinds and flavors. Apparently he even owns a factory in the Dominican Republic! He has even given me free sticks on more than one occasion - very nice guy indeed!

I wish all of you were as lucky as I am to have a shop/owner in your area like Tobacco Republic and Ron.

And you sit down? Do you order a drink? Or just smoke a cigar? Or just buy and run?:)

I was reading last night about some cigar lounges that offer lockers for rent in their humidor! Thats a pretty neat idea!

Yep, and I'm a permanent fixture in one of them.
