LGC Good News - Bad News in Little Havana
 
Little Havana’s Historic El Credito Cigar Factory Closes:td:td:td
This is a sad day but now the good news side:

The famed El Crédito Cigar Factory closed yesterday, although the legendary space will not go to waste: in the coming weeks it will be reinvented as a cigar lounge and retail shoppe.

Thats crazy I was by there a few days ago and they weren't open, I was wondering why. I will say that since General took over, it hasn't been the same.

Since General and Altadis took over not much in the cigar world has been the same.:td

I was there before and after the takeover and I know what you are talking about - before it was a family atmoshpere and after it was a pure commercial atmosphere is how I would describe it.

Either way though I hate to see them starting to quit rolling in Miami as others will likely follow.
