Bordellos??? I thought I had the island figured out! Are they up by Cable Beach off the jitney?

Best way to shake the wife is to send her over to Atlantis for a day of beauty at the spa.

Personally, I like the short walk to the Hilton, paying the 10 bucks, using the beach, chairs, towels, and even kayaks, and walking back to the ship.

Graycliff is literally a 10 minute walk up the street. They were very cool about letting me look around and walk into the rolling room.

I didnt get to see the cigar factory as it was closed on Sunday.

Did pick up some smokes though! Hopefully they are worth the price!!!

I like the Espresso and the Grand Cru....blue labels are a bit mild for my taste.

Pricey as hell but yummy.

I think Avelino Lara's falling out with Cubatobacco has something to do with the unauthorized creation of the Trinidad brand just before he left El Laguito and "retired".

I was just in Nassau yesterday on a cruise. I saw this thread before I left but my wife had already booked us on an excursion to Atlantis so I didn't manage to get over to Graycliff.

I did check out Havana Humidor while I was at Atlantis though. It was a nice shop. It wasn't overwhelmingly large but they had a good selection. You could buy anything they had as a single and then they also had boxes, 3-packs, 5-packs, etc. Prices were RIDICULOUS though. According to the salesman I spoke with he said there is a 300% tobacco importation tax in the Bahamas. A Punch PC just to give an example was $12 and I think a Monte #2 was $27.
