Like others, I have never been. They just opened one in JAX that is about about hour drive for me. I looked at their website and they say it's 6,200 sqft and includes a lounge with a full bar, TVs, yada, yada, yada.

An hour going through JAX after have a drink or five is not the best idea in my head. So, I doubt I'll be stopping by anytime soon.

St. Louis and Orlando are slated to get one each this year too, if my Internet snooping and cigar rep street snitch pals can be trusted.

Orlando would be ambitious wouldn't it? Quite a cigar scene there already.

So like I posted elsewhere, this new location is now sorta kinda open. You can buy cigars (with a credit card, not cash at this time), sit down inside or outside to smoke it. However not much of the inventory is priced yet. Plus, for now no liquor license, doesn't look like even soft drinks available.

The staff is trying to be helpful but after about 40 years of knocking around cigar shops I just find them pesky. Hopefully they'll learn to read their customers.

On the plus side the ventilation system seems top notch.
