A Great Place to Smoke

LasciviousXXX · 05-28-2011, 01:28 PM

Hey CA Fam!

I have finally, FINALLY, found a great B&M in my area to smoke. The AZ Crew, well..... we don't get together often, even though we have quite a few members in the area. Most times I'm relegated to smoking by myself at my house or occasionally at the pool of a buddy's house. Many of the B&M's near me are small and not especially inviting. I usually take my own sticks to smoke when going to a B&M (I always buy one from the shop as well though, manners and all..) so I'm not really going for their selection of cigars.

Well finally a shop has opened literally a mile away from my house. And, unlike 98% of all cigar bars in AZ, they have their liquor license!!! Yes, you heard right, you can enjoy a beer (on tap) or a nice cocktail with your smoke. I know this may be old hat to some but its a novelty to me in this state. There are barely ANY places left in AZ where you can smoke and drink and the same time, in fact I only know of 2. Anyway, they have an amazing bar with more than 15 different types of Vodka, 20 types of Scotch and 12 beers on tap. This is a cigar shop! I was in heaven the first time I stepped foot in it. In fact, here's a pic

I'm really going to have to take a pic of the bar itself as it is quite size-able for a cigar shop.

I went to the shop yesterday and pretty much spent all day there. I hadn't had a one man HERF in awhile so I thought I would play catch up

RA Lusitanos

La China Ideales

And all that was left of an H.Upmann Noella

It was a great time and I got to watch the Hockey game as well, which was icing on the cake. I just thought I'd share my good fortune with my CA Fam as I couldn't be more excited. So if anyone is in the area, I know a great place we can go smoke

I'm soooo... jealous, here in the people's republik of Ontario we can't smoke indoors....

Heck they won't even let us stand 'too' close to a door

Great find, Enjoy !

Cigar Frogs in West Texas! A little bit of Austin in the West Texas area! Way cool!

LasciviousXXX · 05-28-2011, 02:20 PM

Yeah Darryl its getting to be like that here as well. The only places that are exempt in AZ are the B&M's or any place that makes over 50% of its revenue through the sale of tobacco.

dyieldin · 05-28-2011, 04:09 PM

What? A place to call "home"? I am in PHX also. Where is this place that is close to your house, I hope close to mine?

Looks like you found yourself a winner. Enjoy!

Hey XXX

I may have to get the address from you next time I am in Phoenix.

CigarNut · 05-28-2011, 04:46 PM

Nice find Týr! Remember to go home to your wife once in awhile

longknocker · 05-28-2011, 05:10 PM

Congrats, Tyr!

Sounds like you found an amazing place Tyr!

LasciviousXXX · 05-28-2011, 05:31 PM

It really is awesome guys!

Dave, I actually live in the East Valley. The shop is in Gilbert @ the north east corner of Val Vista/Williams Field. Fox Cigar Bar The website has some good pics of the bar itself as well

replicant_argent · 05-28-2011, 07:22 PM

I am quite jealous. Here in the Peoples Republic of Minnesota, the Nannies have pretty much made your experience nearly impossible.

SmokeyJoe · 05-28-2011, 08:25 PM

Excellent! Sounds like the perfect place to hang out, Týr.

Enjoy!!

Agreed, but across the river in Hudson, you can bring your own, as long as your not too crazy about it.

I had a RA Lusitanos the other day. Very nice! Glad to see you have somewhere to smoke and enjoy a nice beverage!

yourchoice · 05-28-2011, 10:05 PM

I checked out the slider images on their homepage. WOW, great find Tyr!

kgoings · 05-28-2011, 10:10 PM

I will have to meet you out there sometime. I am no good at organizing things but I would love to smoke with some AZ BOTL.
