This reminds me of one night, several years go, when I went for a walk on a perfect, warm, Colorado night in the suburbs near DU where I used to live. I had a great cigar (I can't recall what it was...probably an Avo something or other back then). I spent the entire cigar watching the sky, listening to the album Pharos by SETI on my iPod. The combination of everything was amazing. I'll never forget it...we live in an amazing universe, and we are lucky for being alive and able to appriciate it.

Usually on my screened patio with something good to drink to compliment it. Rain or not. Otherwise several local establishments like Corona Cigar Co. or Seminole Tabacco Co. in Lake Mary.

There is no other time I enjoy more than the one where I can enjoy a good cigar with nothing but the sound of crickets in the night air or the water in a stream below me (flyfishing)..... Being outdoors does it best for me when I am enjoying a cigar.

When it's cold in Kentucky (like recently) I head over to Turfway Park to enjoy some fine cigars and do a little wagering on the horses. Even if I lose all my bets I'm guaranteed to have a few great cigars.

Sounds great, especially the Guinness!

Buckhead Cigar located in the back of Dantana's restaurant in Atlanta. They have a great cigar selection and is on of the few places left in Atlanta where you can enjoy a fine cut of prime rib and followed by a cigar.
As good a place as any for the first post, I suppose.
I have a great shop here in Birmingham, Cigars and More, that has a friendly staff, a great selection, good prices and an awesome smoking room, outfitted with big leather chairs, a 60" HDTV, free WiFI and a honey of an air circulation system.
I spend far too much time there.
Of course now that it's warming up, I like to sit on the patio and enjoy the weather and a good smoke.
“The end of a good smoke is a little saddening. In some regard, it’s a bit like losing a best friend who had time to sit and listen.”
When the weather is nice I sit out back of my house with a glass of port or a cup of java. Otherwise, I smoke at the lounge in Cigars International in Bethlehem, PA.
Ahoy me hearties!

In New York City, where a smoke is viewed as if you had a mortal disease.
Like most, I have a smoke while walking the dog that should only take 30 minutes but runs to more than an hour so I can truly reach satisfaction of enjoying a great robusto.
But, lately I have been going to a great new cigar lounge called Habana Hut located in Bayside, Queens.
The Habana Hut is great for me since I love to indulge my taste for tobacco. It offers a lap of luxury, with complimentary cappuccino or espresso coffee, and I watch my favorite show on one of the store's plasma TVs.
The store is located just off Bell Blvd. at 214-09 41st Ave.
I have met all three owners - Bill Mooney; Dave Feller, also of Bayside, and Steve Capalanotto of Flushing - who have been big-time cigar smokers for the past 10 to 15 years.

In the Summer it's outdoors. My garage is also my smoking lounge. In the winter it's at the local B&M that has a smoking lounge. Also it's in my car during the cold months.
