Reviews of Cigar Factory New Orleans
Jean Siverly
My husband loves his cigars so upon his first visit to the Big Easy we had to go see them roll their own. Fascinating process. The girl who waited on us was very helpful and knowledgeable. My husband and son loved these cigars. Nice aroma to me as the second hand smoker. Will be ordering from the website now that we're home.
Randal Ernst
Great value here. Excellent customer service, you can watch cigars being made, and you can light up if so inclined inside the store (aka, factory). Our box with packed with fresh tobacco leaves, which was a nice touch. They did kick us out at 6pm (posted closing time is 6:30pm), but when it's time to go, it's time to go. This is not the Bourbon Street store, which closes later.

I’ve visited the Cigar Factory before as a quick visual, yet I randomly decided to purchase one from here this visit. The gentleman whom assisted me was Phenomenal (if I get his name I will edit and add). He was the definition of an aficionado. Add courteous and engaged to that.
The visit was late in the evening and so there were no cigar makers which wasn’t a big deal at all. I did learn that all of the cigars that they sell are their own brand and no others. The humidor was still diverse in its selections. I appreciate the seating areas and chess boards for those into it.
Cigar Factory was very clean with reasonable pricing. They sell other products as as well.
I purchased the Vieux Carre cigar, which I wasn’t a fan of. It had a strong spicy flavor to it. I’d absolutely try others still.
Cigar Factory is worthy of another visit.
Evan Pardi
James was super great and guided me through the rolling process as well as their unique Brazilian leaf tobacco. Incredibly delicious smoke and very cool staff
Karen A.
Cigars are made right there. You can watch. There is a little cigar museum and aging area as well. There are many types of cigars and many different flavors. Staff are great!

I didn't know what to expect, but if you want to see actual cigar handrollers rolling cigars this is the only place I've witnessed it as a cigar smoker. It was truly great to finally see it live. The store was so NOLA meets Latin American cigar culture. The shop reeked of cigar history. It reminded me of a bar in the interior of Latin America, where one spends the day drinking and smoking cigars. The humidor is small, due to these guys producing their limited selection of cigars. The staff was slightly pushy while bring helpful, but nothing just focusing on a few sticks won't cure. I quickly noticed that few of their sticks were not under $9; most averaged $13 and more-pretty pricey. I had been reminded by a Houston attorney who has taken to rolling his own cigars as a hobby, this was a must visit. I actually enjoyed watching the 3-4 rollers as they went about their craft. But, as far as the cigars, I can report much since I purchased the Tres Hermanos & Social Club. The Tres Hermanos was too mild for me, but the tobbacco wasn't harsh like so many imported cigars, it was like they were clean tobacco. Not for me, but I'm glad I tried a few. They have a 2nd shop of Burboun Street, but that like a foodstand, you only go there if you know what you want and could come in buy it and go-that spot real put on the hard sell, but again, its a business. So, while the more inexpensive smokes weren't for me, maybe I'll try the more costly smokes down the road. Also Cigar Factory ships anywhere.
David Zeledon
One of the few places in Nola that rolls the sticks in front of you. Can also special order them while you lounge around and have a drink.
Evin Jones
Picked up some cigars today they had a great selection and hand roll them in front of you 100% recommend
Chris G
Customer service was awesome. Order was wrong and Dani made it right! Thanks again.
Norman Cochran
Great house cigars. 2 locations. You can see them rolled at the one not on Bourbon Street.
Robert Jackson
Very nice place to visit with very outstanding customer service!!!!! Will be visiting again soon to purchase more of their products. What an amazing first time experience
John Holcepl
Great place for a cigar smoker. Interesting ro watch the cigars being made.
Akil Bjorn (AK Comedy)
Every other shop is just a cigar shop. Cigar Factory only sells what they roll themselves. Fantastic quality, everyone I spoke to was able to answer every question I had, also very friendly.
It'll be the only place I go to buy and smoke on my next visit.
Paul Hamilton
Beautifully crafted cigars insight with both a good selection and great customer service.
Sharon Geuea Jones
Lots of windows to people watch while smoking great cigars.
John L
Fresh, hand rolled cigars, watch the process right Infront of you, owner knows everything about cigars, super friendly
Emma Thomas
Great selection of cigars and friendly, knowledgeable staff.
Kris Nelson
By far my favorite thing to do in Nola (and I have been coming here for years). Get a cigar here and an Abita from 2 doors down (this is a cigar store, not a bar) and sit at one of the available tables and watch the people walk by. It’s epic. These cigars are fresh and reasonably priced.
Brad Bradford
I have been smoking these signature luxury cigars for 18 years and they have never disappointed. Cigar Factory is very distinguished and amazing. If you love a perfect cigar, try Cigar Factory! The staff is super knowledgeable and friendly. Sarah & Keith always go above and beyond to make sure their customers a satisfied. Everything about Cigar Factory NOLA is excellent and represent excellence!!
Like I told my friend, “try these and you will never go back!” And they have not turned back yet
Nina
Excellent cigars. Very interesting to watch the cigars being made. Manager was very accommodating.
Brad Hall
If you love a great cigar don’t miss out on visiting the cigar factory
Hector Gonzales Jr
Wowzers! In all the research I did on Google, in preparation for our trip to New Orleans, I never even thought of a Cigar Factory. I figured I would have a stogie or two on the cruise ship and overpay for the opportunity to enjoy one or two sticks.
We were walking the quarter, and trying to get to Cafe Du Mond. Not surprisingly, the place was packed! So, we kept walking and walking and walking. As we crossed the street, I saw the sign for this shop and I HAD to drop in.
We walk in and it was quite a sight to be seen. There were a few guys seated behind the counter, rolling cigars from scratch! I mean, where in the US (other than Florida of course) can you see this happening in person? I was just blown away. Before I even walked into their humidor, I just assumed an operation like this would have to be costly. But, that was not the case at all!
I spoke with the Sales guy for a few minutes and he asked me a bunch of really good questions about what kind of sticks I like, what I don't like, etc. It was quite nice actually. He started to show me their sticks and the price was super low, in comparison to Cali prices.
I bought a few Coronas for the cruise and decided to try it out before going big and buying a box of 10 or even 25. I picked up a Connecticut wrapper, as well as the Maduro.
Once I was on the ship, as luck would have it, The Humidor Cigar lounge was on the same floor as my stateroom! So, I dropped in to discuss the stick with our extremely knowledgeable bartender, and we had a wonderful chat about how cool it was to have a fresh, hand rolled stick from NO! He knows his stuff, and he did the sound test, to listen for crackling. None! He did the smell test, as any cigar aficionado shall do, and he loved it. He then did the press test, and he noticed the stick was superbly fresh, well kept in proper humidity, and we lit the sucker up!
Holy smokes (pun intended) was this a fun night! The cigar was absolutely incredible. Wonderful flavors early on, more intense flavors as the cigar burned and even more flavors as I got closer to the end of it. It was exceptional, and for less than $10, I have to rate this stick at the top of my all time list.
My bartender, Vladen, was clearly into cigars and he was treating us very well on our trip. After we'd been on the ship for 4 days, I decided to gift him the Maduro, just to make sure the brand gets more people smoking it.
On our return trip to NO, I HAD to drop in again. I spoke with James again and we had a wonderful chat about cigars, food, where locals dine, what to do on the next cruise if I want to store some sticks, etc. It was fantastic.
I bought 8 Coronas, Connecticut wrapped. That's my preference. I also picked up a few Maduro sticks, since I didn't get to try the last one. And, of course, we had a chat about Cigarillos, which a few of the gals on the ship enjoyed. He turned us on to a pack of those suckers as well. 5 for $10!
I got home from our trip yesterday, and I had the first small stick. Sweet, savory goodness and it burned so well. No dragging, no uneven burn, and it was such a wonderful treat while I grilled up a Snake River Farms ribeye.
I love this place, and to all the folks working hard to produce some amazing cigars. Thank you! Thanks for all you do, and for providing such an amazing opportunity and wonderful experience.
John
Cool little place but they don't even let their customers use the bathroom which is a little difficult when you have just lit a cigar in the Cigar Factory but now have to figure a way to get into a neighboring restaurant to use a restroom!
Balazs Nagy
Friendly guys, cool to see the torcedor in action. Picked up a nice stick
Matthew Peregoy
Loved sitting and playing dominos while enjoying a cigar with my wife. Plenty of people watching as French Quarter Fest was happening. Good selection of their own hand rolled cigars. Very cool to watch them being rolled on site. I would come back again if I found myself in New Orleans again. Staff was friendly and knew thier products.
Ervin Hunter
Great cigar store. I took advantage for the sell they had in cigars. You couldn’t beat the prices there. Especially with each cigar hand rolled in house. The staff was cool and even the owner was there and we were able to hangout with her for a bit.
Very enjoyable atmosphere and very chill spot to smoke a stick.
I will be back and also order online.
Ian Foley
Super cool, local spot for hand rolled cigars.
Jim Hulliberger
Stopped in on vacation. Nice selection of cigars hand-rolled onsite. Sampled a Congac Dipped right there watching people walk past. So chill. Nice little stick for a short break from touristing. Looking forward to the rest of the purchase when I get home. Picked up a couple of nice looking vintage sticks and a few Conneticut and Maduro sticks for variety.
Helpful staff. The masters wrapping these sticks were amazing to watch.
Elizabeth Wright
Great place to stop and have a cigar after a long day of sightseeing. Enjoyed watching one of the employees hand wrap the cigars.
Shawn Baptiste
Their got the very best Cigers you can smoke and just relax with.
Dan Lichok
Always enjoy a good selection of fine cigars when I'm in NOLA. Prices are good for a box of 25 and you can mix up your selections. Highly recommend visiting and if you are there over the weekend, enjoy a smoke and watch as they make the cigars.
Stacy Roumas
This was our first time to a shop like this. The personalized service was excellent. I would highly recommend this place to all our friends and will definitely return when back in town.
Matj2ix88 “Matj2ix88”
Friendly staff gave us a quick tour and showed us around from the moment we walked in. Great ambiance and a very comfortable place to smoke in! Cigars are great tasting too! This is a must visit for smokers in NOLA. Can't find places like this around! Its awesome to see them rolling cigars right in front of you, and watching the whole process! I'm definitely coming back!
M Eli6
Alot of history in this place. Cigars are awesome & I appreciate the guys taking the time to answer questions & be very informative. They were friendly & respectful & I truly enjoy the experience of buying in person for something new or a favorite. I love seeing the guys rolling up fresh cigars & it adds to the excitement of buying. I definitely recommend this place as a must try.
Carolyn Bretl
Friendly knowledgeable staff! I was able to watch them roll the cigars in house and an employee gave me a tour of the cigars in the humidor room. After all of this, I was blown away at how reasonable the prices were. I highly recommend this shop!!
Jeffery Bowden
They take cigar enjoyment to the highest level. A well stocked inventory with a steady influx of tobacco. The Cigar Factory never disappoints.
Doug Haggerty
Great selection of cigars! They have professional rollers in the store giving demonstrations as well. Their explanations were great of each step and the finished product is even better! The one I had was a tasty treat! So good I went back and bought a whole box!
john macon
This place is top notch .. great in house selections
Greg McKinley
Wonderful authentic handmade cigars the true real deal highest top quality products! A wide variety of perfectly aged cigars maintain under excellent conditions! Something for everyone with fair pricing a must stop for me each time I visit town!
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💯 …
Shannon Hubert
Went during Mardi Gras 2020 to get a quality Cigar between parades. I was surprised to see cigar engineers rolling cigars by hand there. The staff and especially and the manager, Keith, were very professional, friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back there to get more awesome cigars soon. Would recommend this Cigar Store to friends, family and anyone. Thank you for a terrific experience.
Ruben Trejo
Good cigars, best in town!
Ramy Stein
What a wonderful experience. Walked in and was astonished to see how there were multiple people just diligently rolling cigar after cigar for the shop to sell. The staff who were stocking shelves, etc were all more than friendly and accommodating to my friends and I. Helping us with whatever questions we may have had, and offering suggestions to those of us who were not 100% quite sure what we were looking for. A must go to spot for anyone who loves a good cigar.
Arthur van der Deijl
Great stop for a GOOD cigar. A must see.
N Su
Great spot for cigar aficionados or for someone who appreciates a handmade cigar! You can appreciate the cigars being made on site. You can buy a drink, bring it in, then enjoy smoking your cigar. They have tables with chairs and if you look around you'll find board games like backgammon!
Justin Jones
Great place and my absolute go to for cigars.
The pantela vanilla sweet is amazing and the other lines are great too.
If you want quality go here the staff is great, great prices and Shawna the owner is easy to talk to and extremely friendly.
The atmosphere is amazing the music the smell of fresh leaf and aged cigars just complete everything and everything compliments each other.
Im on my second box of 25 and will continue to be a customer even though I am not a fan of the city but will come here to have one and resupply my humidor.
Fred Watson
I can buy a cigar anywhere, so opted for hand rolled. Got a lot of help and direction in the humidor. Answered any and all questions. Steered me in the right direction, without "selling me." Roller was accommodating by posing for a picture. Cigars were fresh, moist and tasty. Definitely worth a stop. Very nice experience.
Cornelius Lewis
Great cigars and people!
Amol Soman
Super chill place. You can go here and smoke cigars while sipping on drinks from nearby bars (you have to go and get the drinks yourself). The tenders were helpful and knowledgeable. I told him I'm new to cigars and he took the time to explain everything to me and pick out a cigar that I liked.
I will definitely visit again!
Kyle Washington
Everything about this place screams good cigar. Rolling stations, cigar presses, humidor and great prices. Smoke'em if you got and this is the place to get'em.
Tom Caldwell
Wow. I smoke a lot of cigars and was not expecting this stick to be so enjoyable! Highly recommend the social club!
Crissi Beth
If you like cigars, you should definitely go see this place. They hand roll all their cigars, and you can watch the rollers do it. They use broadleaf tobacco from Nicaragua. Someone is happy to show you the stock in the humidor if you would like. They also ship and they are pretty reasonably priced.
A A
This place is amazing! They have some of the best cigars I have ever tasted and low prices. This is a great spot to go and hangout with some friends, the staff will help make sure you make the perfect choice.
Patrick Rist
Great place to visit with knowledgeable and helpful staff. Nice place to sit and smoke and watch people go by on the sidewalk.
Caleb Cook
Ryan is the man. Extremely knowledgeable and down to earth. He knows about every single cigar in the shop and is a gentleman and a scholar in helping you select the right one. Me and 6 other amigos of mine came in to the shop to celebrate and we were treated like royalty, even 30 minutes before close. This place is a must visit, and tip them well, you'll see that they deserve it!
Ed Terrell
Experience rollers on site and Kris is amazing. Her knowledge on cigars and suggestions are 5 star!
Paxton Williams
Great suggestion for a type. Fresh and delicious!
Westcoastkellan
Embrace that heavy tobacco smell as you enter the factory, and as you walk past fresh cigars being rolled, you are asked if you are ready for a great cigar, which is why you are there! Pick the one you want, and smoke it in the shop while surrounded by a museum of cigar boxes dating back over 100 years. Enjoy the ambiance and the smoke!
Brian Smith
I bought and smoked my very first cigar ever from this shop. It was very good (i wish i could remember what it was but its been 4 years). The shop itself was amazing as well. My wife and were walking Decatur heading back to our hotel and the aroma of this place caught my attention. I had zero cigar experience before this, but i had to go in. One gentleman greeted us and took us on a tour of the shop and picked out "one of his favs" for me to try as my first cigar. This turned into a lifelong hobby and I will definitely make this a must stop place every time im in NOLA.
Maria Morales
You will not be disappointed at this place. They offer a great selection of reasonably priced cigars and also have cigar rollers on site. The atmosphere is welcoming and staff knowledgeable. A real treat for any cigar enthusiast!
Hammer
Great people. Great service. Each cigar was explained and suggestions made to me to find what i like. The environment is even better. The cigars are rolled right there. Amazing place.
Walter Whitman
I'm not a cigar expert but thought the place was great. Nice selection for a new person and nice smoking area. The cigar makers look really cool and good. Staff was super helpful despite our lame inexperience.
Lane Greer
The cigars here are rolled on site right in front of you and then laid down to age. They are actually really really good cigars. The fact that they are hand rolled means you should by at least a half dozen because there will be some inconsistencies. Dont let that get you down, though. They really are fantastic cigars.
Don Muir
Staff took their time to explain to this non cigar smoker how they are made, the different types, a bit of history about the shop. They steered me in the right direction as to what 'gift box' would be appropriate for my needs and I even lit up a mild one to try. A very nice experience for any tourist. Thank you.
Terrence Adams
Unique concept, you walk in and see people rolling cigars. You can buy sample packs and gift packs. They only seel their made in house cigars. The first one was hard to light, but once it caught, it had a good burn.
iam someone
If you love cigars and cigar bars, you might just love this place as well! One gets to see the crafting of the company's namesake stogies in person! Many styles and iterations are available - rolled in-house! Great place!
JERRY BANKS
A must for any cigar lover that visits NOLA. Great staff, selection, prices, and atmosphere. We got caught inside during a downpour and the staff made everyone feel welcome to stay as long as they wanted. Will be a regular stop on return trips.
Kristine Kennedy
Took 3 visits to New Orleans before we finally made it to the Cigar Factory. Glad we did! Stopped in and bought an assortment to try, returned the next day for gifts for friends. Fair price, good product, friendly service - what more can you ask for? I'm not an aficionado by any stretch but the maduro I sampled was certainly the best I've ever tried.
Crystal Johnson
Celebrating a birthday here was a great choice!
scott harloff
Found their Pensacola location, what a great atmosphere, and tried the Social Club Corona Grande Maduro. The cigar smoked perfectly, nice straight edge, and the flavors are a rich earthiness with some cocoa and coffee hints. This is a great cigar....I usually prefer a Toro size and usually do not by a box, but this was a great cigar and on my 2nd trip.... bought a box! Great Job Cigar Factory!!
Brad Larson
Visited the factory many days this vacation. Going again shortly. Always very professional very good service. Great place to sit and have a cigar as well as purchase cigars. No pretense just cigars.
Bob Schoff
Friendly and knowledgable staff.
Karen Miller
My husband was there for a couple of hours last night. He really enjoyed himself, he was tired.from all of the walking we had done all day long. I sat with him for a while, and then left. As a woman, they did everything they could to make me comfortable on what is usually considered a man's domain . He came back to the hotel with a box of cigars, which is rare for him to like one particular cigar enough to want a box. He usually buys 5 or 6 of something, and puts them in his humidor. He.days he will be ordering more, s ok they have a new customer. Thanks for the good time, and treating us women with respect.
Jeff Craig
One of the few legitimate Cigar Factories anywhere in the US these days, there are a half dozen people expertly rolling cigars that you can watch as they work. Grabbed a few cigars (only a few since I don't have a humidor), and enjoyed them immensely. Very smooth, and I've paid more for cigars I liked less.
Dun “Dun Best” Beaty
Great spot!! Excellent customer service and selection of fine tobacco rolled in house!!
Thao Tran
Best cigar place in Nola
Excellent service and they are so very knowledgeable and patient with the recommendations James gave us. He was hospitable and just beyond kind :) will definitely back at their other locations in Florida!
Josh Lubrano
Nothing but their own handrolled cigars. They have several different blends that all have amazing taste and flavor. The staff is very helpful and they have cigar rollers who roll sticks in front of their customers-very cool!
Will Katz
Bought a couple of maduro sticks yesterday. Very helpful staff. Reasonable prices. Darn good cigars. Really enjoyed the experience. It was a pleasant surprise. I just happened to be walking by, but now that I know, I'll be back.
Adam Spey
They sell and age their delicious cigars in the big humidor in the middle of the place. They make them just in front of the humidor; and have tables where you can smoke them and watch them roll them up front. The Latin music completes the atmosphere. If the people watching isn't enough entertainment, grab some cards or a board game from the shelf and have at it. PRO TIP: stop next door on your way in for a drink to go. You wouldn't want to get parched while you enjoy your stogie.
Kevin Westbrook II
I was in New Orleans a week ago for an anniversary trip, and the Cigar Factory New Orleans was on my list of places I had to go to while in town. My wife and I stayed in a hotel in the french quarter and started walking down Decatur. We popped into Central Grocery to buy some olive salad for my father, and when we walked out I noticed Cigar Factory New Orleans, which surprised me because the Cigar Factory was further down Decatur. Apparently they opened a new location to spread their operation out to reach more people. When we walked in there was one cigar maker at work. We were immediately greeted by a lady who asked if we wanted to sit down and enjoy a cigar. My wife does not smoke, so I told her I was just interesting in buying a few cigars. She escorted me to their walk-in humidor and explained the different types of cigars they had to offer. I chose some of their double wrap cigars (because they resembled one of my favorites, CAO America), as well as one of their Connecticut shade cigars. I then explained to my wife, as we watched the cigar maker at work, how cigars were made. Once we got back home I got a chance to try the cigars. Now, I have been smoking cigars for about two years now. I am by no means an expert on cigars, but I have smoked many different types of cigars and usually keep a wide variety available in my humidor. I would gladly put the cigars I got from Cigar Factory New Orleans right at the same level as most top end cigars I have tried. Once my cigar collection dwindles down a little to where I get more room in my humidor I plan on buying a box of both the double wraps and the Connecticut's. Excellent cigars.
Rachael Millen
INCREDIBLE experience!
The group of people I was with and myself visited all 3 locations during our stay in New Orleans. The employees were extremely informative, intelligent, and helpful. They were also very welcoming to our crew. We couldn't get enough of the Cigar Factory!
Al Franco
A must visit store when in Nola! Great cigars that are hand rolled which you can smoke there ... whaaat? knowledgeable sales people too.
Mary Reeley
Great place! Fun watching cigars being rolled. Bought daiquiris 2 doors down , and sat for a bit. Great way to spend our first afternoon in NOLA.
Jonathan Hughey
Decent cigar, might need to age it for a couple months. Great tourist spot, watching the staff hand roll the cigars was really neat(work of art). I will return here when i come back to New Orleans.
James Williams
The best cigar experience on the planet. Nestled in historic french quarters I sat all day and enjoy fantastic hand rolled cigars. I even got to know a little about the people who rolled the cigars. They are all master cigar makers with 30 + years rolling. I was able to get a drink next door and settle in to watch people walk by and really relax. As I sat there I could not help but feel like I was no longer in New Orleans or even america, I was in Cuba. That sensation of being in another place is so addictive. This is a place of release more than just a cigar shop. Ask for the owner Al if you want to take a tour of the building and see how things are done, or if you just want a great conversation. Every-time is land in New Orleans this is my first and last stop.
Lewin Edwards
One of my favorite destinations in nola. Large selection of house rolled cigars, and friendly staff. Decent price breaks on 10+ purchases. Doesn't sell alcohol but you can buy drinks next door.
Steve P
The guy working the Bourbon Street location was great. The smokes are top notch.
Justin Feral-McWhirter
Last night I came in and got one of their full bodied cigars (Numero Tres). It was very good! My wife asked me, "why doesn't it stink, like the other ones you smoke?" High praise indeed! Of course the reason is that I usually smoke lower end cigars and this one was really good. The cigar even held up to a couple of times of me letting it go out and relight it. I smoked it all the way down to the nub and it was good the whole way. It's fun to see the cigars being created and even more fun to smoke one of these beauties.
William Nolan
They have a knowledgeable staff to help you with choosing the perfect cigar for you. And all of the cigars in that humidor are all handmade there in store
Gerald M
don't get carried away with the emotions and smells that arise from walking into the shop and watching the hand rollers. The cigars are all made there and have different names shapes and sizes as one would expect of this dedicated cigar factory. But the cigars are cheap: by that I mean that the tobaccos are not aged for any length of they taste more like cigarette tobacco, and to me have a very unappealing flavor. There are many brand name cigars that far and away exceed the quality of the handmade at the cigar factory. Within a few blocks of that area is La Habana Hemingway Smoke shop. Their house made Cigars Originate from Cuban seed growing in Nicaragua. They age there tobacco three to five years and although they don't roll them right on the premises they are all handmade. They range from 5 to $10, but are worth that price and equal to many at the 15 to $20 level. I will not try cigar factory again, They just have hype
Teddi Mathes
Great selection
Call for hours. Closed early due to lack of help
Keith Kelly
Great smoke shop. Great cigars and love to watch those guys roll them. Stop buy and try them out. I suggest the Lonsdale Cigar and a cold beer. Ordering from them is easy as well.
Omar Lastname
Fantastic hand made cigars.
Dustin Dolgner
Great group of people working here! They were quick to help, and have a great selection of cigars. Will be coming back to them for sure when ever I am in New Orleans.
Mike Mah
Great prices 40% discount when you buy a box of cigars. Service was great. Cigars are good. If your in New Orleans I highly recommend it
Armbarred
Love to stop in here and sit and smoke, watch the cigars be rolled, and look at the antiques and memorabilia from cigar history. Great local-produced cigars for a wide range of taste.
Steven De'wayne Brown
Our Regular Stop when we visit New Orleans
Shawn Pratt
If you like cigars, you must come here. They roll them onsite. The staff can be "over helpful" in the humidor; but what do u expect from a tourist town. The cigars are good. I prefer the Tres Hermanos. They are a maduro stonger cigar that ages nicely.
BobbyHilburn
They have plenty of cigars to pick from, from well aged in their walk in display humidor to fresh rolled on the spot.
Al Hermantin
Great place for a cigar. Watch them being rolled while you can pick out from a huge selection. Great friendly staff more than willing to help you out.
Joseph Callaway
Both Mike's were friendly and informative. I bought several cigars and none of them disappointed. I will be ordering from them.
Kev Gill
Friendly place, helpful staff, cigars being rolled mere yards from where you can sit and smoke them. They don't sell alcohol but they're happy for you to bring in a takeaway drink.
Blake Haber
Essential place to chill and enjoy life. I always get there ASAP when I'm in the quarter. Bring whiskey from somewhere, light up something from the Social Club line, enjoy the great music, and watch the world go by. Heaven.
Thomas Owens
Nice place. Ok cigars.
Chris LaBounty
I had a blast there. Very friendly and helpful staff. I enjoyed one of their puritos while I was there and had to get some to bring back home with me. Coming from Minnesota, it was a real treat.
Don Walton

Christophe Casse
(Translation) Nice place. I purchased a sample of 10 cigars. I'm not really a connoisseur and the manager chose me 10 cigars ranging from mild to medium strong and they put them in ascending order in the box. He used tobacco leaves to wedge the cigars in the box for transport. I appreciate them very much and my friends too. Maybe not "The Cigar" but they are good and it's a nice souvenir, the prices are right. You can smoke in the store and bring a bottle of rum or whatever, they don't sell alcohol on site. There are board games and newspaper magazines available.
(Original)
Bel endroit. J'ai acheté un échantillon de 10 cigares. Je ne suis pas vraiment connaisseur et le responsable m'a choisi 10 cigares allant du doux au moyen fort et els a mis dans l'ordre croissant dans la boite. Il a utilisé des feuilles de tabac pour caler les cigares dans la boite pour le transport. JE les apprécie beaucoup et mes amis aussi. Peut-être pas "The Cigar" mais ils sont bons et c'est un beau souvenir, les prix sont corrects. On peut fumer dans le magasin et y amener une bouteille de rhum ou autre, ils ne vendent pas d'alcool sur place. Il y a des jeux de société et des magazines-journaux à disposition.
Christian Halaszovich
Auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert, auch wenn man selbst kein Zigarrenraucher ist. Man kann hier bei der Herstellung zusehen und natürlich in Ruhe eine Zigarre genießen.
(Translation)
Definitely worth a visit, even if you're not a cigar smoker yourself. You can watch the production here and of course enjoy a cigar in peace.
Nisrine Maalouf
(Translation) Very nice atmosphere and great selection of good cigars.
