TiminBC Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 My winter trip will be Cambodia this year. Last year I did Thailand and Myanmar (Burma) and did not find or look to hard for cigars as I understood taxes were high. I brought my supply with me. I also flew through the US and thus it would have been a risk to bring Cuban cigars back. My question is has anyone bought real Cuban cigars in Cambodia. I am a week in Siem Reap , 6 days in Phnom Pehn and 4 days in Battambang. I see a few cigar bars and what looks to be a cigar store that says they are officially supplied but I guess they all would say that. Is there a way to work it from the other end and ask a distributor who is on the official list in Cambodia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallclub Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 The LCDH in Phnom Penh is run by Guillaume, who is a member here. I wouldn't buy anywhere else in the region, fakes are everywhere!

Chaki Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Another vote for Guillaume at LCDH Phnom Penh. He is a good friend (I know: he introduced me to Rob), is very knowledgeable about cigars and has the real stuff. Btw, he has a few RE cigars from other parts of the world. It's definitely worth a visit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodebusan Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I would say the same, Guibou is a passionate cigar smoker, and run, probably the best place in South-East Asia (except maybe Singapore but the prices there ). Price in Cambodia are cheaper than the neighbors countries, i think cheaper than Australia also. There is other place in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap where is LCDH display some cigars, avoid the 150$ Lanceros with no humidification system that you can find in some places, these one not come from his shop.
