Cigar shops in Orlando

[Homer]

My friend is going to Orlando (Florida) for 2 weeks this sunday. Are there any good cigar shops to visit? Maybe he could find some Tatuaje Monsters.

Check out Corona Cigar company. One of the best lounges and B&M's, I have ever been to.

i have lived in FL >20 years, many of them in orlando.  if not raining, this is a great time of year to visit.

as above, corona cigar is a fine choice and a premium vendor in the area.  there are 3 corona locations in greater orlando - i would visit the downtown location first.  they have a huge selection along with a fine lounge/bar.  seating both indoor and outdoor.  i would reference the nba schedule as well - the season starts this week and downtown/parking gets busy during home games.  in fact, a friend is getting married on Nov 6 and i'll be in orlando that weekend.  feel free to contact me.

the sand lake/dr. phillips location is the other (of the 3) that i would visit.  if your friend is staying near the theme park/resort areas, this would be the closest location.  not as spacious as downtown, but a fine selection of cigars and lounge.  again, seating both in/outdoor and parking a non-issue.

overall, most of the larger shops in FL still carry the recent monster releases.

and - if he is there 2 weeks, might i suggest a day trip to the tampa area?  tampa sweethearts is the home of arturo fuente, etc. and has excellent stock.  i would call in advance if there is a specific box, and the hours are limited.

I know just Corona Cigar downtown. Very good shop indeed.

If I am not wrong close to Orlando Magic arena.

I've been to the Corona Cigar in the outdoor mall off of Sand Lake and it was awesome. That's a cool little spot that it's in with a lot of shops and other things to do. I would recommend that for sure.

I was last year in the downtown Corona Cigar Lounge with my wife and grandkids and we have had a blast

All three Corona locations are great. There are also a few in Winter Park worth visiting if you are north of the Orlando proper.

The Corona Lounge downtown is great. Good bar. Nice looking, sexy waitresses. If I'm not mistaken that is a Diamond Crown Lounge also.

Personally, not too fond of Coronas.  Visit Ol Times in Casselberry on 436.  Better prices and great selection.  Also, a Cuban domino table that attracts a group of regulars.  If you like a good English pub, head over to Bull & Bush.  My favorite in Orlando.  Try the Old Thumper ale.  Hand primed on tap.  Great cigar froendly pub.

Thank you all for great advices.

Ol Times Cigars in Casselberry, basically Orlando. They have a good Tatuaje selection along with other Pete Johnson lines.

Corona Cigars is unbelievable. By far the biggest B&M shop with more cigars than I have ever seen anywhere.

Been to the downtown Orlando location. Very nice.  The Sand Lake location is the headquarters for the company.
