Popular Post Naug Posted March 19, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 19, 2018 I'll start this off with the cigar lounge on the 25th floor at the Lin Hotel in Taichung, Taiwan. It is about 2 blocks from my home, has no minimums for using it and the wait staff are really great, they know me by name and take very good care of my friends and me. Most lounges in Taiwan require you to purchase at least one from them, while you can often find some well aged stock you're looking at $1800 NT ($60 USD) for a Lusitania or $800 NT ($24 USD) for a Monte 4. So the fact that they do not require a purchase is pretty cool. Cocktails are pretty affordable and it doesn't suck that you're smoking at the finest hotel in Taichung. If you are in Taiwan head south to Taichung and let's burn a few 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Wilzc Posted March 19, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 19, 2018 Informative! I've always wanted to visit Taiwan! I'll add the one I frequent in KL, Malaysia The Mayan Lounge @ Tropicana Like all things under PCC, cigars aren't the cheapest, with a Monte 2 running up to USD25 per stick for reference, while an Esplendido kicks in at USD70. Oddly, they've probably got the largest stock of Cohiba Robustos Supremos EL, priced at USD80 per stick. Some rare stuff to be found here like the Cohiba Behike 54 which, at USD70 per stick.... is pretty low IMHO. Also lotsa jars and replica humidors. Several options of unbanded 'house blends' available also from around USD10-15. New World blends from Nicaragua, Honduras and Ecuador. As far as I know, no restrictions for smoking your own stash but, as usual, don't be a c@rnt and order tap water while smoking your own cigar. @torsion We'll be herfing here when you're down. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
