nc6789 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 So fellas, I’m thinking of heading to NYC next week to check out one of the Davidoff stores for my birthday and have a cigar. I work in Newark and it’s only a quick train ride over. My question for you all is - have any of you been to any of their NYC locations and if so, did you smoke a cigar directly from their humidor? Did you find the cigar to be too wet or was it enjoyable? I’m wondering if I should bring a stick (not even sure if I can) and purchase a couple to take home. Any insight would be helpful. I’m just “assuming” that the Davidoff humidor would be better regulated/maintained but I could be mistaken lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torsion Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I've smoked at all three (only handful of times) and my favorite if I had to choose is probably the one downtown (Brookfield place) - the room to smoke is a little more discreet than the other two in Midtown. The (my) rule at any B&M is to buy at least one and at least then feel better when smoking your own should you choose to (take the band off to avoid staff questions I guess) Of the ones I've bought and smoked at the locations they've all burned and tasted well. Enjoy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBNInc Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 You can’t go wrong with any of them, but I agree that the newest one, in Brookfield is probably the best one. The 6th Ave location has a big window, which is great for people watching, but not great if you want privacy. I’ve had good and bad smokes, but if you bring a bad smoke to the attention of the staff, they’ll replace it for you no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitzy Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I work two blocks up from the one on Madison. The smoking room is pretty small but as long as your not there on a Friday you should be able to get a seat. I've had no problems smoking any cigars out of their humidor. The one on 6th I don't frequent as often and I've never been to the one downtown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquid360 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I’m not a big fan of Davidoff cigars, BUT I love their pipe tobacco, pipes, and the beautiful accessories! I have a bunch of odds/ends including a beautiful humidor. Their sense of aesthetics is wonderful. I’d love to visit a store one day for a smoke, a definite bucket list item.

canadianbeaver Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I find the smoking rooms at Davidoff NYC nice but not “lounge-like” if that makes any sense? They are simply the the part of the store they allow you to smoke sold cigars. Now. Bring your cigars you like best and make a reservation to go to The Carnegie Club to hear music and smoke your brains out. That is my favourite cigar time in NYC. Cheers!

Doctorossi Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I've found friendly and helpful staff at the Madison store in particular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
