Going to Madrid next week for a birthday party. Any good estancias one can recommend? I am bringing cigars, but if there's an opportunity to buy a box, why not?

Any other non-cigar related suggestions while there?

I would recommend Estanco Barquillo, and Magellanes. For non-cigar I would say Villa Magna, Ritz and Hotel Santa Mauro are three nice hotels with cigar friendly terraces

Another vote for Magallanes. I’m in Madrid every couple months and it’s the best stocked in my experience. Beyond cigars, I associate Madrid with a calamari sandwich and a couple beers - way better than it sounds. I always end up in the place linked below -

Some restaurants to fill up before the cigar:

  • Desde 1911 
  • Los 33
  • Charrúa 
  • El enemigo 
  • Lana 
  • Mateo Honten
  • Casa SALESAS 
  • Varra 
  • Casa Canito 
  • Na Num

Some estancos: 

  • Cava Magallanes (C/ Magallanes) – well stocked, and has gotten popular with a few influencers pushing it and owners betting on it.
  • Cava Cardenal Cisneros – always has had a strong reputation in the city and is a classic.
  • Estanco Barquillo (C/ Barquillo 22) – Great location, near some of the restaurants above, great shopping area and drinks and hype all aronud
  • Cava Miguel Ángel (C/ Miguel Ángel) – another classic that has historically been one of the best ones 
  • Estanco Bejarano – far, neighborhoodie, have not been in a while. but people still talk about it

You can essentially smoke in any outdoor terrace in Madrid.., hotels mentioned above are great, also is the fourseasons courtyard (probably a must for a cigar these days in the city). I like the Plaza de Santa Ana / Barrio de las Letras area, grab a drink outside and enjoy.

I am not too concerned about where to smoke, but rather where to buy and eat/drink. Debating whether to bring a wine shipper. Holds a case of wine and is check in luggage.
