Tiny Tim Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 On our recent trip to Cancun, Mexico we visited the LCDH. As a matter of fact, we arrived at the Moon Palace around noon and by 2pm we were in the LCDH! David, the owner, made us feel very comfortable. His new (brand new) store was very beautiful. Here's a pic of us and the host: The "boss" relaxing with a fine Habano: Entrance to the humidor inside the establishment: Part of the selection on hand: The brand new LCDH is located right on the water. Here's a pic of the pool below the outside deck: The bay in the distance: David, owner of the Cancun and Tiajuana LCDH's: If you're in Cancun I strongly suggest you visit David and his shop. He has a full bar and lots of leather chairs to lounge in. The humidor was well stocked, as you can tell from the pic. He is a first class host. He even insisted that HE take us back to the Moon Palace when we were ready to leave; and he did! Great guy! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudius Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Wow, nice place, perfect location, nice furniture (couch looks very cool). I'll have to remember to bring David a nice shirt if I ever make it over there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sluggo819 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I'm going to Cancun in a few month's. Where exactly is this place. When I was there last year I couldn't find it. Is it new? Also, how are the prices? I'm debating wether I should bring my own or just buy whem I'm down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Thanks for the pics - they're especially nice as the cold weather switch has been flipped on up here. On second thought, they're making me a little sad..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The landmark you'll look for is the Police Station. The LCDH is directly across the street from it. Prices? Quite a bit higher than what you'll pay here. Everything is in peso's so you'll have to divide by 10.8 (or whatever it is at the time) to get into US dollars. Average cost of a Monte 2 is around $15+/- per stick. Still, you should drop by and purchase a few sticks, and hang out in his nice shop! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa1257 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Any time you have an opportunity to visit an LCDH, it is an opportunity not to miss. While the prices may be quite a bit higher than what you may find here, buying a few cigars to enjoy while you are there supports the existence of the LCDH and also makes for memory's. Besides, after finishing a great cigar, think about making a Cannon Ball jump into the pool down below! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny Tim Posted October 24, 2006 Author Share Posted October 24, 2006 Exactly Tampa. Next year I'll be at the Cozumel LCDH! Woo Hoo!!!!!! :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorscheC4S Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 » » Part of the selection on hand: » » What a temptation, an actual shop humidor filled with cuban cigars, rather than the 95% dogrockets here in the states. The one thing I miss about getting smokes over the internet is the visit to the local tobacconist's walk in humidor. A small price to pay for Fidel's finest:-) Thanks for the post, especially the pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puros71 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I know David from when I was living in San Diego. I used to hit up the TJ LCDH every week. As for the new shop in Cancun, I was there last month. It is a nice place with a great view of the water. I chatted with David, smoked some cigars, and had a drink. Nice selection and a big difference in size compared to the TJ shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Maduro Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Wait a minute. Is it? Could it be? The very same "Tiny Tim" I used to see around the CA boards? Well I'll be darn. Salud, my friend. -Mike a.k.a. "Tony maduro" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12stones Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Looks like a great time. I never hit the LCDH in TJ while I was in SD. Of course, I never knew about it. Right place, wrong time I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caesar Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Great looking store. Thanks for the photos. No question this is a place that must be visited while in Cancun. Next winter I plan on visiting the LCDH in St. Maarten. Has anyone been? How does it compare to the others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidson Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 » Wow, nice place, perfect location, nice furniture (couch looks very cool). » » I'll have to remember to bring David a nice shirt if I ever make it over » there... I disagree with you guys, the place looks great, Edited this is not the place to discredit a business owner, your experience may have not been to your liking, but here at FOH, we will not premit such accusations without proof, and then maybe not then, depending upon El Prez's decision I arrived to LCDH ready to buy an havano but I didn´t had enough money, so I tried to buy a cheaper one and enjoy it there, but David's face was not the best, finally I finished to smoke it and david didnt say a word while I was there, then I leave with a bad impression.
