Professor Twain Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Great to have you. Don't be afraid to post a review, I posted my first just over a year ago.
El Presidente Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 Welcome! I have a soft spot for Hong Kong and I hope that we can catch up next time I am there. Are there any Divans in Hong Kong that you frequent?

Thanks for the encouragement, Professor... Crazy about those single malts too (Lagavulin, Ardbeg, Glenfarclas, Springbank, Rosebank). Yamazaki 18y/o & Edmundo Dantes 15y/o are great companion to cigars... :-P :-P :-P

It depends on what you fancy and where you're staying (HK/Kowln)...see above difference in style. My favorite is Cigar Divan at MO because i'm old boy and Simon is so customer-centric but it is not a big place.

I'll be HK side and I'll be in need of some R&R - got a big sales pitch for the afternoon so will either need to drown sorrows or drink to success! ;-) So the Cigar Divan sounds good to me :-)

Due to smoking ban laws, most divans are operating under the window of 'Tasting Room' but some like Cohiba Atmosphere, Cigarro & Kingfolk are operating as 'Private Membership Club'. When will you be in HK?

I made it to the Cigar Divan last night - very very small place but a good selection and very friendly staff :-) Picked up a Siglo 2 and went up to the 25th floor to the Manwah bar (I think that was what it was called) and enjoyed it with a Mojito looking out across the harbour... Just what the doctor ordered. Thanks for the recommendation Fatcigar :-D

El Presidente Posted January 15, 2008 Posted January 15, 2008 The M- bar is excellent. I was surprised to be able to enjoy a Partagas 898V there which I picked up from the MO Cohiba Divan. Kudos to Simon for running a great opertation.
