About Us

Cigar Stores Near Me was founded in 1997 by a group of passionate aficionados who believed European cigar lovers deserved direct access to the world's finest handmade cigars — without the markups, delays, or questionable storage practices that plagued the market at the time. From a small warehouse in Central Europe, we built relationships with factories in Cuba, Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Honduras, establishing the import and quality-control standards that define us today.

We carry over 5,000 premium SKUs spanning every strength profile, wrapper origin, and price point. Our buyers visit tobacco-growing regions annually to taste new releases, meet master blenders, and curate additions to our catalog. We do not list every cigar that exists — only those we believe represent genuine excellence and value at their price point.

Every cigar in our inventory is stored in climate-controlled conditions at 70% relative humidity and 18°C. We use only Boveda humidification in every shipment. If a cigar does not arrive in smokeable condition, we replace it — no questions, no forms, no delays. This guarantee has been our promise since day one.

Over 250,000 orders have been delivered to aficionados in 20+ European countries. We host annual tasting events in Prague, Vienna, and Kraków, and our newsletter reaches 45,000 subscribers who rely on us for tasting notes, new arrivals, and exclusive member pricing. Cigars are not just our business — they are our passion.
