Met my friend Bernie at this new cigar store that opened on SuperBowl Sunday, what a most impressive store, we bought some sticks that i only bought online before. Never heard of 'Lost City' by Fuente before. Bought a 'My Father' by Pepin for $11 and Bernie bought an Opus X for $17, we were given a nice fifteen minute tour by the clerk, first floor and downstairs where the bar and theater are situated. Membership is $250 a month, which can be paid by buying a box of cigars every month, plus use of the downstairs club area. First floor is good enough for me. Nevertheless, it a real nice place.

Next time I am in town maybe I can meet you there! :)
 
It would be my pleasure to meet you there, just a note, i'll be leaving for the DR from the 16th of February till the 20th. I really enjoy the ProCigar Festival. I imagine it rivals the Havana Festival in every detail except one. We all know what that is.

Claudio it is awesome you went there, an amazing store that frankly i have never seen anything like. A must see for anyone in the Chicago area.

Absolutely! They have some HTF Fuente products ans their vintage walk-in humidor was a pleasant surprise. Lost City from Fuente, Diamond Crown, and the My Father Le Bijou 1922 from Pepin were some of the cigars that stick in my mind. Never since i've been smoking cigars have i ever seen Opus X on the shelves in the Suburban stores in Illinois, usually they're reserved for the special customers. I have to say i was like a kid in a candy store.
