The Lost art of the Cigar Lounge...

Today I'm blogging about how there is such a lack of cigar lounges in the state of New Jersey.  To be specific Southern New Jersey!!  Here are the cigar lounges that I have found in my travels throughout New Jersey:

JR Cigar - Route 10 Whippany, NJ
The lounge is ok - there are 4 - 5 tables and some nice leather type chairs around them as well as some standard chairs you'd find ait a poker table...  The only real issue is that the temperature is a little hot for me.  The best cigar lounge experience for me is where its nice and cool!!.  Oh yeah - alot of people rave about JR cigar stores.  They have a few great brands added as of late - Pepin (the best), Camacho, Fuente, La Gloria but they shove those JR cigars down your throat and alot of "crap" Altadis" and General Cigar brands...  Mayorga?  Ramon Allones - what the F.....  those suck and really are only smoke by people who are casual smokers who dont know shi$%^t about what a good cigar is.....

Cigar Stop
1607 Broad St
Shrewsbury, NJ

Very nice little lounge in the back of the Store, decent guys at the shop, very accomadating staff..  The cigar selection is weak but none the less they do what seems to be a good business.

Rubens Smoke Stack
Hackensack, NJ

I  found this place when I desperate for a place to work and smoke early one evening after work.  Wild selection of sticks, from Tatuaje's to Crappy Romeos.
