Recommended Posts

1 Is the cigar bar still open on the Dawn?

2 Can I smoke cigars in the casino?

3 Has anyone ever purchased Domican cigars in Samana?

4 If so what brands and where?

 

1.Yes, as of 1/10.

2. No, I don't believe so.

3. No, didn't see any place but wasn't looking. I would worry about fakes and wait untill Tortolla.

I haven't purchased them but on Cayo Levantano they had vendors selling them on the way to the beach. Brandwise they said "COHIBA" but (real) Cohibas don't come in a box with a plexiglass cover (which I find bad because some Domincan brands are on par with Cubans).

1. Yes, it is open but usually is taken over with cigarette smokers. I preferred going up to Bimini Bar & Grill in the evening with a nice scotch.

 

2. No cigars in the casino.

 

3. Yes, on Cayo Levantado.

 

4. Last November I bought 2 boxes (25) of Davidoff churchills and 1 box (10) of Macanudo robustos for $135.00. They also threw in a couple of counterfeit Cohibas that weren't too bad.

Dominican Cohibas are packaged that way as were my Macanudo's. The Davidoff's were packaged in a wood framed plexiglas topped box also.

Romeo and Julieta is a very good cigar about $5.00 per stick in the US (fairly mild nice flavor).

Or based on the bank size Ashton VSG's at $10.00-$12.00 (a little more power)

Just my opinion

 

Thank you! Maybe one of each?:)

If you wanted to buy some cigars for the corporate attorney, who has given up his pipe, which brand would you recommend that wouldn't "break the bank"?

 

Romeo Y Julieta 1875 $8-$9 a stick for Churchill

Carlos Torano Casa Torano $7.00 a stick for Churchill

Cusano 18 double connecticut $7.00 a stick for Churchill

Joya de Nicaraugua Celebracion $8.00 a stick for Churchill
