There’s no mistaking this spot for anything but a purveyor of fine tobacco when you see the huge neon signs out front. The lights almost pull you into the retro-themed lounge where one can choose from over 90 different brands in 400 various shapes and sizes. The décor takes you back in time to the ‘50s, and the humidor can only be described as stellar. The word “sanctuary” seems fitting as you get the sense of being tucked away in your own private smoking escape. All the while, cigar lovers travel from everywhere to fill this Studio City retailer. Since 1994, this place has matured into a cigar destination that screams passion and love for our favorite leaf.
