This weekend the B&L crew headed out to Philly for a change of atmosphere. Here we visited Holts Cigar Company and Mahogany Cigar Lounge for lunch & libations.
Holt’s Cigar Co. is big online. Great prices & deals so I hear. I am not a fan of ordering my cigars online. It is a plus that Holt’s has an actual retail location for guys like me. I enjoy the benefits of belonging to a cigar lounge which I believe far out weighs what I can save online. But that’s another story.
Holt’s is not filled with “premium alternatives” like JR cigars. Its premium from wall to wall with a helpful and professional staff. Lots of deals and specials. I did leave with a good amount of Drew Estate Liga Privada T-52′s.
Holt’s is all retail space not a lounge . Buy whatever cigar, pipe & accessories you need….and leave. Then head right next door to Mahogany on Walnut. Very nice comfortable dimly lit cigar lounge & bar. Fresh lunch, top shelf bar, antique interior, a couple flat screens & well ventilated. The beer selection is just ok but the whiskey menu is extensive. Excellent bartender I am positive she memorized the entire drink menu.
Philly is a beautiful city to make a day out of something. Eat good, smoke good, drink good, shop good. Luxe
