Hello from the UK and a Question

[jcwads]

Hello all,

I’m based in the UK. I’ve been into pipes for about 6 years now. Quite a collection of pipes and tobacco now.

I did have a question. I’m coming to Vegas in a couple of weeks. Never been to the USA so am very excited!! Can anyone recommend any Vegas pipe shops where I may be able to pick up some decent USA blends?


Many thanks

I don't know that there are really any worth a darn left there...

Mr. Bills is a chain, but "tobacco leaf" looks promising.
I'd try either of those from first glance.. but maybe someone with experience can chime in!

the hard part is making sure it's a "real tobacco" shop, and not a weed pipe shop.

LV is almost a wasteland when it comes to pipe tobacco.

Any other places you'll be stopping through?

Welcome from Knik River, Alaska! No clue on Vegas......but I'm sure someone can help you, I know there is a member or two residing there if I'm not mistaken.

Perhaps your hotel will accept a package and hold until you arrive?? If so, you could shop online and have it delivered when you’re there.

There are some nice cigar places but I do not know of any good pipe tobacco shops. I usually bring my own since I am so close.

Now that is some good advice! 4noggins here I come!

Yes I definitely want to experience a Vegas cigar lounge. Any tips?

Vegas is Cigar/pipe friendly town but most of the Cigar lounges are no-more. MGM, Luxor Bellagio and Paris all have bars that are smoking, but not really Cigar Bars. There are Davidoff shops all over the place.

I think ordering some American tobaccos for your stay is an outstanding idea.

The kind of smoking featured in Vegas these days is of Jamaican origin.

If I may, go off strip for food for a night. Chinatown is amazing, close by and excellent. My favorite restaurant is Raku.

You'll have a ball. Nothing like Vegas.

Cigars are no issue here. Plenty of options. Pipe tobacco? Not so much. About the only place that stocks anything is The Tobacco Leaf. They have, I think, 4 locations in town.

Yeah, I’d call the hotel in advance to say you’re having a package delivered during your stay. Have 4Noggins or Smoking Pipes ship C/O your name to the hotel. Try your best to have your order shipped to coincide with your stay. Shouldn’t be too hard. I’ve done it many times before during my travels.

Thanks. Davidoff is right next to the Wynn where I am staying so will definitely go there for a cigar

Cigars:

Every Davidoff "store" I have seen is more like a small newspaper stand in size.

On the strip, Caesars Palace has both a Montecristo and a Fuente cigar lounge/bar. The Montecristo Cigar Bar seems to be a little more price friendly but Casa Fuente has an excellent selection of high end stuff. (It's only a few minutes walk between the two and you never leave the building.)

Off strip, The Cigarbox and The Cigar Warehouse have nice selections and lounge areas. The Tobacco Leaf has a small lounge area and also carries some pipe tobaccos.

On Las Vegas Blvd South, and my personal favorite, is Double Helix. A small selection of good cigars but a good selection of whisky/whiskey flights and even better selection of individual glasses. Also their cheese and charcuterie boards are excellent and overall they are noticeably less expensive than the on strip places.

There's more places but I've found most of them to be lacking in either selection or quality and many of the "whisky" lounges on the strip don't have that good of a selection and are extremely over price, IMHO.

Hello, and welcome.

Hello and welcome! Does Fuente still have a store at Ceasar's?
