Transport To The Age Of The Decadent Havana High Life At Merchants Cigar Bar

Merchants Cigar Bar offers guests an environment fueled by intrigue with hints of glamour in every detail.

Established in 1996, Merchants Cigar Bar is a sleek midcentury styled lounge that transports guests to another place and time. True to the age of the decadent Havana High Life – legal indoor smoking, fresh sourced cocktail ingredients, and music playing till the early morning hours. Merchants offers a well-curated cigar selection, as well as a cocktail and food menu highlighting classics elevated with a modern approach.

This cigar selection from Merchants was curated to exemplify some of the finest cigars the world has to offer. With tobaccos from almost every corner of the globe, you are bound to find a cigar that suits your profile and excites your palate. All cigars on Merchants list come with rich history and high accolades, such as the Grand Cru Toro, WSC Churchill, and cigars from the Montecristo Classic Series.

An eclectic variety of mouthwatering cocktails at Merchants offers balanced flavors to complement the unique flavors of each cigar. Some of my personal favorites were Lady of the Night (19 Patron silver tequila, aquavit, Crème de Cacao, passionfruit, lemon, Champagne mango, sparkling wine) and Aloha Fiji (Forrds gin, Midori, rice, lime, blue Curacao, umami, egg white).

To entice your palate further, the kitchen serves delicious sharable dishes. The Deviled Eggs are topped with caviar, candied bacon, saffron, and chives for an explosion of flavors in your mouth. The Cheese and Charcuterie Board features chef's selection of cheeses accompanied by fig jam, strawberries, dates, and toasted sourdough. The Lobster Sliders with juicy Maine lobster tossed in lemon mayo on butter-toasted mini brioche are perfect bites that pair well with the cigar and cocktails.
