What You Might’ve Missed About Your Favorite Cigar Place
We’re sure you’ve all noticed that we do things a bit differently here than most cigar shops. This is truly a labor of love for us. Our focus is on how we can best help you enhance your cigar life. Whether it’s exposing you to new smokes or informing you about some existing gems you may have missed. A huge part of our joy in this business is helping other smokers discover treasures along the way.
One way we do this is by coming up with creative ways for you to try new cigars and save a few bucks in the process. In fact, in the midst of a herf the other day it occurred to us that we have a lot of stuff on our site that our Smoke Inn tribe may have overlooked or even forgotten. We figured a ‘Did you know?’ segment would be the best way to bring ‘em to your attention. So, this is a run down of some of the features, items and deals that help make Smoke Inn your favorite cigar place.
Smoke Inn’s Spotlight Features
Open the Smoke Inn site and you’ll see 6 red buttons. On the left side of your computer screen or right down the middle on your phone. These are some of the things we’d like to tell you about. The first one is Spotlight Features. When you’re thinking about doing a little cigar exploring, this should be one of your first stops. What you’ll find here are cigars we think deserve extra attention. They may be new products or items we’ve had for a bit. What they all have in common is you get 15% off a checkout with the code SPOT15.
These will always be sticks which deserve love. No fluff. No filler. Spotlight Features isn’t a clearance rack, it’s a showcase of cigars you really ought to try. Just one example from this month is the ADVentura – The Conqueror Emperor’s Edition. This mild-medium Ecuadorian H2000 wrapped treat features notes of light citrus backed by cocoa, cream and natural leather and finished with spice and dry fruit elements. It’s a limited production item that earned some notable accolades, including a 95 rating from Stogie Press.

Cigar of the Month Club
What more can we say about the best cigar of the month club in the business? No brag, just fact and a point of pride for us. We wrote a piece about our illustrious COTM a couple of weeks ago in fact that you can read here. The bottom line is we run our cigar of the month club the way we run the rest of our cigar shop. It’s a tight ship, without compromise and always aiming to be the best of the best. If you smoke at least 5 sticks a month and you don’t belong to the Smoke Inn Cigar of the Month Club, then chances are you’re missing out on some truly awesome cigars and spending more than you need to on top of it. Check it out and read the reviews by your fellow Smoke Inn tribesmen. Seriously, you’ll thank us later.

Hot Weekly Deal
This one is a no brainer too. Look, we get it. Being a discerning aficionado comes at a price. But we also know that fine cigars are one of life’s great joys. We work hard so we can enjoy the finer things, do we not? But that doesn’t mean you need to pay full retail for every stick you buy. Not when you’re a member of the Smoke Inn family. The world-famous Hot Weekly Deal is just what it sounds like. A chance every week to grab a killer 8 cigar sampler hand curated by Honest Abe Dababneh himself for just 45 bones. Again, no fluff, no filler. We don’t play around. If you smoke on the regular and you’ve got refined and evolving tastes — you’re going to want to watch the Hot Weekly Deal.
This week’s Hot Weekly Deal for example:
- AJ Fernandez San Lotano The Bull Toro (6 x 54)
- Avo Caribe Robusto (5 x 50)
- Perdomo Reserve 10 Anniversary Maduro Epicure (6 x 54)
- Caldwell Pepper Cream Soda Robusto (5 x 50)
- Montecristo Nicaragua 1935 Toro (6 x 54)
- Fiat Lux Genius (5.5 x 52)
- Perla Del Mar Corojo Toro (6.25 x 54)
- VC 500th Anniversary Selectos (5.625 x 46)
Free Goods!
This one is kind of self-explanatory. Free stuff for you with certain purchases. We’re not talking about bumper stickers and pencil erasers here either, it’s stuff you will want. For example, right now you’ll get a nice Nica Rustica Swag Pack with any purchase of a box of Drew Estate Nica Rustica cigars. It comes with a leather kit, cigar rest, cigar lighter, Nica Rustica candle and stainless-steel water bottle. Check the Free Goods! Page out once a week or so because we change it up periodically. Chances are you’ll see some cool swag you can get with a box of cigars you already want to buy.

Smoke Inn Gift Cards
We think two of the best gifts you can give the cigar smoker in your life are a Smoke Inn Cigar of the Month Club membership (3 or 6 months) or a Smoke Inn gift card. You can buy the electronic gift card right off our site, it takes only 2 minutes to fill out our super short form. Your colleague, friend or loved one gets an email and they are good to go. They can use the gift card to buy whatever their heart desires from the Smoke Inn online store. It’s an easy and thoughtful way to let somebody know how you feel about ‘em. By the way, we’ve restarted international sales again and we’re adding new countries every week, so there’s a fair chance you can even gift this to a friend abroad if you like. Check with us directly to see which countries we’re shipping to.

Smoke Inn Samplers
If you’re a regular here you’re probably already be aware of the amazing cigar samplers we put together. If not, those in the know will tell you this is one more thing Smoke Inn does very, very well. We love building themed samplers for you guys that showcase some of our favorite and tastiest sticks. Not only do the samplers give you a chance to take a tour of some truly superb cigars, they also save you money over buying the same smokes another way.
Here are some samplers you should definitely check out:

Build Your Own Sampler
Samplers are a great way to explore and try new cigars and fall in love over and over again. One of the best things about them is you can just buy single cigars at a discount instead of paying more for the standalones. We figure there’s no point in limiting you to only the samplers we put together (as amazing as they are). That’s where Build Your Own Sampler comes in. It’s exactly what it says it is. You get to put together your own 5, 10, 15 or 20-pack of premium smokes and get as much variety as you want at a healthy discount. Your shopping cart will even tell you how much you saved when you’re done building your custom pack. It doesn’t get any better than that. So, what’re you waiting for?
Smoke Inn is Your Cigar Place
Your local cigar place is more than just a spot to grab some cigars and go. If they’re doing it right, and we believe we are, then there is a sense of atmosphere there. Your cigar place should have a vibe that makes you happy to be there and want to spend some time. We hope our Did You Know feature opened your eyes to some new possibilities. Stay tuned because the next few blogs here are going to be exceptional. A piece on the Smoke Inn Advent Calendar is in the works along with a story on The Great Smoke that you are not going to want to miss.
