Cigars & Pars



 

Cigars & Pars and Stogies & Bogies both conjure up so many great thoughts. The open fairways seem to be one of the few places left that we can truly enjoy a great cigar. There’s no Junior Leaguer discussing Biff’s promotion with Priscilla to give you that look, you know the one, with her snoot in the air glaring at your every puff.

I don’t know about you but the place I enjoy hanging out at just as much as the local golf shop, is the cigar shop. For me it is Scottish Tobacco Company in the Buckhead district of Atlanta. It’s a small shop in a strip center but once you walk in its like Home Depot for the cigar nut.

The place is full of the best cigars from the top companies in the business and beyond that the guys that hang out there are a cast of characters. Off to the back, behind the the dark frosted glass is a room set up for lounging with your favorite cigar. A full size flat screen T.V. for the latest sports and business reports hangs adjacent to some of the most comfortable leather chairs and couch a man can want. Ample cigar lockers, with your personalized brass name plate, fill the wall to hold your personal stash.

We all have our favorite cigars and brag to our friends about the Cuban we had but the regular smoke is what I like. My go to cigar for years has been the Hoyo De Monterrey Excalibur Dark Knight No. 1 5.75 x 54 in a variety of sizes and wrappers. I’m a rubusto man for a short smoke and love the 5 .75” for the golf course.

Excalibur must have been following me over the years and recently hooked up with Golf Digest and Golf Smith in a special golf promotion. To steal the classic movie line “Shut up, you had me at Hello!”. This promo is a Buy 3 Get 1 Free of the Excalibur Series AND if that isn’t good enough they give you more…. you also receive a FREE hat clip & ball marker and a FREE $10 cash card from GOLFSMITH®. SOLD!!!!!

If you can’t tell by now this stuff gets me going! Golf, cigars and great day with friends, come on Sally, this is what its all about. In these tough economic times a trip to the golf course with a stop at your local tobacconist on the way is a full day of fun. It’s an inexpensive way to treat yourself to a peaceful day and you will always meet some great people.
