How do you decide what to take when you go on holiday? Plan your smokes?

Off to London for a long weekend in a couple of days. Might just take a couple for the evenings. The weather doesn't look too warm...

The term is f***ing freezing.

We are staying in Camden. I'll have a look at going there.
I'm just gonna take one cigar a day. Probably a Monte double edmundo and a Gem epicure n1.

I'm sure there's a Cuban bar in Camden Lock where you can smoke outside whilst enjoying a drop of rum

Near the lock there's a few COSA there....if the weather Is.good and enjoy one on top of primrose hill.

Always nice having one on that hill.

Smoked a couple last night st the rooftop gardens with a drink and some live music.

Anyone know if Turmeus's prices are the same as cgars online ones? Gonna pop into there and/or jjfox to get a couple of singles for tonight. Brought a couple more with me but gonna save em for tomorrow.

I think Turmeaus shop prices are higher than online IIRC. You could try the line 'Mish said I could get these at the online price.' [emoji51]

So both jjfox and turmeus have priced an uppman magnum 46 tubo at 15.99 and 16.80 online respectively but want 23.99 for it in store. I'm happy to pay a premium but that's simply too much. I walked out of both without spending any money today.

Cgars do a click and collect...you could try and do that and collect it from the Robert Graham in West Hampstead. Beats paying the full wack store prices

Yeah it's 48-72 hours before you can collect. It's not an issue for me, I've got a couple more cigars for tonight and we head backbone tomorrow. Just a shame that I didn't feel justified to got in the shop and pick a few out.

I holiday in Ibiza early October and tend only to take a couple with me as there are several Tabac shops with a very good range of affordable smokes and the usual suspects of wallet draining luxuries. There is a decent one in the resort I stay in and it's strolling distance from the pool so I shop there most days for my daily puffs.

Aye, i normally buy when abroad and have only been caught short once. There are zero tobacconists/cigar shops near me and i order online - so never get to inspect the selection. i love the large humidor rooms when abroad but hate the way they stand over you with the tray while your nosing. suppose that how its done, security or professionalism? but i always buy the bare minimum because im being watched. i do make part of my holiday finding cigars

The Tabac shop I visit daily is so laid back. I still ask if its OK to go through to the walk in humidor and get a smile and nod. I get the odd freebie thrown in as I'm in almost every day. They also do good deals s it's the end of the season. But there are a few I've visited where you can feel their eyes on your every move.

Yeah, seen that quite a few times. It's disappointing though understandable, I guess. Having said that, once you've been in once or twice and purchased they tend to be a lot better. One shop switches the light on in the humidor, opens the door and just waits for me to come out now
