Whoa!

Bad news.

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

Oh crap! Better stock up if you like 'em. I hope there's a clearance sale.

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

first box I ever bought was a box of Nat Sherman Timeless No.2, I got them just a couple days before my first herf, my first S.H.I.T. herf, first time I met Peter and I gifted him one of those ... because that's what you do ... he was very gracious accepting it. :) Strangely enough that was not only the first box of NC I ever purchased, it was the last. Between Angel and Peter I got a heapin' helpin' of push down the slope that night, which is why " : Adam" is the gif you see below ... haha.

Smoked a ton of those back when I worked in Midtown. Well, a short ton, as it was Nat's tins of little cigars for me. Would stroll down Fifth Avenue every few weeks and buy a brick of those. Haven't had one in, jeez, 40 years or so? So I guess you can blame me for the closure. :D

Shame, but not surprising after the sale Altria. I was member at the townhouse lounge for years, sad to see it go.

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

Do they even make anything decent anymore?? If they go on clearance, whats the one box I should look for?

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

Joe! :D

I actually don't think I have ever smoked a Nat Sherman cigar. And now I never will. :r

Nat Sherman is just one an ever increasing list of names that formed NYC's retail and cultural history closing.

It will soon be just chains stores and nothing iconic & unique left to the City.

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

Well, Forbidden Planet is still open. :D

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

That already happened when Thomas left and came back home to NC. :D

Hey Tom! You didn't miss out on anything. Great lounge though.

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

I have been missing out on some Joe though! How's it going Brother?

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

At least I can say I went to the shop one time on a visit to the city. Beautiful shop from what I remember!

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

Which one, Jack? Near as I recall, there were at least three at various times and locations in Midtown.

Re: Nat Sherman cigars are no more....
 

That I don't know unfortunately....I just remember dark wood everywhere, leather chairs. Sales people in 3 piece suits......seemed like I was transported back in time to when a cigar shop was more than some place that just wanted to sell you things but rather an experience. It was 12 years ago.....
