Default Re: Casa Fuente in Las Vegas. Color me unimpressed.

While I agree that it can be pricey for cigars at Casa Fuente, you have to try to put it in perspective.

How often do you get to go to Vegas and hang out in an iconic place like Casa Fuente?

Really though...if you're in Las Vegas and if 35 bucks is gonna break you, maybe Vegas wasnt a good destination choice to begin with. It's not like you're gonna buy 3 to smoke there & 6 more to take home with you.

Like others have said, its a small price to pay for the experience.

Going to Vegas is a "treat"; CF is just a part of that treat.

I guess it's all a matter of opinion. I go to Vegas all the time, and the experience wasn't that great.

I can think of half a dozen nicer cigar places I'd rather hang out.

Prime, Boca Raton FL
Smoke Inn, Margate FL
Burn, Naples FL
Smoke on The Water, Weston FL
Casa de Montecristo, Chicago IL
Cigar King, Skokie IL

Now there's something we can agree on. I grew up on Lawrence & Pulaski. My dad said it was 8 yesterday, I said, "8 what"
