New Rocky Patel lounge comes to Florida

Cigar fans living on the west coast of Florida have some good news, especially if they enjoy Rocky Patel selections. On November 6, Patel will open his new cigar lounge, Burn, in Naples, Florida.

Burn is a concept that is finally coming to fruition after approximately two years of planning by Patel and others. When designing the concept, Patel said he wanted to create a cigar lounge that strayed from being one dimensional. He wanted the lounge to not only immerse patrons in the cigar smoking experience, but also to pique their interests in other cigar complements, such as champagne, wine, spirits, and other high-end luxuries.

To convert his wishes into reality, Patel has hired a staff that is not only versed in cigars, but also wines and spirits. The lounge's capacity is set at 300, and it will feature a full bar packed with various premium drink offerings. If a patron prefers to sit away from the bar, there will also be mixologists on hand to prepare his or her drink right at their seat. The lounge is primarily intended for smoking and drinking, so food will not be served on a regular basis. Patel did say there would be occasional dinners catered by restaurants in the Naples area, however.

As for the cigar element of Burn, visitors can expect to see all of Rocky Patel's popular smokes, such as the Edge, the Decade, and many more. Patel is in the process of getting other cigar makers to produce limited edition cigars for the lounge too. Even those who are not fans of Patel's cigars have a reason to visit Burn, as it will also carry many cigars from other brands to give its visitors a wider selection to choose from.
