Fuego by Sosa Cigars at Walt Disney World

[boonedoggle]

I was just reading about this place in the latest edition of SMOKE mag. My wife's company is sending her to the area in March, and we're hoping to go to WDW then. Thought it might be a cool place to hang out!

Wow, interesting comments on the thread from Disney fans! Typical responses to a nice smoking bar.

I stop in Fuego occasionally on my way to concerts at the closeby House Of Blues.

It's nice, but most of the sticks are mega expensive in my experience, but to be expected in the high rent district of Downtown Disney.

Nevertheless, I'd love to meet up and herf with ya there.

Was there this past March and they have a roller there every single day. I would highly reccomend getting one of the fresh rolled and lighting it up immediately. Prices are a little high but I spoke with the owner for bout an hour while standing inside the walk in and he told me that it was nice speaking to someone who knew about cigars for a change. Apparently most of his tourist clients are college kids looking for Acid's and Macanudo's. Brought a few of the house sticks home with me that you can only get there and they were all very good. Enjoy!

there are two sosa cigar shops at downtown disney. i went to the one near wolfgang pucks and picked up a few opus there. prices were about 3$ bucks above msrp and they had a limit of two per client but were easily talked away from that. they were quite expensive on some of the others, selling aurora emeralds for 25$ each.

Was there this summer, very expensive. That's why they can advertise they have several sizes of Opus X in stock, because they have them so expensive that they can keep them in stock.

That is cool. I remember in 2000 at WDW I had to make my way to Tampa to find a rolling operation with great smokes while on vacation with the family. That is very cool!

Sounds like Corona with thier 25 dollar Anejos and 30 dollar Opus.

I picked up a RP Vintage 92 at Sosa to smoke before a show and paid 14 bucks. I was smoking on the patio of House of Blues on a nice night and it seemed worth it.

maybe i got there at the right time but it was 14 bucks for a robusto opus when i was there and 11 for the xXx. i keep all my "business" receipts for write off's and that's what i remember seeing.

Looks like a cool place to check out. My buddy/coworker was there last week. When I came into work this morning he bombed me with a 6 pack sampler of Sosa Cigars. Look forward to trying them.

No kidding! The claws were out there, for sure! Let us know what you find there, Boone.

I tried a Sosa Pyramid #9 there a few weeks back...really enjoyed it. Yes the cigars are all higher priced than a store, but it's a real bar where you can sit and have a real smoke (drank a Sam Adams with it...mmmm)

do they frown on you bringing your own stash in?
