Kansas: Wichita Lounge Opening

[ssutton219]

ABC Cigars West is having its Grand Opening on Nov. 7th


"Just wanted to send a quick email out to let everyone know that "The Humidor West" will have a grand opening party on Saturday, November 7th. We were not sure about the date until today because of a special guest appearance...SAM LECCIA, The maker of NUb Cigars and also the New Full bodied cigar known as CAIN, Will be attending our little cigar party grand opening! We're not sure of his arrival time to the West Side "Humidor", but he will be bringing a rolling table and making some of his wicked cool cigars, and there will be massive party sales (buy 4 sticks, get 1 free, buy a box get a tshirt, and maybe some other goodies I can't disclose at the present time). But the best thing is that the humidor cigar shop and lounge on BOTH sides of town are open and ready for business November 7th. That's right! Our east ABC Fine Cigars is getting a lounge as well. That means a warm place to smoke all winter long on either side of town! We will start smoking around 11 a.m. and we aren't stopping til everyones to tired to continue! no more parking lot parties for us! We will still be having Dale's amazing FREE BBQ, and this is shaping up to be one of our wildest parties ever! Come and pick up a membership-the best way to have a spot to smoke at the new shop (a membership to either lounge will get you into the other one, as well), and check out the new place on the 7th of November with Sam from NUb!

Thanks and see ya soon!"



I will be there!!

Hey Shawn, what is the address for the new lounge? I am not able to go, I have to work this upcoming weekend and can't get anyone to cover for me since everyone else is using up their vacation at this time! But I'd like to know it for future references when I do make it to Wichita again. Thanks!

I don't know the exact address. But it is just east of the intersection at 21st St. W. and Tyler Rd. On the NE Corner. It shares a parking lot with ABC Liquor... Hope this helps

I stopped in at the East store and it's coming along. Kinda small but they don't have a lot of room to work with. Looks reall nice though. Nice cozy feeling. I think I can make it to this one out West.

The Chateau finally burned you eh? Well, it gets everyone eventually. I'll try to stop by but the wife is dragging me to that durned Wicked musical in the middle of the day. So, membership is required? Any ideas what this constitutes?

Done with Cigar Chateau huh? Well my brother went to the liquor store thats right beside there and seen there was a cigar shop and he went in there and called me to see what I'd suggest a cigar for him. He was looking around and seen some Padron Anny's with MOLD!! all over them. Then I realized that was the cigar place you went to and seen there was 'Good Mold' on some other cigars. He said they had a good selection of smokes, but they weren't very friendly. I'll definately take both of your guys' words for it.

[baddddmonkey]

Oh yea, thanks everyone for providing info with the address and everything! Hopefully we can all catch up and get a herf going soon!

Yeah finally tired of the BS they call customer service...I dont know if there will be a membership to smoke in the lounge...if there is it will be the only time I go..I can understand a purchase and smoke policy but I can smoke in my garage just as easily

Yep that and the response I got when I asked about Draks and Boris.

They can run their business any way they want but I will not send anyone I know or buy from them again.

The Lounge does have a membership. But the way I understand it is that if you purchase $10 in sticks you are welcome to sit in the lounge and enjoy them. I was somewhat disappointed when I found out it was a membership lounge but I guess the building and HD TVs don't pay for themselves. It is nice to know you can just buy a couple cigars and enjoy them in their lounge. Either way, I am glad to have a nice place to go on the West side so I am going to try to do my part to support it, even if I can't afford the yearly membership.

Shawn, I am heading out of town on Saturday about 12:30. So I am going to try to make it from 11 to 12 or so. Maybe I'll see ya there?

I can handle a 10 buck user fee...I don't get out enough to really need a monthly or yearly membership but I can spend 10 bux and enjoy the lounge...

That is kinda how I feel Shawn. But I really like just buying $10 in their cigars to smoke there. However, I could see myself getting a monthly membership in Dec/Jan when even the garage is too cold and I don't want to have to buy their sticks. Whatever happens I am really excited to have a cool place to hang out and smoke. So let's try to keep it open!

Shawn, what time are you getting there?

Shawn

[ssutton219]

I went and now I am back.


AWESOME PLACE AND PEOPLE!!!

Good-great selection..1st time i have seen GoF in wichita (havent looked that hard before)

Gordan and Ryan(sp) and of course Joe (sp) and the rest of the staff are some of the nicest and laid back people I have ever bought cigars with.


If anyone is ever in the Wichita Area you have to stop in and enjoy a stick...I don't know anyone who can go in to a shop and not spend 10bux so you can enjoy the lounge.
