Super Bowl XLIV is just a week away! Whether your favorite part is the on-field action, the commercials, the food or just gathering with friends and family, there are bound to be good times.

Are you ready? Whether you’re throwing a party yourself or going to an event hosted by someone else, don’t forget to make it extra special by picking up some cigars from Cigar Grotto. If you’re unsure what sort of variety to pick up, we can help! We’re always happy to make recommendations so that you and your friends can enjoy a great smoke together. Happy Game Day!

A HUGE thanks to everyone who came out for The Godfather Cigar Social. We really packed out Hennessey’s back patio! It thrilled Gregg and I to see so many of the faces we have come to know and love over the years, as well as a few new faces. We saw that some of you were taking pictures during the evening and invite you to send those pictures in to so that we can add your best shots to our album and share them with the rest of our fans!

The next event is already being planned for February 26 (details to be announced soon) at Hennessey’s in Carlsbad, so if you missed out on the fun this time around, be sure to mark your calendar. We’ll be celebrating our 10th anniversary and it promises to be one heck of a party. We look forward to seeing you there!

Are you new to the Cigar Grotto family? Find out how we got our name and see our pride and joy, the walk-in humidor. If your friends haven’t been into the shop yet, invite them to take a peek inside with this fun new virtual tour, then bring them down to the shop to see for themselves!

With the holidays now behind us, gifts have all been unwrapped, the lights and ornaments are taken down and carefully packed away until next year, the eggnog has long since been polished off, vacations have drawn to a close and lives have slowed back to a normal, whatever that is. But what hasn’t faded is our desire to gather with our friends.

Once again, we have partnered with Hennessey’s Tavern in Carlsbad to bring you an unforgettable event: The Godfather Cigar Social. On Thursday, January 28^th, from 6-9pm, join us while we enjoy delicious food, great wine, fine cigars and the company of other cigar aficionados as the original Godfather movie plays. Please visit our Facebook page for more information about the event and to let us know you’ll be joining us. We hope to see you there!
