Managed by the same company is also Pierre Cigar Divan, part
of the Casa del Habano group. There is a nice bakery down-
stairs, which makes for an interesting match of flavors with your
favorite puro.
Or, head to the ever-trendy yet classic lobby lounge of the
Grand Hyatt Seoul and enjoy the good cigar selection, live band,
and fashionable crowd.
Moving on to warmer climates we have Bangkok and its
amicable chaos. In the lower lobby of the Grand Hyatt Erawan
proudly stands the P&L Club. Reserved to members and hotel
guests, it's a private sanctuary to enjoy over 80 selections of fin-
est single malt whiskies and over 240 selections of Cuban cigars.
Those in the know also visit the iconic Mandarin Oriental
Hotel by the Chao Praya River and its Casa del Habano, which is
just next to Bangkok's best jazz venue, the Bamboo Bar.
In Singapore, it's quite easy to find an outdoor space for
enjoying cigars, the warm tropical weather being most partial to
aficionados.
There are many preferred outlets, the first being Connoisseur
Divan, the largest of its kind with a mezzanine floor and a large
outdoor seating area. The live band playing jazz and Latin music
makes this place perfect if you're in the mood for a lively smoke!
However, you should not miss the renowned La Casa
Cubana in the Regent Singapore Hotel. It is Jimmy Ng's territory of
vintage wines and whiskies and outstanding "hard-to-find"
cigars; if you're ready to spend your hard-earned money, you'll
be in for an exceptional moment!
