Finally, an amazing cigar lounge has opened in Louisville KY. Thanks to the owner Josh for not only opening up this lounge / cigar shop but he’s also the one who’s making this official! Starting April 24th 2025, we will be able to smoke indoors at this cigar lounge. First time visiting today, beautiful atmosphere, great selection of cigars at affordable prices & the owner Josh was very helpful & great to talk to.

Very excited to have another location in Louisville, where you can get a fabulous cocktail in an area where you can enjoy a very nice cigar. The first thing when I walked in, I was so impressed by the decor. The owner came directly out to introduce himself to me show me and showed me the humidor and educated me on different cigars that he had in stock. I would encourage everybody in the local area to support the Louisville Cigar Company and make it a very successful business. Tom Waller

Came with my dad and had a cocktail (chocolate raspberry espresso martini), it was so amazing. Beautiful decor and ambiance, my favorite is the patio, especially on a beautiful day. They even validated parking. Josh and Bill are so amazing and hospitable. So excited to see what great things are in store for them!

You don’t have to smoke cigars to absolutely LOVE this place. Tucked away in the historic Highlands District of Louisville this gem offers a gathering place for everyone. Step inside their beautiful humidor for a hand-rolled cigar...I won’t pretend to know much about cigars...but the smell of the tobacco was absolutely intoxicating!! The draw for me was the swanky Speakeasy...follow the lights and sounds of laughter to the back where you will find some of the most talented mixologists I’ve ever encountered creating thoughtful cocktails with top-shelf bourbon distilled right here in the birthplace of the magical brown liquid gold. (They have other types of alcoholic beverages but idc about those). Check in with Bill for a quality cigar and then go see the lovely Miss Ria to imbibe a cocktail to remember! This is a MUST VISIT for anyone coming to Louisville!!!

My wife and I went here last night to check it out. What a fantastic place. Great atmosphere and the owner is very warm and welcoming. The bartender took the time out to explain each cocktail the time and effort put into each one was pure art. She truly has a passion to put the best into each cocktail. We had great conversation through out our time there and we plan on going back again tonight and get a chance to check out the humidor.

We had a great time at the Louisville Cigar Company. This place has a nice selection of premium cigars and a swanky bar. The bartender is entertaining and as much of an experience as the drinks. The outdoor seating is uncovered and great for evening smoking, while the upstairs rooms are comfy and air conditioned. This is the nicest cigar lounge in the city.

Ended up stopping in last weekend to check out the new opening and was not disappointed. It's a welcoming, warm environment as you would expect of a cigar lounge. Wood flooring, earth/brown colors and lighting that is not harsh on the eyes. I checked out the humidor and the cigar prices were very reasonable. The owner (Josh if I recall correctly) invited me in and discussed a current promotion they were offering as well as checked if I needed any advice. He seems like a down to earth guy and I'm sure we will speak plenty again. For opening weekend we were also sent home with a complimentary cigar and rocks glass. A touch thst was very much appreciated. Smoking indoors is not allowed quite yet but be sure to check out both the upstairs and downstairs areas to find which space fits you best. I went back downstairs to the bar to grab a drink and took recommendations from the staff. The head bartender Tanis is fantastic! Try out the espresso martini if that's in your wheelhouse. Small group but it seems like a place where regulars will thrive going forward. Can't be a regular if you don't try it out.!
