Cortez Cigars

Bar Lounge Cigar shop

👍👍 Cortez makes wonderful cigars. They make mostly mild to medium bodied cigars focusing on aromatics and flavor. They are excellently hand made with a great draw. They have a couple of heavier cigars that are VERY nice as well. The prices are reasonable for what you're getting mostly in the $8-10... People often mention cigars, Cortez, cigar, great,

    Cortez makes wonderful cigars. They make mostly mild to medium bodied cigars focusing on aromatics and flavor. They are excellently hand made with a great draw. They have a couple of heavier cigars that are VERY nice as well. The prices are reasonable for what you're getting mostly in the $8-10 range. Their lounge has an amazing ventilation system and the leather couches are comfortable to relax in and enjoy your cigar. The staff are friendly, helpful and really know their trade. You should not over look this gem all other stores sell only name brands. Cortez only sells their own, which is a must try!

    They only sell Cortez hand rolled cigars. The cigars rolled in the Dominican Republic. They have light to full bodied cigars. The owner is a cigar roller, manufacturer, and distributer of the Cortez brand, and highly knowledgeable of the cigars and willing to discuss the construction and makeup of any Cortez cigar. It's worth the time and money to pay a visit and meet the owner.

    Hired Cortez Cigars for my wedding in Baltimore. Super professional, beautiful layout and presentation and excellent service. The cigars were fantastic and my guests absolutely loved this service. It was unique and it added an additional touch of class to my event. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a unique and reasonably priced addition to their event. Thanks again guys!

    Cortez is very cozy, quiet with no drama lounge. A nice comfort from other lounges plus the cigar prices are very inexpensive. These boutique cigars come with some age and each of them have great flavors, a must try, but take my word for it. Go check it out for yourself. This was a great experience as I met with the owner, Cristian Cortez who provided the history of his cigars and his vision for tobacconists. Cris is old school Latino who welcomes everyone like an uncle and provides the ultimate family feeling when you come through his doors. This is a great change of atmosphere with a warm feeling of an old cigar store front that is unique with a classic vintage touch. If your looking for a quality cigar and not having to pay for a label or name brand, then this boutique cigar called Cortez is your new location. Stop by and say hello to Tio Cristian for me.

    A great homemade cigar store that produces some amazing cigars. Everyone that I have gotten them for love them. Smooth, not harsh. Though like selection, you'll definitely find one that meets your taste, just ask the support helpful proprietor.

    Amazing cigars. I’ve tried pretty much every big box cigar out there and consistently come back to Cortez. The quality cigar you get from here for the price cannot be beat.
