Fuente's Cigar Bar








































Casa Fuente the premier cigar lounge at Caesar's Palace. This is a top notch
establishment with all the amenities. There is an outdoor courtyard over
looking the Caesar's Forum Shops or you can sit at the lavish bar inside. If
you wish you can order a premium beer on tap or dip into a rich liqueur poured
over ice. There are several coffee choices or blended fruit cognacs.

The bar is made of a dark grained wood with gold trim with large mirrors on
the walls. The floor is inlaid with beautiful tiles. There are several cases with
gorgeous accessories such as ashtrays and lighters and the walls have more
items like custom hats, shirts and light fluids.

The humidor is one to remember! The large steel and glass doors open to a big
open area full of cigars. The store obviously carries Fuente cigars and several
other top brands. The pricing is a tad on the high side but considering you are
at Caesar's and in the presence of beautiful people this could be over looked!

So the next time you are at Caesar's stop by Casa Fuente and you might just see
your favorite star puffing away on a premo cigar (as the photo above with Andy
Garcia and Arturo Sandoval or maybe the man himself Carlos Fuente Jr.)!

Vegas Is Smokin......





The Tobacco Leaf

7175 W Lake Mead Blvd
Las Vegas, NV 89128
702-432-3000

Well I have to say after a hard days work or on a quiet Sunday afternoon there
is no place like the Tobacco Leaf to relax and smoke a premium cigar! There are
two stores conveniently located in Las Vegas. The first is located on the south side
of town at
9400 S Eastern Ave and the second is on the north-west side of town
at 7175 W. Lake Mead Blvd. I have been to both stores and they are equally
stocked and pleasantly decorated!

I will base the majority of this article on the Lake Mead Store. This is the latest
addition and I might add the nicest one! Upon entering the store you get a real
feel for what a old world cigar shop would have been like, but with a new world
makeover. The floors are marbleized and there is stone on the walls. A beautiful
stone wet bar with a coffee machine greets you as you enter as well. There is a
wooden antique styled shelving that adorns the whole right wall and cabinets
full of gifts. The walk in humidor stares at you as if it was a separate store in its
self! Lurking behind the humidor door lies over 1000 different sticks for your
picking! You can enjoy sticks from all over the world and believe me they are as
fresh as you can get.

There is more.....head to the back and through another doorway and you reach a
lounge filled with leather couches and chairs. Painted beautifully and appropriate
art work on the wall this sanctuary is a cigar heaven! There is a large table to hold
your stick while you sit back and watch the large flat screen TV. It just doesn't get
ant better than this......oh but it does! There are many very special events held here
with owners and rollers of the top cigar manufacturers. I can say that everyone who
visits this establishment truly has a cultured cigar moment that lasts forever! I
have made great friends in this store.

The Leaf as we call it is full of your favorite brands like, Aston, La Gloria Cubana,
Macanudo, Cohiba, Torano, Padron, Punch, Gurkha, C.A.O., Rocky Patel and many
many more.
You can pick up any accessory you can think of like humidors, lighters, butane,
cutters, shirts and much more.....

In closing this fine establishment carries everything you need or want and supplies
you with the most comfortable setting in which to smoke. Come on by and make
some new friends and relax!
