I am going to be up in Tampa in four weeks for a friend's wedding, and wanted to spend a few hours in Ybor City. What are some of the best stores/lounges/bars to have a cigar in? Do any of them compare to Corona in Orlando?
None of them compare to corona in orlando. Tampa sweethearts has a good selection of some fuente stuff. King corona has great coffee but their cigar selection kinda sucks. (No liga privada, tatuaje, viaje, or illusione stuff)
Id make my way to cigar castle off of Fowler/56. Full liquor bar plus tons of beer on tap. They stock all of the brands I listed above and sometimes you can find some HTF stuff.
I love Ybor City...take your time and visit as many shops as you can and if you have time hit up Tampa Humidor off Busch Blvd....great place with so many cigars, humidors, chairs and great deals.
I am going to Corona a couple weeks later when I am in Orlando visiting another friend. Also, I only have a few hours of free time as I need to pick up a friend at the Tampa Airport, and go to the rehearsale dinner that night.
