The following was Mark Weinberg's final blog post for us, before his untimely passing. We miss our dear friend.
My name is Mark Weinberg and I have been a customer of Maxis Cigar Lounge for the past six years.
On this blog I will be reviewing cigars, cigar toys as well as random related thoughts. I hope you will visit often and find my observations interesting and useful.
Yes I know it's been a very long time since I posted anything on this blog, but I had an experience this afternoon that has compelled me to take to my keyboard.
Since it was about 20 degree's when I left for work this morning I didn't take a cigar with me because I really don't like smoking outside when it so cold.
When I went out for lunch it wasn't too bad in the sun so I walked down to 14th street in NYC to a cigar store that opened about two years ago. At that time they promised to have a lounge and so I asked if the lounge was open yet. I was told it wasn't and would not be as the city told them that since they were a NEW establishment that were not permitted to have a lounge.
I went into the humidor and picked up a 1964 Padron Anniversario Maduro Principe (yes shocking lol) and went to pay for it.
I asked if it was okay to smoke it in the store and they responded by saying it wasn't permitted and I was made to feel it was a problem to even LIGHT UP in the store.
Our good friend Rocky Patel spoke to us during Maxi's holiday party about the increasing restrictions to our cigar enjoyment
