My friend J Rod really likes this place! Here is a picture of him enjoying his cigar.
We visit Cincinnati occasionally from Dallas, and always have a great experience. The Logan Flame (house) cigar is amazing!!!
Comfy sofas, nice variety of cigars at a wide range of price points. Wonderful Cuban coffee. Attentive servers and Mike was super helpful with suggestions at the humidor. Highly recommended for an evening of sips and cigars. So many top shelf and specialty whiskeys and bourbons!
A Timeless, Refined Atmosphere – Perfect for a Lowkey Celebration Came in on a Saturday night to celebrate my brother’s birthday. He wanted something nonchalant, lowkey, and manly, and this spot perfectly delivered. To elevate the evening, we all dressed in Roaring ‘20s attire, adding to the classy, vintage ambiance. The service was brief, professional, and courteous, ensuring we had what we needed without unnecessary interruptions. The bourbon and wine selection was impressive, catering to both casual drinkers and connoisseurs. Most of us went for Old Fashioneds, while I opted for a Cabernet—a perfect choice to complement the atmosphere. As expected, the aroma of cigars fills the air, so if you’re sensitive to smoke, be prepared—it’s part of the authentic lounge experience. Their cigar cellar, though small, is well-stocked with options ranging from 6 to 50. While I don’t have the most refined cigar palate, I stuck with a classic and wasn’t disappointed. Towards the end of the night, we were treated to a duet of talented musicians—two ladies performing Spanish violin music with stunning vocals. This was an unexpected but elegant touch, enhancing the already refined ambiance. If you’re looking for a place to unwind, sip quality drinks, and enjoy a relaxed yet upscale atmosphere, this lounge is highly recommended. I’ll definitely be back!
The first time I came here I was in Newport for a wedding, we went to this lounge and everything about it was great from service to cigar. Naturally, when I was back in town for work I had to visit again and it was every bit as good. Their bourbon selection is fantastic and well priced, the cigars are great, the service is phenomenal, and the beer is cold. 10/10 will be back!
Original review March 2020: After many years of coming to the Cincinnati area on business there is finally a nice cigar lounge. It is very spacious, good ventilation and a very relaxing setting. The staff is friendly and the drinks are very reasonably priced compared to other places I've been. Had a chance to chat with the owner Dallas who is a good guy and very knowledgeable about cigars. Check em out. Updated 4/11/25 - I had the pleasure of going back to Blaze Cigar Lounge this week and it is still going strong after my first visit 6 years ago. Summer had an amazing knowledge about cigars and a personality to match. And Shelly who is new is an amazing bartender and great addition to the Blaze staff. She is very personable and make amazing drinks.
Happen to stumble upon this place as I was in the area. My first time ever in Kentucky, I was warmly greeted by summer. She gave me a brief guide on where to find the cigars. Later, she made me an espresso and we chatted a bit about work, life in Kentucky, and great general conversation. She was warm and genuinely welcoming and I truly appreciate that . You guys have a gem on your hands and hope she is well taken care of . Atmosphere was perfect and ideal for a cigar shop , love it . Beautiful place . I’ve found my Kentucky cigar home . Thank you
Great cigar lounge in visit when traveling. The humidor has a good selection of your favorite sticks. Very friendly service and good air quality. Sometimes it can be hard to find a nice place to enjoy a drink and a cigar but this is a very nice place. You should give it a try... you'll like it, I guarantee it!
