On Saturday, July 27, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., stogy connoisseurs gathered for the Cigar Social at Studio Square NYC to enjoy premium whiskey tastings, cigars custom-made by Rocky Patel, unlimited barbecue, and live entertainment. I had tickets to go, but alas fate had other plans that day.

Studio Sq. has recently become one of the hottest venues in New York City for cigar smokers. Starting last Summer, they’ve hosted some of the most massive cigar events in NYC. Probably the best part of having Studio Sq. in service of the NYC cigar community is that management there has brought an incredible knowledge of cigars, whiskey, and entertainment, as well as an impressive list of connections together to create some amazing events.

Here are some photos from the recent Cigar Social. Don’t miss out on their future events! Follow Studio Sq on Twitter or sign up for the FineTobaccoNYC event mailing list for cigar event invites.

Event Recap: SMOKE Whiskey, Cigar & BBQ Festival at Studio Sq NYC

, , , 0

DSC01411-001

On May 18th, I had the remarkable luck of being able to attend SMOKE: Whiskey, Cigar & BBQ Festival hosted by Studio Sq NYC, one of New York City’s top nightlife and large event venues. At the event, over 300 New York City cigar smokers gathered to enjoy great barbecue, cigars by Rocky Patel, and exceptional spirits from Jameson, Chivas, Glenlivet and more.

I arrived a few minutes late, but just in time to watch the skies open up and begin pouring rain on what was forecasted to be a beautiful sunny day. But the weather in this city has a way of changing at the last minute.

In any case, the event was moved inside – and by that I mean to a massive indoor/outdoor smoking space that was easily big enough for three hundred cigar smokers. I took a seat with my girlfriend inside and we traded thoughts on the Jameson Black Barrel and the Chivas 12. Then the live music started, followed by more food, raffles for cigar accessories and a humidor, and more.

Following the event, a big portion of the group moved downstairs to the S Prime Steakhouse for more drinks and more good times.

I want to give a shout out to Jennifer Barker and Steve for hosting such an amazing event, along with the awesome ostrich-leather cigar case. I also want to thank Rocky Patel cigars for the great complimentary cigars, and all of the spirits sponsors who attended the event!

Studio Sq will be having more events in the future, and if they are sponsored by FineTobaccoNYC, you can hear about future events from us by signing up for our event emails!

Also at the event will be a four hour open bar featuring Chivas, Jameson, Glenlivet, and many other fine spirits. And of course, BBQ will be provided.

Tickets look like they are regularly priced at a little over $200, but you can get your ticket for under $100 at Groupon – but you have to act fast.
