Cigar Realm, Ashland

The earthy aroma of premium tobacco billows from the humidor shelves at Cigar Realm, a shop with more than 450 hand-rolled stogies covering a wide spectrum of shapes, sizes, and manufacturers. After perusing boxes of cigars from brands such as Padron, Montecristo, Ashton, and one of the area's largest selections of Perdomo, visitors can settle in with their chosen smoke in the store lounge—a handsomely appointed area with leather chairs, flat-screen TVs, and plenty of space to practice proposing marriage with a blown smoke ring.
