The scent of a cigar can awaken long-forgotten memories of the birth of a child or the year you spent sleeping in a humidor. Send the mind wandering through the smoky mists of history with today's Groupon to The Rocky Mountain Cigar Festival on Sunday, August 28 from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Millennium Harvest House in Boulder. Choose between the following options:

• For $13, you get a social ticket (a $27.08 value after taxes), which includes the following:
  • Admission to the festival
  • Access to food
  • Commemorative taster glass

• For $54, you get a general-admission ticket (a $108.31 value after taxes), which includes a gift bag with the following:
  • 20 premium cigars
  • Drink tickets
  • Commemorative taster glass, lighter, cigar cutter, Rocky Mountain Popcorn sampler, and two T-shirts

The Rocky Mountain Cigar Festival wafts an aromatic atmosphere of fine cigars, good music, and cold beers over a fun-stuffed afternoon also featuring contests, giveaways, and performances. A social ticket invites non-smokers attracted to the good times, luxury, and artisanal sleeping-bag-rolling characteristic of the cigar lifestyle, and a general-admission ticket procures a complimentary bag of 20 stogies and festival goodies. Throughout the outdoor garden, guests can sample pourings of fine libations from Twisted Pine, Boulder Beer, AC Golden, The Macallan, 303 Vodka, and Boulder Creek Wine; sup on lunch from Millennium Harvest House; wiggle pinky toes to the rhythms of festival performers Funkiphino; and peruse booths staffed by top cigar manufacturers, aficionados, and loquacious tobacco leaves from around the world.

In addition to savoring the sweet scent of masterfully cured tobacco, visitors enter into contests for prize giveaways, such as trips to Honduras for two to tour Camp Camacho or Rocky Patel's factory, as well as a chance to challenge billiards champ Jackie "The Angel Karol" to a game of pool or a smoke-ring contest.
