I finally got to visit here and it did not disappoint. They have a great selection, but not everything is actually for sale unless you're a "long-term" customer. It is a fun place, and I was still able to buy some nice singles. Shane was friendly and helpful. read more

A fantastic collection of Cuban cigars! Prices are average for what one would expect to spend for a genuine Habano ($25-$110+ per stick) but the selection is huge. If you are visiting Oranjestad and are looking for Cubanos, this is the place to come if you want to be assured of the real deal - not fakes! read more

It would appear that your experience here depends on who you get waiting on you. I chatted with a young guy, Shane, and he was nice as pie. I told him what I wanted, he focused my search, and boom, got it done in 20 minutes or so. Unfortunately I did not have the time to hang out, or tap into his cigar expertise, but if I did I'm sure ol' Shane would had have chewed the fat with the best of 'em. Very swanky place, but nice folks. read more

While in Amstedam a few months ago my Wife and I had the pleasure to visit this exquisite shop near the museums multiple times during our stay. Their selection of Habanos is vast and includes some gems mixed in with all of the stalwart Cohibas, Montes, Partagas and R&J's. The guys that work here - Didi and Christophe were exceptionally nice to my Wife and me and we had some very good cigar conversation. Like me they have a serious passion for not just Habanos but cigars in general. They gave us a tour of the downstairs inviting us to smoke in their lounge and showed us their impressive aging room. Over the past 20 years I have had the pleasure of visiting 300+ tobacconists on four continents and the LCDH Amsterdam easily makes my top five. During the couple weeks in the Netherlands we also went to visit the famous, overrated PGC Hajenius which was as much of a letdown as Peterson's of Dublin. Any serious cigar smoker in Amsterdam should patronize the LCDH where their staff are great guys that truly love cigars versus the posers in suits at PGC that wouldn't know the difference between a Vegas Robaina and a Vegueros. Architecturally this is a beautiful shop and add in the selection and great team that work there and this is a serious winner. Plus the €45K grand piano humidor with specially banded Montecristos is definitely worth checking out. We live 5,500 miles from here so I found it ironic that this wonderful shop is directly across the street from a great watch store (Ace Jewelers) that I have purchased from several times. read more

La Casa del Habano - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

My expectations on this place was a little higher than the actual visit, that was my only major let down. For those that don't know, La Casa del Habano is the official importer of the Habanos S.A., the Cuban brands of cigars. The store is actually inside the very well designed Conservatorium Hotel with other luxury retailers. I thought the design of the La Casa del Habano was going to be better with maybe separate rooms or a better layout. But the place is just a square room with high ceilings and displays of cutters and lighters in the middle. I was taking photos when I entered and the host of the facility said "you take many photos" in a very blunt way, I assume he didn't like me taking photos, so I stop. After talking with him, it turns out he is a nice guy, so I continue taking more photos but the humidity vapors were fogging up my lens, so I stop because the photos near the cigars were coming out foggy. The huge shelf of racks on the wall have massive amounts of Cuban cigars, pretty darn wide as about three cars bumper to bumper. The host literally needed a 20 feet ladder to reach the ones on top. The place is bright considerably due to the huge windows that allow the daylight in. La Casa del Habano overlooks a fine restaurant called Tunes. One end of the store are the shelf of cigars; in the corner there is a piano lined inside with cigars. The other end of the store are fine champagnes like 2000 Dom Perignon and Moet to accompany your cigar if you choose to purchase one or the host will offer coffee, a quality bean: Jamaican Blue Mountain. This end where the champagnes are displayed are 4 leather couches and little coffee tables on your side with ash trays where you can smoke your purchase. The ones I bought to go are placed inside a light cardboard or thick paper like protector, included are long stick matches with the Habanos S.A. logo. The Behike 52 I smoked there was cut very smoothly and torched perfectly by the host. While smoking my cigar the host did his own work on his laptop then took a moment of time to smoke his own vintage Romeo y Julieta accompanied by a wine with me. He was attentive when I spoke and answered without hesitation when I asked questions or inquired of something but also let me concentrate on my reading and work while I relaxed with my smoke. There's minor reading material available like a cigar magazine and an up to date issue of National Geographics. After I thanked him, he thanked me as well for the time. If you have an hour to spare while in the Museum district go for a smoke or just to check it out. read more

They've moved to another unit in the hotel and they now have their own smoking room! Yay! Too bad there's nobody there, nor does KPN 3G reach down there, which makes for a lonely time. Still, this is one of the best selections in the city, especially if you're looking for rare double or triple band sticks. -1 for them not having Dupongaz refills, though. So for a few weeks they'd let the riff raff smoke downstairs but it seems like that's no longer the case. Sucks. read more

Great and awesome selection. Prices are reasonable and lots of stock on hand. This is a must see store.

Beautiful shop in a 5 star hotel but the cashier could not be bothered to even say hello. I am no cigar aficionado and was dressed in normal street clothes but I was hoping to take some Cuban cigars back to a few of my friends. I guess I'll go somewhere e read more

Staff very helpful selecting for a gift. Opened several boxes to find a good match. Cheaper prices than Canada lol. Selection was comprehensive. read more

I have to give it two stars because of the great selection. The shopkeeper was rather uninterested in my business, and the cigar lounge down the stairs is opened only for members with no option for one time pay use. If a cigar shop has a smoking area, the price of entry should be a cigar purchased there. I will skip this next time and opt for P.G.C. Hajenius, where the selection is great, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the lounge is free. Customer service matters, so keep that in mind Casa Del Habano read more

I cannot mark no stars - so, one is overly generous! While in the city I was looking to buy two boxes of sticks to take back home. The previous evening I had spotted this place and came back today looking to smoke a stick and if good - buy two boxes. Nope! Upon requesting if there was a smoking lounge the food chomping cashier stated "members only"....I mentioned I was from out of town...nope, didn't matter as there were "two members watching soccer". Screech...on went the brakes, made a quick u-turn and I was out of there. If you can't offer an out of town guest a place to smoke a stick on a cold rainy day I'll take my business elsewhere. I hope those two members are going to buy two boxes of #2 Montecristos...if not, you have more to sell today to break even to pay for your expensive space in that fancy hotel! Note to others - if you are from out of town - don't bother with this place. Selection with no customer service = good luclk staying in business as you need someone to buy your product. On my way to PCG Hajenius right now. read more

Best selection at a LCDH shop I've been to and the Best!!!!!!! Customer Service!!!!!! Completely amazing people that truly define GREAT!!!!

Excellent shop in the Hague. Has become my favorite haunt. Must be the best collection of Cuban cigars in the Netherlands. Cosy and elegant place where you can smoke your favorite cigar and try out new ones while having a nice chat with other aficionados. The proprietor Yvonne is a charming and attentive host. Friends coming over from the US and UK insist on beginning our evenings out in Casa del Habanos. read more
