Cigar Bar or Store near Port?

[HspncElvis]

Does anyone know if there are any cigar bars or stores near port? I'm always ready for a nice cuban cigar. :D

Well, I've always read to buy from "La Casa del Habano" to ensure authenticity, but I couldn't find one in St. Lucia. When I did a search for Cuban cigars in st. Lucia, I found a referal to Point Seraphine (near the port) and a store called Corpelin Liquor and Tobacco. You might ask cruise ship personnel for recommendations first though before buying to ensure you are getting the real deal.

I found a referal to Point Seraphine (near the port)

We went ashore in St.Lucia only briefly,

wandering thru the Point Seraphine Cruise Complex,

and then right back on board again..

but I did buy a small tin of 10 honey-flavoured TATIANA cigarillo's

in a Duty Free Store there, in the complex:

Made in Dominican Republic it says on the back! They're quite nice.

 

Also bought Toblerone chocolates in that store.

Couldn't vouch for Cubans, but I remember there was a fair selection of cigars

and other smoking material, sticks way bigger than I like,

so I was glad to find these mini-smokes, in several different flavours

...thought I'd go with the Honey's.

 

You'll find something, I'm sure.

For what it's worth,

here's a shot of my Tatiana cigar tin..

the one I bought at Point Seraphine.

 

Only five Honey-flavored cigarillos are left now

but I'm not throwing out that attractive tin

when they're all done!
