Have a cigar offers a massive walk in humidor with an amazing selection of premium cigars. I recently read the cigar companion by cigar aficionado and it said to ask lot of questions and rely on your tobacconist when you have questions, so when I went it I did exactly that. I was able to get my hands on a great introductory humidor and a nice little selection of cigars. The lady working there was really helpful and nice, she walked me through some great options and told me how to setup the humidor. When it was all said and done she even threw in 2 lbs of Cuban coffee as a little extra treat after we were rung through. It’s those little extras that are missing in a lot of retail experiences but was most welcome at have a cigar, I can’t wait to go back!

If you’re looking for a smoke shop this is the place to go. It has a nice variety and when I went it they had brought in a person to roll and create cigars from nicaragua. Fun collection of smoke and weed paraphernalia. Lots of parking.

They have a really good selection of cuban and non cubans, their humidor is definitely on the higher side of things but like others have mentioned, it is Alberta. If you live here and have a humidor, you know what kind of work it takes to keep it above that 70% range. That being said, Ive bought a few cigars here over the years and they smoke just fine. Only issue I’ve ever had with the place are the prices, they’re definitely one of the pricier specialty tobacco stores in the city. I won’t mention other businesses but you can expect to pay a couple dollars more on average on an average $ 12-$ 15 cigar. But if Im in the neighborhood and my humidor is between orders from cheaper sources, I’d still pop in for quickie.

By far the best tobacconists in Edmonton. Have everything from the novice to the aficionado. Very friendly staff will help anyone from anywhere out. Whether its for a nice cup of Cuban Coffee, a smooth Cohiba, or an extensive collection of pipe loose tobacco. Defiantly the place to check out for all things tobacco.

By far the best selection in town and great service. As for the first reviewer, they do not like to keep their humidity at 80RH, the ideal humidity for cigars is 71−72RH. At 80RH you would have mold on everything. The problem is we live in a super dry climate in AB and the minute you open the door to the Humidors you let out a lot of humidity by almost 10RH or more, a walk in Humidors has to have a higher level of RH than a cabinet. If the hygrometers read 80RH, it could be misreading or early in the morning after humidifiers have been running all night. Having said that, check out their Aficiando featured cigars that are unique to them and the Special edition cubans. Everything is in great shape, they really look after their cigars unlike most convenience style smoke shops. By far the best in town, a must stop for USA tourists.

Hav-a-cigar has a great selection of cigars, as well as a huge walk-in humidor. Their prices are also really reasonable, and their service has always been friendly and helpful. They also have a decent selection of humidors, lighters and other smoking paraphernalia. They like to keep their humidor a little wet though(~80%), which may or may not bother some people. Overall, excellent cigar shop!
