Monarca Cigars (Previously Smoke Ring - Sugar Land)

"Very relaxed atmosphere to sit down and smoke a cigar or pick one up for the house. As soon as you walk in you’re usually greeted by the clientele who’ve opted to enjoy their cigars in the lounge, and then by Gerry himself. He’s very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful if you ask for assistance in picking a cigar out. Selection is pretty good. You won’t find super rare one-off small batch sticks here, but you will find something up your alley at your desired price point. I’m extremely glad I found this spot for the times I’m in town!"

"Gerry and his family are awesome! Very nice selection of cigars that are fairly priced. If you catch the right day, you can stumble upon a party with the best dj's around."

"We love Smoke Ring Sugarland. We go every year for our friend Cecile's birthday and for NYE. It's tradition. Also, The family that owns it are the best people ever and we love them to bits. The pipes, cigars, and humidor are top notch and we highly recommend them. Go!"

"I was in a rush to get home after being stuck in traffic. I found this little gem and I’m a better person for it. It’s tucked away in a quiet shopping center. The owner walked up to me and shook my hand and introduced himself and offered to help me find me brand or something similar. I wish I could have spent a little more time but experienced enough to want to come back."

"Besides being the most relaxing, easy-going and up-to-date cigar lounge, the owners, to top it off, are some of the best people you could ever meet. The owner is extremely knowledgeable about cigars and tobacco. Never met someone so dedicated to his business and family. I just love the vibe of this place.. I'm shy, so it's not always easy for me to get comfortable in social settings. Here, however, it's hard not to feel like you belong. Plus they throw really cool events for those that like to party every now and then :) If you're looking for the perfect (or should I say perfecto!) cigar shop in Houston, this is it."
