Tobacco King

Cigar lovers in Hialeah have found something good in Tobacco King, and word gets around fast. This is a shop built around premium cigars and the people who shop here keep coming back for two reasons: the selection and the prices. Ask anyone who buys their sticks here and they'll tell you the pricing on premium cigars is hard to beat, which matters whether you're stocking a humidor at home or grabbing a gift. The service is where this place really earns its reputation.

Mo, one of the owners, is the name locals keep bringing up. People say he knows his cigars inside and out and treats everyone like a regular from the first visit. One gentleman who's lived in the area for fifty years finally got a cigar store right next to him, and Mo helped him track down the right pieces for his humidor along with some good smokes at a fair price. We've heard the same kind of story more than once: a visitor from out of town looking for a cigar punch was told to just bring his cigars in and use the shop's cutters rather than get pushed into a purchase.

That's the kind of place this is. Claudia gets plenty of praise too, known for being patient and knowledgeable, once showing a traveler how to keep cigars fresh on the road between Miami and Massachusetts. Beyond the cigars, you'll find cigarettes, hookah and shisha, and the smoking accessories to go with them. If they happen to be out of what you're after, the team has been known to point you toward another spot under the same ownership rather than send you off empty-handed.

Fair prices, real cigar knowledge, and a welcoming owner have made Tobacco King one of the highest-rated cigar shops around. If you're passing through Miami or you call Hialeah home, folks say it's more than worth the stop. Ask for Mo.
