Alacranes, Cuba Cigars

If you know cigars in Lake Worth Beach, you already know Alacranes, Cuba Cigars. This is a family owned shop where everything is handmade, and locals will tell you that's the whole point. Peter, the owner most folks call Pete, runs the place, and ask anyone who shops here and Pete's name comes up first.

He rolls his own cigars, and people who visit swear by his knowledge, from the Connecticut wrappers to a bourbon infused smoke that one regular called one of the most flavorful he'd ever tasted. What keeps people coming back is the way Pete treats them. We've heard stories of him tossing in an extra handcrafted cigar for someone to try, cutting and lighting a customer's cigar right at the counter, and walking newcomers through his whole cigar making process without ever rushing.

The word around Lake Worth Beach is that Pete is as much a host as a shopkeeper. The lounge is warm and easygoing, the kind of place where you settle in, light up, and end up talking cigars for an hour longer than you planned. The selection covers plenty of ground, so a seasoned aficionado and someone just getting into cigars will both find something worth taking home.

One person put it plainly: best cigar shop they'd ever been to, hands down. With a strong reputation built over many years of loyal folks, this is a genuine local favorite for anyone in Lake Worth Beach who takes their cigars seriously. Stop in, meet Pete and his family, and you'll understand why so many people count him not just as their cigar guy but as a friend.
