Der Zigarrenmacher

Last week I was invited to an event at Otto Hatje, Zigarrenmacher, and as the name says, that's what we did. That isn't really what this shop offers, cigar making I mean, that is done by professional cigar makers, but what it does offer is a nice selection of fresh cigars and a knowledgeable owner happy to advise you, whose personal passion for cigars is obvious in his charming and understated demeanor. You will find cigars from all over the world, but also house brands made especially for Otto Hatje, by cigar makers here in Germany. There is also a nice assortment of rums. I left with some pleasantly aromatic Cuban cigars one of which this lady cigar smoker has already smoked and I liked it. It's not my fault, my Daddy put me up to it we have a tradition of smoking a cigar together every time I'm home in Texas. But after googling I found I am in good company among others Demi Moore and Sharon Stone. Go have a look! In the back of the store is a cozy cigar lounge. Maybe we'll run into each other there.
