A cigar roller in Manhattan New York

While walking in mid-town Manhattan yesterday I stumbled across Martinez Handmade Cigars on W. 29th Street. I would not have thought a factory (small) would still be in the borough. The display case says "Wholesale Only" but the gladly sell single cigars. It isn't a lounge but the one lounge chair was empty so they allowed me to sit with my smoke.

The cigars (I've smoked a different one at home this morning) are solid honest smokes but not fantastic. I've tried two "New York City Blends" and they are good enough that I will happily smoke more. There are no specifics flavor notes but no bad tastes as well. The construction is good.

Thank you for this. Looks like a place I'll be checking out soon. When in the Bronx, check out Rosario's at 323 East Gun Hill Rd., just a few blocks east of the Gun Hill Rd. exit off the Bronx River Parkway. Family-owned, and they're rolling the cigars in the shop.
