CigarNews.ca is Canada’s independent online publication dedicated to premium cigars, cigar culture, cigar travel, lounges, events, industry news, product reviews, and the people who make the cigar community unique.
Founded by passionate cigar enthusiasts, CigarNews.ca was created to provide Canadian cigar smokers with a trusted source of information that reflects the realities of cigar culture in Canada and around the world. While mainstream media often groups premium cigars together with cigarettes and other tobacco products, we believe premium cigars deserve thoughtful, fact-based discussion and coverage of their own.
From cigar lounges in Vancouver and Toronto to cigar factories in the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Honduras, Nicaragua, and beyond, our goal is simple:
To celebrate cigar culture while informing and connecting Canada’s cigar community.
