Old Town · North Scottsdale · Desert Ridge · Scottsdale, Arizona

Built for the
long ash.

The desert cools, the patios fill, and the good rooms keep the door open past when everywhere else has locked up. Arizona's tobacco-retailer exemption lets Scottsdale do the rare thing — a full bar and a legal indoor cigar under one roof — and the terraces do the rest. Some of the latest hours, and largest humidors, in the Southwest.

Fumar Cigars
Deer Valley · Phoenix, AZ

The most distinctive room in the Valley: a hidden 1920s-style speakeasy behind a casual storefront, with tribute and hidden rooms for groups. A members' club and retail shop — farther out, and worth the find.

A beloved Old Town boutique with a loyal-regular reputation and a spotless small-sample rating — an intimate shop-and-smoke a short walk from Fox. The daytime counterweight to the late-night bars.
