Nestled in the heart of Dubai, amongst the sand dunes of iconic Palm Jumeirah, is a private sanctuary, entitled The Cigar Room. With sweeping views of the Dubai Marina, this Arabian-inspired oasis serves up excellence in a refined and luxurious hideaway.
The Cigar Room, tucked away inside the tranquil Fairmont Hotel, boasts an extensive collection of some of the world’s finest single malt whiskeys, all exclusively on offer to its patrons. Along with an ample selection of Cuban and Dominican cigars, The Cigar Room serves both classic and signature cocktails, as well as offering a variety of shisha services to its distinguished guests.
Guests can relax on dark leather sofas and sip on one of the largest collections of bourbons in the city, a collection nonetheless carefully curated by The Cigar Room’s master sommelier. The outdoor terrace delivers on the views, where guests can gaze over the Arabian Gulf and admire the sunset mingling with the silhouette of the Marina’s skyline. Located in Dubai’s most sought-after island scene, this ‘spiritual home’ for whiskey employs stunning architecture reminiscent of the area’s history.
In a bid for even more exclusivity and prestige, The Cigar Room has teamed up with a number of legendary partners to curate an elegant atmosphere. In addition, The Cigar Room has collaborated with the cognac brand, Louis XIII, to curate a distinctive, personal, and above all, opulent, experience, as the world’s first Louis XIII private members club, truly acting as a model retreat for VIP guests.
Alongside the sommelier’s hand-picked list of Champagnes and wines, The Cigar Room serves signature cocktails incorporating fun flavours, such as the Enigma, with Hennessy VS, Taylor's late bottled vintage, nutmeg, and cranberry bitters, or the Euphoria, with Herradura Silver, mixed with pineapple juice, coriander, chilli, mint, and ginger ale. To enjoy along with these drinks, rich and decadent bar snacks such as foie gras crumble, beef tartare, and salmon tartare, are provided, with more international flavours also on hand, like Korean fried chicken wings, and hoisin duck spring rolls. But it is the extensive collection of whiskey that is the star of the show at the iconic Cigar Room.
