EL ENEMIGO
by george rico
The George Rico El Enemigo cigar is a premium offering for cigar enthusiasts seeking a medium to full-bodied smoke with a complex flavor profile. The cigar features a rich and oily Habano wrapper from Ecuador, which is complemented by a binder of Habano from the same region. The fillers consist of a carefully selected blend of tobacco from three countries: the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and Colombia. This combination of tobaccos results in a well-balanced and nuanced smoking experience, with earthy notes of dark chocolate and spice. The George Rico El Enemigo cigar is a must-try for aficionados seeking a high-quality and flavorful smoke.

MEET OWNER STEVE PAL
Established in 1997, the first location opened on the border of Creve Coeur and Chesterfield. I knew I wanted a destination for tobacco enthusiasts to relax while enjoying a cigar or pipe. At the time, the cigar bar concept was new to the country with only a handful of places available like New York, Chicago and California. Like most small business start-ups, the first few years were a growing and learning experience while trying to get the concept of the cigar bar into the minds of our customers. Fast forward 26 years later...still growing and learning.

I would say the majority of cigar enthusiasts started smoking what we call domestics. Those are usually referred as "machine made" cigars using short filler tobacco and who knows what else. I know because that's how I started, but one day, many years ago, a friend of mine introduced me to a hand-rolled, long filler premium cigar....the experience was on a whole other level than before.
