The optimum environment for cigar smoking…
… is all about enhancing the senses — taste, smell, sound, sight, even touch — while eliminating distractions. Here's how La Arca Mobile Cigar Lounge measures up:
ü Climate & Temperature
Ideal Range: 65–72°F (18–22°C). Just cool enough to keep you comfortable without chilling the cigar’s burn.
Humidity: Moderate — not too dry, or you’ll dry out the cigar; not too humid, or the burn will go uneven
ü Ventilation
Indoors, quiet air filtration, a high-quality smoke extraction system. Keeps the air clean without killing the vibe.
ü Seating & Posture
Deep, supportive leather armchairs, ideally with armrests for your drink and ashtray.
Ergonomic but relaxed posture encourages a slow, mindful smoke.
ü Soundscape
Low ambient music — jazz, blues, or classic instrumental.
ü Lighting
Soft, warm lighting. Overhead Edison bulbs. You want to see the cigar but not feel interrogated.
No harsh fluorescents.
ü Aromatic Harmony
No competing scents. No overpowering colognes, flowers, or cooking smells.
Cedar wood, leather, or aged books are welcome — they complement premium cigar’s aroma.
ü Accessories & Extras
Stable ashtray, a good cutter, torch lighter, and ideally a side table.
A drink to match, like an authentic Cuban espresso (cafecito).
Optional: a cigar journal to take notes if you’re smoking something new.
