Ember to Ash, the newest cigar lounge in Johnston, is everything you expect (and want) from a momentary escape from the world. Think of soft comfortable chairs that you can just sink into and relax for a while. A moody space that smells like leather and well-seasoned wood, but also of the familiar and nostalgic aroma of cigars. Two lounges, one for “members only” and the other open to everyone and staffed with a knowledgeable team of “cigar aficionados”. A full bar where you can enjoy a broad selection of fine liquors and other beverages. And finally, look for the humidor where you can find the most popular brands of cigars as well as some new “up-and-comers”.
Ember to Ash officially opened its doors to a warm reception early this April. It sits in an off-beat plaza on Greenville Avenue, close to where it intersects Killingly Street. Though it is only recently open to the public Ember to Ash has been a dream in the making for a long time. Step by step, this cigar bar was transformed into the welcoming and laidback space it is today. Attention was paid to every detail. The lighting. The furniture. The décor. The selection of cigars and libations. The long bar with its brass foot railing. The hand-selected staff. Every detail.
Today, visitors to this inviting cigar lounge will find everything they need to relax for a lingering smoke, or for a reoccurring visit. Customers may sit for as long as they wish but are simply asked to purchase one cigar from the humidor’s ever-growing inventory. Many longtime cigar enthusiasts will recognize the brands Kristoff, Estaban Carreras, Perdomo, Drew Estate, Rocky Patel, and more. Producers of the highest quality cigars from across the Dominican Republic, Honduras and Nicaragua are represented here.
Many may ask, how do the memberships work? Once you become a member, you have exclusive access to the private, “member’s only” lounge as well as to special discounts. For “Individual Members” who pay the annual fee of $150, they get 5% off every purchase. For $300, members get access to the lounge and 12% off all purchases as well as a cigar locker. If you have a buddy who you want to share a locker with, you pay $400/yr. For frequent cigar fans, these memberships pay themselves back in no time!
There will also be upcoming events held at Ember to Ash, including one on May 17th. when a representative from Kristoff cigars will be at the lounge. The event runs from 3:00pm to 11:00pm with the rep on-site from 1:00pm to 8:00pm. Come for a smoke. Bring your friends.
