For these two days we will be celebrating the Masters while enjoying several of his brands including Prensado, Black Market, Tempus, and the New York. Birdie prices from Noon – 6PM each day.

Our February dinner went off without a hitch, unless you call the 80 mile winds and 6 inches of snow a hitch. Canada eh?   Themed “Cigars of the Year”, 35 guests smoked the Prensado Churchill, the Casa Magna Robusto and the Bolivar Royal Corona while dining on calamari, salmon, steak, and crab cakes washing it all down with good scotch, barolos and cabs. Great job Justin and Jason, all your staff were awesome.
