August at Prime Tobacconist was the perfect blend of camaraderie and cigar culture at Milford, Connecticut's cigar lounge. From lively events to new opportunities for our members, the lounge was buzzing with energy all month long. We welcomed cigar lovers for a special evening with Artesano Del Tobacco, kicked off signups for our 2025 fantasy football league, announced the dates for our remaining cigar dinners of the year, and participated in the Fair on the Half Shell. On top of that, more guests than ever have been making Prime their home away from home; whether that means working remotely from the comfort of the lounge, enjoying a midweek smoke with friends, or securing a personal locker to store their collection. It’s been a month that truly showcased what Prime is all about: great cigars, even better company, and a space that feels like yours the moment you walk in.
Artesano Del Tobacco Cut & Light
Earlier this month, we hosted a cut & light featuring Artesano Del Tobacco cigars. Guests enjoyed the highly rated Viva La Vida and El Pulpo cigars while learning more about the artistry and story behind the brand. If you missed this event, stop by Prime Tobacconist to shop the full line of Artesano Del Tobacco!
Fair on the Half Shell
We were honored to be a vendor at this year's Fair on the Half Shell (formerly known as Oysterfest Fair). Prime Tobacconist is proud to be part of the Milford community, and having the opportunity to connect with other cigar aficionados at this festival was one of our top highlights this month!
Fantasy Football League
Prime’s 2025 fantasy football league is officially underway, and the signups flew fast. With less than five spots remaining, now is your chance to join the fun before the season starts! Whether you’re here for the friendly rivalry, bragging rights, or just the perfect lounge seat for game day, this league will it all.

More Remote Work, More Members
This month we saw even more people turning the lounge into their remote office, proving that your workday can, in fact, be both productive and relaxing. Membership and locker signups also climbed, with more guests making Prime their go-to spot for both work and play!
Locker Availability
Speaking of lockers, spaces are limited (only 3 remain!). If you’ve been thinking about securing one for your cigar collection, now is the time before they’re gone.
We couldn’t have imagined a better way to wrap up our first full summer in business. As our cigar community grows, we’re proud to offer experiences that go beyond the smoke, curating one-of-a-kind events, bringing in exciting new arrivals, and creating a space that welcomes both seasoned aficionados and those just beginning their cigar journey. No matter where you are in your cigar story, there’s always something new to discover at Prime. We look forward to welcoming you into the lounge soon, and there’s plenty more on the horizon!
