The Don’s Toasts New
Have the Don raise a glass — for any occasion
A birthday, a retirement, a promotion, an anniversary, a new baby — tell the Don whose moment it is, a few true things about them, and how he should speak: a warm blessing, a gentle ribbing, or the full Godfather roast. He composes the toast in his own words and speaks it aloud in his own voice — then hands you a private link to send however you like. They open it to the lounge itself: the room, the smoke, the music, and the Don raising the glass with their name on his lips. A gift they will open, replay, and keep.
Anyone can receive one — no account needed to open a toast. Composing them is a pleasure of the house, for members.

Smoke With The Don New
Light a real cigar — and the Don smokes it with you
This one isn’t a chat. Light up and the Don sits down and smokes the very same cigar alongside you, in real time, from first light to the final third. Before the flame he identifies her properly — type her name or snap the band, and if she lives two lives (a Cuban Cohiba and a new-world one are not the same smoke) he settles which she is before he says a word about her. Then you go third by third: tap the cigar when you’re ready to move on, and he speaks to where she’s actually going — deepening, sweetening, flattening — like a man in the chair beside you. Every note you call out, he remembers, so session after session he learns how you taste.
Show him anything. Send a photo of the burn and he turns burn doctor — canoeing, tunneling, a runaway burn, he talks you through the fix. Show him the wine list, the whisky shelf or the bar menu and he picks the pour that flatters the cigar in your hand. When you’re done he gives you his closing verdict — a keeper, a sometimes, or a pass — kept in your history. And you can hear every word of it aloud, in the Don’s own voice.

The Cigar Don New
The Don remembers your palate
Tell the Don what you love and what you’ve smoked, and his answers stop being generic. Ask for a recommendation and he reaches for what fits your taste — the wrappers you favor, the strength you reach for on a Friday evening, the sticks already resting in your humidor. The more he knows you, the sharper he gets — like a tobacconist who’s kept your chair warm for years.

Your Humidor New
Build your humidor by typing — or just snap a photo
Logging your collection takes seconds. Type what you have in plain words, or take a picture of the band or the box and let the Don read it and file it for you. Mark what you’ve smoked, what you’ve rated, and what you’re still hunting. Search it, sort it by brand, and know exactly what’s in the cabinet at a glance. And it’s always yours — export it and carry it wherever you go.

The Cigar Don New
Show the Don the wine list — he’ll tell you what to order
Out to dinner or settling in at a cigar bar? Snap a photo of the wine list or the drinks menu and the Don reads it for you. He’ll point you to the glass that suits your taste — or, if you’ve already got something lit, the pour that best complements what you’re smoking. A proper pairing, from a man who knows the leaf and the bottle alike.

The Games Room New
A Capo who reads your smoke — plus quizzes & facts
Meet Sammy “Long Ashes,” the Don’s eager Capo: feed him a few clues and he’ll take a crack at naming what you’re smoking. He’s still earning his stripes, so enjoy stumping him while he learns. Test yourself on the great Cuban marcas, find your next smoke with a few taps, or see if you can name a cigar from the way it’s held. Quick diversions for a slow draw.

The Members’ Lounge New
The Back Room got sharper
Member chat picked up a few tricks: start typing a member’s name and tag them — it shows in gold and gives their phone a quiet tap. Notifications now open straight to the right conversation, you can search the room by member, and a green dot shows you who’s in. Want a quieter corner? Private rooms and direct messages are a tap away.

Anywhere
The Don, in your pocket
Add the lounge to your home screen and it opens like an app — full screen, one tap, no browser in the way. Switch on alerts and you’ll know the moment someone messages you or calls your name. And if you’d rather listen than read, the Don can speak his answers aloud.
The House
The Code
A few plain words on how we carry ourselves in here — respect above all. It’s short, and it’s what keeps the room the kind of place you’ll want to come back to. You’ll find it inside The Back Room.
