Cigar Aficionado and Whisky Advocates
“Big Smoke meets WhiskyFest”
A triumphant collaboration event hosted by Cigar Aficionado and Whisky Advocate will make for an evening full of the finest cigars and whisky, all in reach of the connoisseur within you at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Tampa. At this exclusive event on April 6, 2024 aficionados from across the globe will gather to revel in the unparalleled selections offered at this showcase.
One can expect to collect and smoke 30 or more unique and fine cigars accompanied by an exciting collection of over 100 whiskies — including single malt and blended Scotch, Irish, bourbon, rye, Tennessee, Japanese, Canadian and craft-distilled whiskies — plus other premium spirits all in one place.
“Cigars and whisky have a natural kinship,” said Marvin R. Shanken, editor and publisher of Cigar Aficionado and Whisky Advocate. “The merging of two of our most popular events allows attendees to smoke and drink some of the finest selections around and creates an experience unlike any other. We look forward to hosting Big Smoke Meets WhiskyFest in Tampa this year. It will be another unforgettable night celebrating the good life.”
This one-of-a-kind experience allows guests the convenience of freely smoking world class cigars within the ballroom, all while enjoying live music, food, and conversation with fellow enthusiasts.
General Admission tickets are available online, with a VIP option for guests wishing to enjoy an extra hour of fun.
A comprehensive list of top cigar makers and distillers participating in the event will be announced at BigSmokeWhiskyFest.com.
