Wanted to add to your question....what time will be best for this? Early Afternoon (3:00 to 5:00)? Considering the drive for some of us, an early afternoon herf would give us more time, plus allow us to make it home at a reasonable hour....just a thought.....
That sounds like a good time spot to me. Now I'm getting excited. Hopefully my wife will be ok with it, don't really want to tell her to bad but I may have to. I'll know more in a couple days but I don't see no problem.
So is Saturday Feb 11 @ 3:00 PM at Jake's in Lexington good for everyone? Post and let us know if this works.
I was thinking the same thing (early afternoon). 3:00 is good for me. I believe he opens up at 2:00 and stays open until late evening.
You can bring your own cigar, but there's a $10.00 minimum. His humidor is usually well stocked, but a bit pricey, which is understandable. The guy has to make some money in order to keep the doors open. If you pick up a cigar hand have a drink, you'l be around $15.00. The drinks cost less than the cigars. There's a few resturants (Red Robin, Panera Bread, a pizza place, I think, a Cracker Barrel, and maybe a couple more) in Brannon Crossing, so you could pick up something to eat on your way out, or show up early and eat then.

I suddenly feel that I may be sick on the 11th... "Sorry, boss man, not feeling too good. Think I'm gonna take the day off. Cough, hack, spit..."
Well crap no sooner does my wife(bless her heart) tell me she thinks it's a great idea for me to hook up with you all in Lexington, that my boss tells me they are sending me home 2 weeks early. So now I'm back to I don't know if I'll be there it all depends on how long they keep me off. At least I'm salary so they got to keep paying me.
Let's etch this in stone.
Saturday Feb 11 @ 3:00 PM at Jake's in Lexington.
You may bring in your own smokes but there is a $10 or 2 drink minimum.
You may bring in food from other restaurants.
Live entertainment starts at 9:00 PM (usually an acoustic set)
I spoke with Carmen from Jake's and she recommended a reservation. Give me a count on how many are definitely coming and I'll make the reservation.
Also remember this won't be the last one maybe the next stop could be Cincy. I'm not opposed to visiting other cities to meet with my (Insert booming reverb vocal) BROTHERS OF THE LEAF.

I'm in.
I work in Lexington, and may well be heading over there this weekend. I'd be happy to make the reservation, but we ought to give them some kind of indication how many will be there.

Hey JDH It looks like we will have 4 or so in our group. Do you still want to reserve a spot for us on the 11th? If you can't let me know and I'll get it.
Looks like that makes 5 -7. Yea, I' go make the reservations this afternoon. I think they want reservations is because there's a UK basketball game on that day, but it won't start unitl 9:00 pm, so we should be gone by the time it starts.
You guys have fun, I'll be all bummed come the 11th. But if by chance I'm still home I'm gonna come down. I'll post here if I can make it a couple days before.
Keep this on the table. A Cincinnati herf would be fun (even for us lurkers)
Is there a cigar bar in Newport...the Party Source? My neice bought me some cigars at Bells House of Tobacco in Cinci. I've never been there, but they might have a lounge.

Party source has a great walk in humidor and some good prices for a B&M, but no smoking area inside. There is a place called Strauss downtown that has a small smoking area, but probably not great for a meetup. Never heard of bells. Have to look it up.

Ocah zocha mentioned a place in Newport called the Beer Cellar.

Yea, I seem to remember him saying something about that too...could be a definate possibility.
They host a herf every Tuesday that is run by the party source. The rest of the time it's a bar/restaurant. I don't know what their policy is on cigars during normal hours. Might be a good spot to check into though.

Right down the street from party source is the BEER CELLAR. They don't have a humidor, but it's pretty big and they have something like 150 or 200 micros on tap and they're cigar friendly. Sits right on the river. They have an event every Tuesday night that the Party Source hosts. I am definitely in if it's there, I am about 15 minutes away

Sounds like the perfect excuse to take a tuesday off. We'll do this one next. Too bad you can't make it down to Jakes on the 11th, but Newport isn't that far away, and I've heard the Party Source has some nice events. Looking forward to it.
