Popped in to Boutique 22 on a flying visit to Paris yesterday and wasn't hugely impressed. I don't have anything else in Paris to compare it with, but the humidor was quite small and didn't appear to be very well stocked. They only had one box of RE cigars - the new Quai d'Orsay Secreto Cubano's which I bought. Had a quick look at a few others and noticed that one of the singles on display had an impressive case of 'plume / mold' which strange as it may seem I decided to pass on. Conclusion, if you want to get cigars in Paris try elsewhere.

I would heartily recommend A la Civette - it's near the Louvre. Also not much in the way of REs when I was there, but plenty of LEs etc and a good selection of CC and NC -
Too bad that they didn't have anything good in stock.Comment

Been over 10 years that I have been to Paris. I went to both the Boutique 22 & A la Civette. Back then we were on vacation and I want a box of something good to smoke while we were sight sighting. My first stop was the Boutique 22 and I told them I wanted something with some age. The girl went in back and came out with a box of 98' H.Conie No.1. and I was very happy. I did stop by La Cavette it was ok I did not like that I had to have a guy fallow me into the humidor with a tray and would not let me touch anything.Comment

I was really impressed with le lotus last time I was in Paris. This December I am off to Amiens, not sure if theres a decent tabacs there. Will have to see unless anyone here has been.Comment

I'd wanted to go to le lotus, but time didn't permit on this trip - maybe next time I'm in Paris. My next trip to France is just across to Calais and Dunkerque so will have to see what if anything is on offer up there.Comment
