Cigar shops

[al]

Can anyone recommend cigar shops in Puerto Vallarta, prefer the south of the river neighborhood.

I know about the Casa Del Habana on Adama, looking for suggestions on others and any local rollers.

The best place I think is "La bodeguita del medio", and all cuban resturant and an all cuban cigar shop, While your there get some mojitos and some shrimp with the orange sauce.

There are two places in PV that I would recomend, and I went to both. Sorry I can not remember the names, but one is located just over the river on the south side of town. When I mean just over the river I'm not kidding.

The second one (this one will roll a cigar for you while you wait), is located about a block or so up from the Melacon on Corona & Morelos.

Hope that this helps!

I hope that this doesn´t sound too much like a commercial plug, but my neighbor in PV has a popular cigar store on the southside of town. I don´t smoke, but it looks like an interesting place to visit. They have professional cigar rollers on-site to make your cigars to order. Here's some info that I found on the Internet:
