Before the advent of the Internet, cigar aficionados obtained smokes from their local tobacco or cigar store. These outlets were a common fixture of American towns and cities for several decades. As convenience stores gradually replaced five and dimes, small tobacco retailers also declined in numbers. Convenience stores and gas stations also sold cigarettes and other tobacco-related products, and many of the traditional smoke shops just couldn't compete.

The exception were tobacco shops that sold a good selection of cigars and had a healthy following of loyal clientele. In dealing with cigars, these places also had their own humidors. Although not as common as they used to be, shops that specifically deal in tobacco products and fine cigars can still be found. They still carefully store precious and timeless smokes in their own humidors but the modern humidor is arguably the online one.

The many benefits of buying cigars online makes this the easiest and most convenient way to acquire smokes. While using the Internet to shop for cigars doesn't replace the welcome, heady scents and friendly conversations of an old fashioned smoke shop, the selection is typically better, the prices lower, and the information about each smoke is at the tips of your fingers. You also don't even need to leave the house to search for and buy quality smokes such as the Casa Magna Belicoso Oscuro.
