Festivities kick off at 1pm. No cover charge.

In 2009, David Diamante parlayed his passion and knowledge of cigars into what has become Brooklyn’s most famous cigar lounge.

David Diamante, owner of Diamante's, enjoys one of his own hand-rolled cigars.

Built from the ground up inside a turn of the century brownstone, Diamante’s provides the ultimate environment in which to purchase and enjoy fine tobacco. The lounge boasts an all leather and wood interior, a fireplace, five humidors, private membership lockers, a beautiful vintage chandelier and Diamante’s vintage family photos from the neighborhood. Diamante’s stocks an incredible selection of premium and hand-rolled cigars.

As an avid cigar connoisseur, David traveled to rural areas in Cuba, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Honduras. After learning intimate secrets of the tobacco trade, David created his own line of hand-rolled cigars, simply named “Diamante’s”. Robustos, torpedos, chisels, siglos, panatellas, diademas and toros are just a few of his signature creations that are currently available only at his lounge.

Open to the public 7 days a week, Diamante’s hosts a variety of events including live jazz, private parties, classic boxing night, ladies night and even a black and white movie night. Located in the historic Fort Greene section of Brooklyn, New York, Diamante chose the neighborhood in which his family had roots since 1868. Diamante’s is steps from public transportation and three blocks east of the future home of the Brooklyn Nets, the Barclays Center. In addition, Fort Greene has a multitude of incredible restaurants, a beer garden, theaters, salons, a museum, flea markets, a park and some of the most beautiful tree-lined brownstone laden blocks in all of New York City.

Diamante’s Brooklyn Cigar Lounge is a true Brooklyn experience that is not to be missed!
