Traveled across the city to come a chill with a cigar and cocktail with my partner. On entering the humidor I couldn't spot the a gauge to check the humidity but it felt extremely high. I asked the member of staff if they had any Dominican cigars in a churchill vitola. The staff member said yes and handed me a Robusto sized Cohiba. I said no, do you have any Domincan churchill sized cigars ... the reply I received was ... oh, you are looking for a smaller sized cigar. I realised by this point the member of staff had not been trained or had very little training. I picked my own cigar which took a while as out of six sticks, five were extremely soft. (Humidor humidity requires checking). I selected mine from the bottom of a box so it was firm and smoked well.
The bar is lovely and cocktails tasty.
I will not be returning due to my humidor experience which was beyond poor.

A wonderful sanctuary for Cigars, drinks and snacks. On the same premises you also have a splendid craft beer restaurant with a good selection of drinks. The cigar lounge itself is set in a classic way with deep leather furniture and a low-light atmosphere. The staff is splendid and very helpful and attentive. I loved my visit this time as I have several times before! Visit and enjoy 😇

A surprisingly good selection of cigars at very favourable rates. Starting from a cheap 600 baht up to a good 3/4k for a cigar with good aficionados on hand to give you valuable advice. The speakeasy type feel makes a great cigar lounge

A fantastic central Bangkok location. Superb style and ambiance and a must for connoisseurs of Whisky and Cigars. Many other beverages are served here making it a specialist venue in fine beverages.
The decor and furnishings is in a grand style, leather seating, art work walls and chilled out lighting gives the venue a very cool private club feel.
The staff are superb, friendly, polite and extremely well trained in their craft.
A must for someone who wants to take someone to impress.

The furniture and decorations set you up for a great experience. The staff are exact and there is a great range of whiskey to sample. The humidor is limited and very expensive (like all cigar lounges in Bangkok). If you enjoy a whiskey and a cigar, you cannot go wrong at Whisgars.

I've been going to Bangkok and been a whisky reviewer for about ten years, in both cases. I used to go to WHISGARS a lot, but I have stopped. The past several times I have been there, I have ordered nice, expensive whiskies that did not taste right. They wouldn't be dumb enough to water their whisky down—much of what I've had there was no-chill filtration stuff and it would turn cloudy if water were added—but I suspect some bottles are being refilled with something cheaper. It's something I've encountered in any other bar I've ever been to. Can't prove anything. Maybe it was my imagination. But I don't go there anymore.

Spent some time at Whisgars Soi 23 to enjoy a nice Romeo Y Julieta Churchill En Tubo. Very enjoyable especially before my trip back to Singapore. Will be back when I'm back in town.

Hi, may I bring and smoke my own cigar to your place? Thanks. Greg.

Yes, bring your own cigars and if you don't have any they have a very nice selection of cigars that you can purchase there.
