Blend and Barrel

Came at someone recommendation and was told it was a great cigar bar. More of a nightclub vibe with a small humidor. Limited cigar selection focused mostly on low end smokes. No luxury brands of cigars. Bar is ok / decent whiskey selection. Good sized lounge area with large seating plus bar seats and high tops.I would not recommend this for someone looking for a high end cigar bar. Might be ok for a nightclub cigar vibe if you like R&B or rap.

Well this was my first trip to this lounge but let me tell you...do not miss a chance to get in there. The place is amazing! Great selection of cigars and an amazing bar and lounge area. After getting to know Jason and Joe through social media they treated me like an old friend the moment I walked in. I will definitely be back often

I mustve driven past this space over 1k times but I finally got a chance to come in! Wow!! Such a great place! They even had wine for me 😁 Im really picky and the bartender listed all the wines (great selections!!) She was wonderful!! I usually see people outside enjoying themselves and I can see why!! Great vibes! Even as a solo female just popping in I received such a warm welcome! I will definitely be back soon!

Great spot right next to the water. Friendly staff! Great bar tenders. Good selection of cigars! Definitely a must try cigar lounge if in the area!

I think I’ve found my forever home. There are some good cigar spots in central Florida, or even Sanford… but this place takes the cake. Having a cigar on the lake while be catered to by tremendous staff like Naomi is something that is hard to put into words. Excellent selection, very adorable membership if you elect to do so which gives you very generous discounts, and the vibes are second to none! Great selection and they can pretty much order anything you want. Definitely a must visit!

This place has everything you need... great cigar selection, great drinks, and awesome bartenders. Sean took great care of our group and he poured me a delicious old fashion. They do it right here. We visited at night but I would imagine it would be nice to sit and smoke a cigar by the lake during the day! They also have different perks and discounts if you are a regular and you purchase your tobacco products from them. I saw they also sold Bulova watches too if you are in the market for one!

Great service, delicious drinks, and quality cigars, it’s all here at Executive in Sanford! Ask for Naomi, Dallas, or Alex for a handmade cocktail! Talk to Kristina or Josh to find the perfect cigar to pair with your drink! (I recommend Jefe Cigars, you can’t go wrong)From first call to last call, Executive has it all! Come down Wed’s for wine night and live Jazz Music with the talented Mr. Curtis, or sit outside and relax with your friends and family!

Had an awesome time! Great selection of cigars, amazing staff, and wonderful drinks! Drew and Corina are really awesome people and they made sure we had a great experience. Definitely a place to frequent!

The atmosphere, location, and excellent service are why this is my new favorite chill spot! When you come here you feel like family. Naomi provides top notch service, pays attention to detail and has an amazing personality!

The name has changed, but the ownership is the same. The selection of cigars and whiskey are both decent, the staff is friendly, and the decor is really nice. I highly recommend it!

Great shop. Selection is mostly different from what youd see in other shops, but they do a great job of telling the stories of each stick. Large selection of whisky, brandy, and congac. Right on the lake so views are incredible, just a great spot, glad I came here to get out of traffic!

Naomi is the best and we have a tradition of photo taking! Love this vibe!

Nice chill place, helpful staff. Want a chill date night for drinks and a cigar? Here is the spot! Tucked away and kinda hidden, but its a hidden gem. Highly recommended

Great cigar selection for any smoker, superb cocktails and service was 5 Star by Mary, very attentive.

We LOVE this cigar lounge. Everything about this place is great: the location, the cigars, the drinks, the ambiance, and the staff. Joe and his wife Lisa, Jason, Josh, and Naomi are the sweetest and most attentive. We can’t recommend this place enough, especially to just relax and enjoy the beautiful view and drinks (and enjoy a good cigar of course). They also host a great Latin night every month, that is always a great time. I can’t say enough good things! 5 stars

We came here for a drink and a cigar. We had 2 old fashioned’s. When we got the bill we were blindsided by a bill of $64.98! Now I don’t have a problem with paying for a good drink, but $64 for 2 basic old fashioned’s is ridiculous!When the waitress Tiffany came to check on us outside I addressed my feelings and concerns with her. Her response was, I’m sorry I should have said something! There was also another guy there saying the same thing about the hidden prices!

Love this place. The view and selection of cigars are great. The best part is the size of the place. You can sit and enjoy a smoke, the game, and/or music without being overwhelmed by the smoke

This is a great shop in downtown Sanford. The décor and atmosphere are great, sophisticated but relaxed. The cigar selection is solid. The drink and beer menu are very deep, and the beverage quality is excellent. They also serve excellent coffee (Italian style).The jewels of this location are the view of Lake Monroe, and the indoor air quality. This lounge has by far the best indoor air filtration for a cigar shop in central Florida. Indeed, this shop passes the wife/GF test. This bar also sports a large outdoor patio area with direct views of the lake. For those cool nights, they have plenty of gas heaters to keep your warm.The service is also excellent. The team at executive is always welcoming and helpful. In short, this is one of the best shops in the region.

One of the best cigar lounges in the area. If you want to sit outside and enjoy the view of the lake, or sit inside and enjoy the atmosphere its a win win.

Good selection of cigars, good selection of drinks. both indoor and outside seating. setup well. very inviting atmosphere. super nice folks. good place.

Super enjoyable place. Husband and i stopped in on a whim and shared a cigar and a couple cocktails one afternoon. Very helpful attendant at the humidor and wonderful bartender both offering helpful suggestions. Had an authentic espresso martini (w real espresso) and a great rum old fashioned for my husband. Another couple got a great looking coffee, so that may be my choice one of these days!

Beautiful spot. Clean and a hidden gem. Will tell many about this place. Logan is the BEST! Knows his stuff! Ask for him

Naomi is the best bartender you could ask for. The atmosphere is perfect and such a great setting to relax and chill. Wouldn’t recommend any cigar lounge or bar over executive cigar. Thanks for the vibes and great attitude towards each customer.

Great Lounge. Very high class. Joe is an amazing owner with a great selection of high end cigars.

Really loved the vibe here and felt welcomed. Logan from NC was top notch and helped me with all my needs. Recommended a great Cigar and had a few drinks. Would gove 5 stars but bourbon selection was ok and could use some improvement. Expresso Martinis were amazing and my wife and I loved them. Will definitely be back.

Great time to relax and just be. Ill be back. Keep an old fashion ready for me.

This is my Go To spot when I want to relax with friends, have a drink and smoke and nice cigar. Theres a very mellow vibe going on here 😉

We were in search of a luxury van to take us around town to celebrate my son’s 21st birthday. Josh showed up on time and gave us a true VIP experience for every part of the evening. The van is beautiful and has a humidor as well a small refrigerator for drinks. The price was very reasonable. We will definitely be looking for ways to put this service to work again and with that we hope that Josh will be able to be there to provide his outstanding service once again. Thanks Exec and Thanks Josh! A night that will forever be remembered! Cheers!

Had a great weekend in Sanford, and the visit here was a highlight. A+ hospitality and friendliness. Chatted up the owners, even gave us a great tour and a free house stogie. Will definitely recommend and return!

A beautiful relaxed lounge with outside seating to see the sunset on Lake Monroe

They have a large variety of quality cigars. This is an actual lounge…. comfortable leather couches, relaxed environment, large screen televisions for sports. The staff is always friendly. I highly recommend.

I have always told you you may not like what comes out of my mouth, but it will always be the truth. I return to this lounge repeatedly, For one reason and 1 reason only. And her name is naomi. This woman not only meets my expectations. She goes above and beyond them. The lounge is absolutely spotless and the variety of cigars liquor and beers that they have here is incredible. So if you find yourself In sanford you must stop at this cigarr and experience the hospitality the community and All the extras that are available to you right here. At the executive cigar shop and lounge.

Much improved in the last 2 yrs. Very nice staff. Good selection of cigars.

Great place. Pleasant atmosphere. Ive been twice in a week. Driving from Ocoee Florida to Sanford, just to relax and chill for a few.

Fantastic experience at Executive Cigar Shop last night! Jason, the manager and staff were 2nd to none. Fine selection, incredible service, could not ask for more.Daniel MontesiOrlando Estate Buyer

Great place to meet friends for social, adult beverages if wanted combined with a gorgeous view of the lake. Time just slips away. The staff are attentive without breathing down your neck.

Many cigars to choose from and they are reasonably well humidified. They have a nice selection of bourbons and scotches. If you sit out front the view of the lake is very nice and they will wait on you out there. You can smoke inside and the place is very clean, including the bathroom.

Always a great time at Executive. The staff is top notch and Sundays are always a fun time.

Perfect place in front of the water to have a nice drink, respectful and knowledgeable staff in regards to cigar with some very good selections.

Very Nice Establishment!! It’s a nice vibe! One of the best cigar places I’ve been in Florida. Also got to try a new cigar and must say Sugarcane Cigars is one of my new favorites. Definitely a must go to place.

Love this upscale cigar shop and lounge! Comfortable seating, friendly people and best of all due to their custom ultra state-of-the-art ventilation system, my clothes dont smell like cigar smoke when I leave!

Just became my new favorite local place to hang. So chill! The view , the people, especially the bartenders! Naomi is awesome 💖

Very welcoming vibe here-Good selection of Cigars-Great view of the Seaside-Great Service-Good BarGreat way to unwind before your flight - this is what I did (Sanford Airport close by).

My wife and we’re looking for a quiet and relaxing place to have a cup of coffee before heading home. Let me just say this the coffee was great the service was great the cigar was great match with the coffee and the overall experience was outstanding. We will be back

Very nice cigar bar. Good selection of cigars and drink options. Nice view of the lake . Plenty of seating inside and outside.

Though there isnt a wide variety of cigars and whisky to choose from, they definitely have some solid selections. And the fact that you can smoke on the patio, while looking out on the water at sunset is a huge bonus. Staff is very friendly.

Had a tobacconist who wasnt there to help find what I was looking for , but the barkeep helped find cigars . all told a very good experience , and they have an excellent selection of premium cigars in a well stocked humidor .

Friendly staff, very welcoming. Grat location and comfortable. Good cigar knowledge and good recommendations for those looking for a particular type of cigar.

Great relaxing atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff will help you find the right cigar for you, then make the perfect drink to sip with your cigar. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Had a great with Nikki and Naomi. Awesome Place

Love this place! Fantastic live music, special events out on the patio with the lake view right there, excellent bourbon and cigar selection… one of my favorite bars ANYWHERE!

Pay attention to your bar tab in thus place. Had two drinks and then looked at my statement later and it was 80 dollars. 40 bucks a pop is a bit extreme for Buffalo Trace.

My brother and I were there for the February ribbon cutting ceremony. Great time, seated outdoors, cigars, and beer. Highly recommend.

Best place in Sanford to have a cigar and drinks. I absolute love the place and the service is amazing!!!! Love Naomi, she is the best!

Executive Cigar is my personal place to hang out, smoke the finest cigars and enjoy the friendly atmosphere of the people of Sanford. My friends and I meet at least twice a month at this Establishment. The service and management are #1 in my book

Had to adjust my review, I went back on Saturday 4/30 and asked for Honey whisky, the bartender Carmen who was not very pleasant, stated that it was a college kid drink. I then proceeded to 2 old fashion drinks and my friend had 2 Tom Collins.$68 for 4 drinks and an unpleasant bartender NO BUENO. Its too expensive and the experience was just not worth the money.

I love love coming here from Melbourne its a refreshing change. Great seating in or outside viewing the water and people watching. Cigar selection could be increased, besides that this is a vibe! Trust 🖤🙏🏾🙌🏾

I was last Friday 09/17/21 the place was empty just on the bar my friend, myself and the singer. We were talking in Spanish and manager tha she’s puertorrican did not like the way that we were speaking Spanish but Mexican slangs and I don’t know if she did not understand but she was upset and she told us that we need to leave the Executive Cigar Shop Ann bar. After that I know why Corona Cigars in LM was crowded and they were really empty. If their place continues on that kind of poor customer service they will be out of business soon.

Second time there. Still the same. Great place. Naomi was great. Check it out is a great venue.

Cool laid back vibe, great view of the lake

Nice cigar lounge in Sanford. Good views of Lake Monroe. The atmosphere inside is very nice as well.

Best place to get an old fashion. Great bartenders and very cool place.

Beautiful environment, varietal cigar selection, and stellar service (Naomi). Strong recommendation!

Great service. Nice view of the lake. Great assortment of cigars. Very relaxing.

Great place. We had a wonderful time at the 2nd annual stogies and cycles. Got to meet Bubba the Love Sponge with his crew and Shannon Burke.

Had A amazing time Jason was a great bartender spoke to him for a while and learned about all the great events they do and even some other events I will deffinally go check out if I lived closer I would be there all the time

Wonderful cigar store right on the lake. Good selection of cigars and alcohol.

This place is amazing. Logan was a huge help and was very professional. I will return again soon!!

My home away from home and proud Boardroom member. One of the best scenic views for cigar enthusiasts over looking Lake Monroe.

The Executive Cigar Bar is really nice and pleasant. We enjoy having Cocktails and Cigars there. We always have a good time there.

Comfortable and amenable atmosphere. Great service and what a view of Lake Monroe!

Best place to chill...so many amenities and a great cigar community. Amazing staff and service and high end amenities available for club membership. Treat yourself.

Great atmosphere. Small but decent selection of cigars. Also really nice arm chairs

Awesome cigar lounge. Ecna and Pam are super sweet and very customer oriented. A great place to hang with some local folks.

Nice, not to crowded or loud, just great for a nice cigar and your favorite cocktail

Great experience Jason is outstanding and I am very glad I came here for my first cigar experience.

Staff are amazing. Drinks are always good and selection of cigars never disappoints

Great spot to hang even if you dont like cigars. Good air filters in the bar and an awesome view on the patio.

Had a blast! Great drinks, sticks and the hosts were most gracious.

Cant say enough about the customer service I received both times I was there this week. Mr. Joe, Mr. James they where kind and welcoming as soon as we opened

Always enjoy going here. The service is always phenomenal. Very low key setting.

Great location on Lake Monroe. Good selection of cigars.
