Hey everyone, for the next few weeks I’m going to be staying with my sister, Heather, here in Austin. Today is my first day working at Fumee, and so far she’s had me do some really exciting stuff, like doing her taxes, and dusting! Woohoo?

Until next time,
Nicole

Hey everybody just wanted to share my trip to New Braunfels with my badass family last weekend. We had a great time made even more radical with a couple of Kristoff’s with my brothers.

Below is our press release.

Fumée, Inc. is proud to announce the launch of its newly redesigned e-commerce shop at fumeecigars.com. For the past two years, Fumee has offered an online resource for premium and hard-to-find cigars, reviews, accessories, and make-your-own sample packs – enabling customers to mix and match cigars in the number and brands of their choosing.

As it has done in the past, the site allows customers to pick their “flavor profile”, and see recommended cigars for their particular taste. The accessories section now includes over 300 items, and the cigar selection has grown by dozens of new brands. Going forward, Fumee will focus on offering more full boxes for purchase, as well as single stick and mix-and-match box offerings.

“Our site was sufficient for us when we launched a year and a half ago. However, since then we’ve learned a lot, we’ve grown a lot, and we needed something to reflect the new, more professional Fumee.” says owner Heather Haddad. “We will be updating the site weekly with specials and sampler packs, and hope to become a place where customers can experience new, quality cigars at competitive prices.”

The updates on the website will be helpful to customers in a variety of ways, but most of all the layout is very intuitive and straight-forward. Customers will be able to find their desired cigars and check out with minimal effort. Comparing and searching for products will open up less pages – for instance, all sizes of a particular brand of cigar will be easily accessible on one page. Another helpful addition is that customers will be able to track the mailing of their order by signing into their account on the site.

Fumeecigars.com is the online portion of Fumee Inc, which also includes a cigar lounge in Cedar Park, TX.

Our new BBQ! This was donated by a customer of our, Charles!

He even personalized it with our name:

The only flowers I have kept alive in my whole life. They look really pretty outside of Fumee.

Our Saturday Morning crowd:

In the next few weeks we will be applying for a beer and wine license and we’ll be putting in a patio made of crushed beer bottles. It’s eco-friendly and I think it will look pretty awesome!

We had a long ash contest last week. Here’s my practice cigar (Kristoff Maduro):

And here’s our winner, Abdul.

Working on it…

Pondering it…

Great success!

The winner!

Paul Vick

We had live music for the first time last night at Fumee! It was a big hit! We had a nice night listening to Paul Vick play rock from the 70s and selected country and love songs. I think we’ll try and have live music every night!

Thank you to everyone who came out for the Adrian’s Costa Rican event! We had a great time sampling rum and eating fajitas. Here’s Anthony and I rocking our Adrian’s Cigar shirts:
