Welcome to the

Capitol Community

What we actually are

We sell cigars. But ask anyone who works here what business we're in and you'll get a different answer: we run a room, and the humidor is the reason to have one. The chairs are comfortable because you're going to be in one for three hours, and the selection runs deep because our guests have particular tastes.

A lot of people walk in the first time on their own. You pick something out, you find a seat, and by the time you leave, someone has introduced themselves. That's been the way of it for thirty years, and it's the only thing on this site we'd call a promise.


Two rooms

Bethesda

The original. 4916 Del Ray Avenue — a community that's been accumulating for three decades, in a room refined around them.

Washington, DC

Opening soon. Larger, two floors, built from a blank slate around the same idea: there's a chair for you.
