As Cigar Bans Spread Worldwide So Does One Cigar Friendly Website

Author: Chris Spiek

In the United States in recent years, it's been harder and harder to meet up with friends at a bar or restaurant, and relax with a drink and a good cigar.  State after state has passed legislation prohibiting smoking in public buildings, including bars, restaurants (and sometimes even cigar stores).

Unfortunately these laws aren't unique to the United States.  The period between 2003 and 2005 saw most of Canada's providences pass no-smoking legislation.  Even in countries with some of the highest smoking rates such as Germany, smoking bans continue to be passed (and are often highly contested).  A full list of international smoking bans is available on Wikipedia at this address - http://cigarfriend.ly/smokingbans.

This week CigarPlaces.com introduced new features to allow cigar aficionados to easily add international cigar friendly locations to the site, and find cigar bars and cigar friendly restaurants all over the world.  CigarPlaces.com relies on users to add places that they know are cigar friendly to the map, so the introduction of these features is extremely important to the community.

On the "Add Location" page of the site, users will now be able to select the country that the cigar friendly place is in from a dropdown.  The site also features a "World View" which zooms the map of locations out to encompass the entire world.

As the community of cigar lovers that add locations to the site has grown over the years, many new users of the site have been asking for these features to be added.  Cigar lovers always have an affinity to their local haunts; the places that are welcoming to cigar smokers, and they're eager to add the spots to the map for others to enjoy.  Now with the introduction of these features, we can share locations from all around the globe.
