Scotty's Cigar Club VIP Membership

Everyone can agree that when we buy cigars online, we miss the intimacy and personal connection that comes with shopping at your local cigar lounge. Online cigar shopping offers a slew of benefits that you won’t find at a B&M, but the experience of being greeted by a friendly face every time you walk through the door and being treated like a VIP is difficult to replicate in the online environment.

Many elements of our website are designed to provide an online equivalent to the best parts of shopping at one of our world-class B&M cigar lounges here in Albany. The VIP Membership to Scotty's Cigar Club is the digital version of what it is like to be one of our frequent customers.

We quickly build up a rapport with our loyal regulars. Conversations flow freely around the lounge and our experienced and knowledgeable staff starts to learn about them as an individual, and what in particular they really enjoy about the cigar hobby. Once those regulars have been around for a while, our staff is able to provide them with some nice perks to enhance their smoking experience. Whether it’s a “frequent buyer” wink-and-a-nudge discount on their preferred box, passing along a cigar accessory sporting their favorite brand’s logo, or holding back a stick or two of a limited release blend to make sure they don’t miss out, our staff is always looking for ways to go above and beyond for the folks who fill our lounge with smoke day in and day out.

The VIP Membership program of Scotty’s Cigar Club allows anyone who can’t shop with us in person to receive those VIP benefits while shopping with us online. We took many of the most popular elements of our lounge’s locker rental program and digitized them to provide cigar lovers all over the country with the best way to shop online.

Scotty likes to say that cigars are an affordable luxury, and he wanted to make sure that being a VIP is something a cigar lover can enjoy without breaking the bank. For just $39 per month, you too can become a VIP Member of Scotty's Cigar Club and receive benefits like exclusive access to ultra-rare limited releases, preferred membership pricing, preferred shipping rates, and more! See below for the specifics on the VIP Membership benefits and learn how to join up today!

You read that correctly, the first benefit of being a VIP Member is a $50 credit towards cigar purchases each month! Scotty is determined to make sure you’re getting every penny’s worth of value out of your membership. Immediately upon joining and each subsequent time your membership renews, we give back your $39 along with $11 more on top for you to use to shop our massive inventory each month. These credits are automatically generated and sent via email, meaning that you’ll have your first $50 credit ready to spend mere minutes after you join.

There are two things you should be aware of. The first is that in order to comply with the FDA's rules on free cigars, there must be some money exchanged with each tobacco shipment. To ensure we are abiding by their regulations, these coupons are only valid for up to 80% off any given order. We wish we didn't have to do this one, but the end result isn't too big of a deal and doesn't interfere with the free cigar money you get every month.

The second is that each monthly credit expires 45 days after issue. This should allow you plenty of time to spend them - and even save a couple up to combine for a larger purchase - but each $50 credit is a use-it-or-lose-it coupon that does not carry over indefinitely.

With a luxuroius hand-made product like cigars, sometimes the most interesting and creative blends are only available in small batches. With huge demand from the legions of loyal followers of brands like Arturo Fuente, Liga Privada, Davidoff, and many more for these smokes, it's easy to end up left out in the cold, unable to sample these exclusive stogies that all your Facebook friends seem to be able to buy without a problem.

Since Scotty has such wonderful releationships with the manufacturers who make these, he gets great allotments of nearly every limited edition cigar to hit the market.

Whenever we receive one of these exclusive releases, a special allotment is reserved only for VIP Members of Scotty's Cigar Club. This inventory is seperate from the public area of our website and our B&M lounges.

This allotment is held aside and members are notified via email that the items are in stock and available. While unfortunately our allotments are not large enough to to guarantee that every VIP Member will be able to purchase every limited release, access to our VIP Members allotment will drastically increase your chances of being able to actually make a purchase of some of these ultra-rare items that typically disappear from the public side of our website inventory almost instantly.

The value of a loyal customer goes far beyond squeezing every last dollar out of a sale. When you become a VIP Member of Scotty's Cigar Club, you'll enjoy the discounted pricing that emulates the wink-and-a-nudge discount that long time regulars receive in the lounge. No coupon codes, limited time sales, or other hoops to jump through - once you log in with your VIP Member account, you'll simply see lower prices on the majority of our inventory than are published on our public website.

Regulars who hang out in the lounge all the time pick up various freebies. They might score a cool piece of swag, a sample of a new blend our in-house torcedor Francisco is working on, or just something to taste that a staff member thinks they might enjoy.

As a VIP Member, you'll get the same treatment! Each time you place an order, you'll receive a free gift along with your purchase. Each gift is hand-picked by our expert staff and tailored to your personal preferences based on your order history.
