Welcome to Smoke Inn — Now Carrying West Tampa Cigars!
Cigar lovers, meet your new favorite smoke: West Tampa Cigars, now available at Smoke Inn! While the brand officially launched in 2022, its roots dig much deeper. Founder Rick Rodriguez carries a legacy that started way back in 1953, when his grandparents left Havana and began a family tradition steeped in Cuban cigar culture.

? What’s in the Humidor?
You’re in for a treat—Smoke Inn’s shelves are fully stocked with every core line and a couple of exclusive gems from West Tampa. Whether you’re new to the brand or already a fan, here’s what you can light up:
- West Tampa White: Creamy, smooth, and subtly spicy. Expect notes of cedar, vanilla, and a hint of toasted almond. A perfect morning companion with coffee.
- West Tampa Red: Bold and rich with layers of leather, dark cocoa, and red pepper. This one’s for fans of fuller-bodied experiences.
- West Tampa Black: Earthy and intense with dark espresso, charred oak, and black pepper spice. A nightcap cigar if there ever was one.
And if you’re after something a little more rare…
- Circle of Life (Limited Edition): Mysterious and complex with evolving flavors throughout the smoke. Think spice cabinet meets fine oak barrel.
- Devil Crab (Limited Edition): Unapologetically bold—fiery pepper and deep sweetness wrapped in a dark, alluring wrapper. This one makes a statement.
?? The Story Behind the Brand
Rick Rodriguez isn’t just another name in the cigar world. After decades working with CAO and building a reputation as a master blender, Rick launched West Tampa Tobacco Company to honor his family’s legacy—and bring his own twist to the tradition. Every cigar tells a story, and Rick’s chapters are full of Cuban passion, family heritage, and blending mastery.
