Our Story

Cigar Castle's story began in 1988 when Atul Solanki seized the opportunity to purchase the Beverage Castle, a business that would serve as the foundation for his future vision. Over the next decade, he worked tirelessly, saving and planning for expansion. In time, he was able to purchase the building outright, allowing him to take his business to the next level. With a keen eye for growth and a passion for quality, he introduced a cigar store alongside his beverage business, creating a destination for those who appreciated fine cigars and premium spirits.

Determined to offer an unparalleled experience, Atul continued to invest in and refine Cigar Castle. In 2010, he took a bold step forward by merging both aspects of his business and adding a lounge, where guests could enjoy the finest cigars, spirits, and beers in an atmosphere designed for relaxation and camaraderie. Over the years, he has remained committed to innovation, consistently upgrading the lounge to ensure it remains the premier cigar and spirits destination in the area.

Never one to stand still, Atul expanded Cigar Castle even further in 2025 by bringing the experience online. This move made Cigar Castle’s exclusive selection and atmosphere accessible to customers across the United States, allowing cigar aficionados everywhere to enjoy the same level of quality and service that has made Cigar Castle a local institution for decades.
