About the Cigar Society of Chicago
ONE OF THE OLDEST AND
greatest traditions of the city clubs of Chicago is the discussion of
intellectual, social, legal, artistic, historical, scientific, musical,
theatrical, and philosophical issues in the company of educated,
bright, and appropriately provocative individuals, all under the
beneficent influence of substantial amounts of tobacco and
spirits. The Cigar Society of Chicago embraces
this tradition and extends it with its Informal Smokers, University
Series lectures, and Cigar Society Dinners, in which
cigars, and from time to time pipes and cigarettes, appear as an
important component of our version of the classical symposium.
To be included in the Cigar Society's mailing list, write to the
Secretary at CigarSociety@logicophilosophicus.org.
