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.
