No, flash photography is not allowed in cigar lounges. Flash photography can be disruptive to other patrons and can also damage the cigars themselves. The intense light of a flash has been known to burn delicate wrappers and ruin the flavor of some varieties. Flashes can be startling or even uncomfortable for other guests who may have difficulty adjusting their eyes after the sudden burst of light. For these reasons, most cigar lounges prohibit the use of flash photography on premises.
