1. Wellesley Terrace Cigar Bar in London

You would expect a city that celebrates all things male to have an excellent cigar bar, and London doesn't disappoint. The popular spot is located within the chic Wellesley Hotel in Knightsbridge near Harrod's and was named among GQ magazine's list of top cigar bars in the world and the best hotel cigar bar in Europe by Forbes magazine. This cigar bar boasts the largest humidor in Europe as well as a comfortable smoking terrace. You can also get a classic cocktail here, a la Bogie and Bacall.

2. Club Macanudo in New York City

Located at E 63rd St. and Park Ave. on New York's Upper East Side atop the Knickerbocker Hotel, the Club Macanudo makes most everyone's list of the world's top cigar bars. Not technically a club (the site is open the public), the Club Macanudo features all of the best smokes, drinks and food the "city that never sleeps" has to offer. The views of Times Square from the club's rooftop indoor/outdoor cigar terrace are sensational. The plush leather couches are almost as enjoyable as the smokes.

3. Le Cubana Cafe in Paris

Paris may be better known for wine, but Parisians know how to enjoy a fine cigar. Nowhere is this more apparent than at Le Cubana Cafe, located in the city's vibrant 6th arrondissement (near Montparnasse.) The combination restaurant, bar and smoking club has a Caribbean flair and looks like it belongs more in Havana than in Europe. There is a slight entrance fee, but the public is welcome.
