2024 marks the 10th anniversary of Tony Ghaffari’s ownership of Your Cigar Den, a cornerstone of Downtown State College. Since taking ownership in 2014, Ghaffari has transformed the business into a haven for premium cigars, plush lounges, and high-quality tobacco products and accessories. Ghaffari's deep-rooted Cuban heritage fostered his early connection to cigars, and after moving to State College 25 years ago, he became a regular at Your Cigar Den. His passion for cigars and the community atmosphere led him to purchase the business.

Under Ghaffari’s leadership, Your Cigar Den has flourished. With over 400 cigars, 40 types of pipe tobacco, and a wide range of accessories, the shop has evolved into a vibrant community hub. It hosts events like the popular Havana Fest, drawing over 200 attendees from across states, and the annual 12 Days of Christmas celebration, offering food, music, and cigars.

Looking ahead, Ghaffari plans to further enhance the customer experience with a monthly mail-order box, curbside pickup, and a growing media presence. With a second thriving location, Your Cigar Den remains the go-to spot for premium cigars, rich conversation, and a welcoming community.
