IN THE FORGOTTEN HOURS, where shadows danced and moonlight died, the Order of the Crimson Veil distilled the essence of eternal night. Their legacy remains, a whispered promise, in the dust they left behind...

Some say that on certain nights, when the moon hangs low in the sky, the wind carries the whispers of the Order, beckoning those who would unlock the secrets of the Vampire Dust.

The cold temperatures might be here but it's always warm here in our lounge!

The best way to beat the weather is to invest in a yearly locker rental. Locker rentals are an awesome investment in cigar community and a great way to support local business.

For only $500 a year, this grants you:

- 10% discount on everything in the store every time you come in (20% off boxes of 20 ci**rs).
- Discount can be used at both ICC locations (Ames & West Des Moines).
- Exclusive access to event discounts when available
- A reserved, humidified storage space to hold your surplus of ci**rs you don't want to keep at home to smoke conveniently at the lounge.
- Renewal price does not increase ever. (For example, you paid $500 this year, you renew at $500 next year).

Don't want to pay $500? You can also split your locker with a friend as well and you both get the discount for a year!

Stop in and rent a locker today! 🔐
