Karma Cigar Bar was created by cigar devotees for true cigar lovers.
Welcome to Karma Cigar Bar, a destination where passion meets premium cigar culture in the heart of Merrillville, Indiana, just 45 minutes from downtown Chicago. Founded by Dhiren Shah, who moved from India with his family, Karma was born from a deep appreciation for the cigar lifestyle and a vision to create a truly exceptional lounge experience. What began as a humble cigar shop built on a foundation of passion and purpose has, through years of thoughtful growth and a customer-first approach, evolved into Indiana’s largest full-service cigar lounge, offering a seamless fusion of premium cigars, a curated bar, exceptional food, and warm hospitality.
Our Humidor: Our 800-square-foot walk-in humidor is meticulously climate-controlled and showcases more than 1,800 cigar facings displayed across 85+ feet of humidified wall and floor cabinets. Every cigar is stored and presented in ideal conditions to preserve flavor, freshness, and quality.
Featuring the World’s Finest Brands:
Karma proudly features many of the world’s most respected names in premium cigars, including Arturo Fuente, Montecristo, Padron, Cohiba, Ashton, Drew Estate, Gurkha, La Flor Dominicana, Avo, Rocky Patel, Perdomo, Casa Magna, Zino Platinum, La Aurora, and more.
We rotate inventory frequently to feature limited releases, exclusive blends, and rare finds, ensuring every visit brings something new to discover.
