Blue Collar Dreams: New Bourbon and Cigar Lounge Coming to Bluffton
Nestled in the charming streets of downtown Bluffton, a delightful new destination for bourbon and cigar aficionados is gearing up to open early next year. Named Bourbon MD, this upcoming bar is the brainchild of Joey Mossburg and Nathan Dirig, two locals driven by their shared passion for bourbon and cigars and their desire to create a place for community gatherings.
Bringing Passion to Life on Market Street
Located on Market Street, Bourbon MD promises to be more than just a bar; it’s a cozy lounge with an inviting atmosphere, offering a vast selection of bourbons and cigars. Mossburg, an avid bourbon collector, alongside Dirig, a passionate cigar enthusiast, are creating a space that reflects the burgeoning growth of downtown Bluffton and the community’s spirit of togetherness.
“I moved here from Fort Wayne and fell in love with the sense of community. It’s a town where everyone comes together to socialize. Creating a space for that is what bourbon and cigars are about for us,” Mossburg shared enthusiastically.
Crafting a Community Hub
- Environment: Comfortable lounges with leather seating.
- Selection: A variety of allocated bourbons and rare cigars.
- Inclusive Service: Traditional whiskies, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages with similar flavor profiles.
- Amenities: Ventilation system managing cigar smoke for a pleasant atmosphere.
Mossburg and Dirig are not only focused on the luxury and enjoyment of their offerings but also dedicated to community involvement. Their plans include organizing local events like golf outings and Rivergreenway clean-ups, reinforcing their commitment to the town that embraced them with open arms.
A Warm Welcome Awaited
The reception in Bluffton has been overwhelmingly supportive. Both Mossburg and Dirig emphasize the joy of building a clientele and making new friends, highlighting their mission of giving back to the community.
“This town has made us feel at home. We’ve felt nothing but acceptance since arriving,” Dirig remarked, reflecting on his experience as a newcomer.
The duo is excited to offer a sophisticated yet unpretentious environment where patrons can explore fine bourbons and cigars while enjoying the sense of an upscale experience. Their blue-collar backgrounds and current roles working power lines resonate with their desire to foster a welcoming, down-to-earth yet upscale atmosphere.
Opening with Promise and Purpose
As preparations finalize for Bourbon MD’s opening, anticipation builds among Bluffton residents. The bar is poised to become a unique spot where the love for fine spirits, cigars, and community come together harmoniously.
Bourbon MD offers a promise: a new hub for relaxation, enjoyment, and connection, all wrapped in the warmth of Bluffton’s growing and inclusive community landscape.
