Welcome to The Empire Exchange
Where connection becomes culture.
Within the walls of Empire Social Lounge, conversation flows as freely as the smoke from a well-lit cigar. Here, friendships are forged over shared pours, traditions are passed between generations, and every flame tells a story.
The Empire Exchange is where those stories live on — our official digital publication dedicated to the art of connection. Each week, we’ll take you deeper into the culture that defines the Empire experience: from the humidor to the bar, from the makers behind the brands to the members who bring them to life.
This isn’t just a blog. It’s a curated journal of craft, culture, and camaraderie — designed for those who appreciate the ritual behind every pour, the story behind every cigar, and the people who make each night at Empire unforgettable.
You’ll find:
Behind-the-Bar features highlighting the rare spirits and cocktails that define our lounges.
Humidor stories exploring the heritage and craftsmanship of our favorite cigars.
Member spotlights and events celebrating the Empire community — the conversations, friendships, and shared experiences that make this place more than a lounge.
Whether you’re a seasoned aficionado or simply curious about the culture, The Empire Exchange invites you to slow down, savor, and connect.
Pour a drink. Light up. And join the exchange.
Subscribe to receive new stories each week — or better yet, visit one of our lounges in Brickell or Las Olas to experience the full atmosphere in person. Because at Empire, connection isn’t something we talk about.
