Our Story Old Cigar Warehouse

Built in 1882 and originally used as a warehouse to store cotton and cigars, the Old Cigar Warehouse has had a rich life as the home of a grocery store distribution center, a gospel choir music hall, and even a rock-climbing gym. In 2013, our owner found the building that had been left vacant for over a decade. After a careful and detailed restoration, the building is now one of the most iconic and historic landmarks in Greenville, South Carolina. Today, our story is one of hosting over 150 each year, including weddings, corporate events, and socials. We are proud to provide an authentic yet unique atmosphere that guests will remember for decades to come. ​
High Spirits Hospitality
The Old Cigar Warehouse is one of the first companies founded under High Spirits Hospitality, one of Greenville's most recognizable event hospitality companies. Lead by CEO Tammy Johnson, High Spirits Hospitality owns and operates Liquid Catering, The Old Cigar Warehouse, Bravo1 Protection, High Spirits Events, and Topside Pool Club. We started out as a small bartending company working out of Tammy's garage, and have grown into a sustainable business with 30 full-time employees and over 100 part-time employees. All of our brands are unique and serve a different purpose, but we operate all of them with the vision of providing exceptional, hospitality-driven service for each and every guest and client we encounter.
