For those looking to enjoy the finer things in life, Buffalo Aficionado is right up your alley. Throughout the course of the year, Aficionado teams up with various local “authorities” that appreciate and disseminate the bespoke lifestyle. Whether it’s a custom-made suit or a hand-rolled cigar, or maybe a locally distilled spirit, there are those who go out of their way to find the best that Buffalo has to offer, while sharing their finds with others along the way.
Most of the times, these types of clubs meet at households or clubs, where coveted corks are popped and tales of adventure unfold. A club might revolve around exotic cars, fencing, or a prized Scotch collection. Often times, these clubs find commonalities amongst themselves. Aficionado is a way for collectors and enthusiasts to extol the virtues of their passions in a celebratory setting, surrounded by local professionals and like-minded aficionados.
