Burlington On Whyte — Local services in Edmonton

The aroma upon entering this shop is worthy of five stars on it's own. You'll understand what fine tobacco has to offer your nose. You may be greeted rather snobbish by the owner or his staff on hand, do not be put off. This is an old world business and old world manors apply. Arrogant people smoke good tobacco as do hard working folk. The uptick in hard working folk rearing arrogant young people is another matter but does play into why you get tested at a place like this.

He raised his voice a little, looked at me like I had a tree growing out of my head and said, “I don’t understand the question”. So I asked the same question again, and he raised his voice again and said, “its illegal and you can go to jail”. Anyway I will not go there anymore and I inquired at the CBSA and they were more then helpful in giving me the rundown on the prices involved, and it was a much calmer tone then the owner of the Cigar store had. Guess he should lighten up a little, guess I’ll find...

i went in today to buy my first pipe. i do not know much about pipes but the staff there were quick to help and full of knowledge. a gentleman who's name that has escaped me, helped me pick out a good starter pipe and suggested the style that would best suit my needs. another gentleman named Aaron helped me pick out a few tobaccos and get me set up with a the essential tools. he even had the time to sit me down and show me how to pack, clean, light and smoke a pipe. i found the staff very helpful and friendly. i will definatly be coming back and telling my friends about this place. i get the sense that if you don't walk in there pretending to know everything and acting like a big shot they will be more than...
