Lianos Dos Palmas Handmade Cigars — Local services in Charleston

Was in Charleston for the annual Wine and Food Festival. Stopped in the little shop to watch two people hand rolling cigars. They only sell their own cigars. A mildish Ecuador and a medium to full bodied Maduro. The dried leaves in the shop smelled really good. I felt like I was taking a chance buying a couple dozen to take home as gifts as I did not have time to enjoy one in the shop. The cigars are moderately priced at around 6 to $10 depending on the size of the cigar. I'm smoking a moderate torpedo right now and I have to say this cigar excellent. Beautiful even burn, fantastic flavor and just a beautiful dark wrapper. These folks know what they are doing. They have picked some really good tobaccos and the construction is as perfect as I have had in any brand name cigar. In a couple months I will try online ordering to make sure I keep some of these Carolina made cigars...

These guys are the BEST! Had my first stick while on a quick trip to check out Charleston. As others have written before me, I stopped by and watch two people hand rolling cigars. I too was not sure about non-brand name cigars, but thought, I've bought bad brand names before. I purchased two Connecticut Robusto and I was totally blown away. Great taste, good draw and wonderful flavor. I have ordered a bundle online. Prices for a bundle are very reasonable. Very professional when I called to place an order. Cigars arrived two days later, as fresh as the ones I bought in the store. Great experience and would highly recommend LDP. I'll be refilling my humidor shortly after I enjoy these...

I took my family to this location as a finale to the wonderful day we spent in Charleston but we were met by an unfriendly and unwelcoming staff. One of the draws to this location was to see the hand rolling in front of us. There is a sign up that said something along the lines of 'please ask to take a picture not everyone enjoys having their picture taken.' With that in mind, my cousin asked is she could take a picture and she was told no by a very snarky woman who reiterated what the sign said. You can imagine the rest of the encounter... Just a suggestion but the sign should probably read "No pictures please". Uncomfortable experience we...
