I feel it necessary to first state I am writing this review as a pipe smoker. That said my review is slightly biased. I very rarely smoke cigars and cannot knowledgeably give feedback on this subject.
As a pipe smoker I will say first of all, the customer service was wonderful. As soon as I entered I was greeted by the staff who were more than willing to assist me. I immediately gravitated to a wall with a grand selection of MM corn cob pipes. The staff cordially pointed out the locations of pipe fare they had to offer. These were to include new briars as well as meershams I believe. Church wardens and estate pipes were available as well.I then looked over their blended tobaccos, tins as well as bulk.
As to my rating, I would like to have seen a larger selection of tinned blends. The selection of Peterson blends was fairly extensive however C&D and G.L. Pease were nowhere to be found.
My main purpose for stopping in was to see what was available in new briars. I was hoping to find something in the 40 to 80 dollar range. If one was present it was not noticed. I did however purchase a bulk blend at the recommendation of a staff member which I have been enjoying.(Revolution) I was really hoping to lay hands on a new briar and maybe see some hard to come by tinned blends, maybe have a look at a blending kit.
To sum up, if you are a cigar smoker I would say stop in and enjoy a smoke in the lounge. I am sure the staff will be happy to accommodate you. If you would like to try an interesting bulk blend as well I would say pop in and...

Read moreI rated this initially as a 4 star. I got a very nice reply asking if there were any suggestions for anything that might be missing from my experience there. Thinking of my experience I have to say there was nothing missing. (One thing would have made it nicer: a bourbon and water. But this is beyond their control.) My experience: I was warmly greeted by an engaging young man. Very enjoyable conversation. I asked for a CAO Brasilia. He had one. He set me up and I had a beautiful smoke. The surroundings were interesting. An old downtown building with high ceilings. A little jazz music floating around. Nice ventilation; probably the only somewhat negative is that my smoke, once exhaled, floated away almost too cleanly! I like it to linger just a bit. All in all a great place and I can't...
