| - I think this place is great. I smoke a pipe, so I found it particularly attractive. They have a great selection of pipe tobacco blends, and a good cigar selection. I used to live in Charlotte, I've moved to San Diego now, but I still order their McCranies's tobacco blends. I recommend the McArris blend, it is an exceptional. The atmosphere of the shop is authentic, and comfortable. They experience is all that is manly. When you walk in you are met by the smell of fine tobaccos and hard wood. They have a beautiful array of pipes. The service is great!
Pipe smoking,as I have learned it, is almost an art form. It can have its difficulties, like keeping the pipe lit, packing the tobacco properly, and how to avoid tongue-bite. Many of the little things that make pipe smoking less pleasurable can be fixed if you learn to do it right.
A year ago, when I went to McCranies's to buy my first pipe I asked the guy behind the counter to for a few pointers on how to smoke a pipe. He helped me out, and solved all the problems I had had. I find it much easier to smoke a pipe now, and it has helped me develop a comfortable method of smoking. I highly recommend this place!
Also, check out Sir Edmond Halley's pub right near by.
