  • First the good news. For a small neighborhood store it has a very nice selection and knowledgeable owners that can offer decent recommendations. The price point is MSRP, with many cigars under $10 by design. I was lured here by an email blast (unsure how I got on their list, might have signed up at some point?) but responded to their Rocky Patel event that featured a couple of new cigars; and I invited a few friends to join me. Always interested in finding new cigar stores with smoking capability. Now the bad news. This place is a little hole in the wall with poor unlit signage. If you didn't know it was there you would drive right by it and trust me I did twice. The first time I chalked it up to my car GPS being wrong but then I got directions on my iPhone I got the same results. When I drove past it Both devices routed me around the back where the only obvious business was a tattoo parlor. So making my way back out front on the main road I almost got rear ended because I was going so slow trying to figure out where this place was. I guess I wasn't alone because when a couple of my friends showed up they had exactly the same experience. Making my way inside I was overwhelmed by a blast of cigar smoke that would've choked a fireman. The store is small and narrow with low ceilings and the ventilation system is totally inadequate for even a couple of smokers; forget it for the dozen or so that were in attendance. Might as well have been off. At that point I actually considered turning around and leaving had I not been stopped by the store owner who greeted me warmly and invited me in. Besides I was waiting for my friends. But we wound up staying and making the most of it. Besides one of the owners that looked like Santa Claus was very engaging and interesting to talk to. While I wouldn't go back here for another event I wouldn't disqualify it to stop and pick up a few cigars if I happen to be in the neighborhood which is unlikely because this is about a 25 minute drive from my house.
