    Default Local Cigars

    my tobacco shop has some cigars that are rolled by this guy that lives a few hours away. is this akward. they told me that he has tobacco shipped to him from around the world and sells to them exclusivly. i wouldnt trust their word on quality of a cigar because they all look cracked out. its a bong shop too. does anybody else know of local rollers. and is it common.

    Default A BONG shop too????

    Hmmmm......there's this "smoke shop" in NH called "Indian Trading Post" or something like that. They have a back room full of various paraphernalia. A large inventory of hand blown glass bongs. Or at least they did when I first and last set foot in their shop a few years ago and don't get me wrong. I firmly believe that one should be able to smoke pretty well much anything they want to

    But their walk in humidor is constructed of WHITE cedar NOT Spanish cedar (a serious no-no) and is closed off from the store by white aluminum framed sliding glass patio doors. Not really a bad use of the doors but it looks tacky.

    I wouldn't buy a White Owl from this place. Not that I'd even buy a White Owl (sorry George B). I would however buy a bong from this place since they looked really nice although expensive or I would buy cigarettes from this place or a soda or a magazine but I don't smoke weed anymore nor do I smoke cigarettes or drink much soda and I have subscriptions for magazines.

    Their other products (than cigars) is probably how they survive seeing that Two Guys Smoke Shop is right down the street from them. The biggest shop in these here parts.

    Go with your gut feeling on this. Find a better shop. For cigars anyway.

    My local Tinderbox carries "Savannah Bulldogs" nice looking, well constructed cigars... still need to get the guts to try em... I'm afraid of having to talk bad about the only local cigar we got here...

    their walkin humidor is great. I think there is only one guy there that knows anything about cigars though. the rest are quite fowl. they have a large, diverse selection. i dont think there are any other shops around here worth a visit. djs is a large chain around here and i have been to every one but this is the nicest. i am going to try one of the locals this weekend.

    i need a cigar shop in my backyard.

    It's fairly common in some of the larger cities in Florida. Tampa, Miami, Orlando, etc. Most of these areas are traditional Cigar producing communities, or have a large population of Cuban Americans.

    My shop has cigars made just for them. They are a little rough looking but they are good. I trying to get a box deal from them but the owner isn't around much and the lady that works there keeps telling me to talk to the owner. Try the house blend.

    Hey jdavis,
    What's the worst that can happen you smoke a junk stick and you move on. so long as you didn't pay much for the cigar.

    I have seen some real "Local" Rollers here in Jersey. There is this one Cuban guy who has had his own shop for years. He only sells his cigars and nothing else. sells few accesories but has been in businees for over 25 years.

    Try the 'Gar worst case you get stoned on a Blunt sold as a cigar.
    The only thing missing from my life is money and more Cigars.
