The father and daughter team here are amazing. So friendly and helpful. They have a huge selection and competitive prices. My favorite cigar shop in the Birmingham area.
Reviews
These guys are top notch. Very knowledgeable about their cigars. Are willing and capable to discuss the cigars, their blends, origins, and strengths on a level that would please a seasoned cigar smoker or a first timer . Awesome lounge facilities with big TVs soft drinks. Not to mention the fantastic people that you meet there. It's a great place to go.
While I appreciate most any cigar store/lounge, I have certain expectations: atmosphere, friendliness of staff, variety, quality. I did not visit the lounge, so I cannot speak much to the atmosphere, although there were charming aspects to the store area. The cashier was friendly, but the man who (I believe I heard correctly) was a part owner, did not show much interest in my being there; and no one offered to help me. Though the humidor is small (not much bigger than what I would call a topical walk-in closet), I was surprised at the lack of variety--especially of the brands advertised and carried. There was a lot of empty shelf space. I chose a stick I'd never had before, which turned out to be quite tasty--Highclere Castle Hecho a Mano. During my purchase, I decided to check out their torch/cutter selection. There were three cheap torches (I did purchase one for $12 and it worked well), and three or four cutters--again, surprisingly small assortment. After purchase, I removed the cigar from the wrapper and cut it there at the counter with their table top cutter, when I noticed there was a blemish (hole) in the side of the cigar. I showed it to them, and they replaced it for me. I would only go here again if I had absolutely no other options.
Great local cigar shop with a large variety of popular cigars. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. They can help you find a new favorite cigar or recommend some options if you need help making up your mind. There is plenty of parking and the shop is easy to access. They also have a smoking lounge.
In Birmingham for the afternoon and wanted to check out this shop as it came up first when I searched for cigar shops near me. Upon entering the shop, which was very small, 3 people seated in chairs next to the register with an employee who seemed to have this look upon his face like I had intruded upon a private club. The employee seemed rather disgruntled and immediately gave me the cold shoulder. I introduced myself and mentioned I was from out of town and wanted to check out their selection, instead hopping up from behind his desk to show me around he simply pointed to a door behind me. Said door led to a broom closet with a rather pitiful selection of cigars. I do not recommend visiting this shop, ever.
