I'm from California and was visiting friends in Danbury when I decided to stock up on a few cigars…read more This shop looked right--and it absolutely was. Their large humidor is impressively stocked with a wide variety of brands, and I was able to find several I had read about and wanted to try. The young lady behind the counter was very friendly, courteous, and offered help with my selections. Prices were reasonable (especially compared to California), which was the icing on the cake. When I got home and lit one up, it was perfectly humidified and burned evenly. I highly recommend this clean, well-stocked cigar shop. I'll definitely be returning whenever I'm back in my hometown of Danbury. --Mike Ross

Definitely not snooty or elitist like another nearby store. I'll go the extra mile from here on out. SHS will recommend their staff picks if you are feeling adventurous. I will most certainly be back next time I get paid, boyeeeee. Now all that aside, I'm surprised there's not more reviews for this spot. IN FACT, there's one super-legit review from a guy named Johnny A that's swept under the Yelp rug. WTF Yelp, how do you decide what makes the cut and what doesn't?

I had a horrible experience here on my recent visit and will not be returning…read more The first thing I noticed when I walked in was that the entire warehouse feels like a fire hazard. There is far too much inventory crammed into the space, stacked in a way that looks unsafe. That immediately stood out. I had been here once before about three years ago, and at that time the owner was pleasant. Unfortunately, this visit was completely different. I asked for The Judge by My Father, one of my favorite cigars. As the owner brought it to the counter, I politely asked to hold it. I very gently squeezed the cigar to check for freshness, which is common practice in cigar culture. Instead of explaining his policy or engaging in conversation, he snatched it out of my hand and snapped, "We don't do that here." I explained I was only checking if it was fresh, but he became defensive and confrontational. At the counter, he made a comment along the lines of "we don't do that s*** here," and implied that because he has so much inventory, his cigars couldn't possibly be stale. My perspective is the opposite, if you're sitting on that much product, freshness isn't guaranteed. Large amounts of inventory don't necessarily mean high turnover. Rather than using that moment to educate me as a customer, he chose to escalate the situation. He stared at me for about 20 seconds as if we were in some kind of standoff. I told him to just cash me out. Then he asked for my ID, made a sarcastic remark, and processed the sale. To make matters worse, I watched him engage the couple before me and offer them his loyalty "stamp program." He never offered it to me, which only reinforced the poor treatment I received. The bottom line is that cigars are about more than the product, they're about people, community, and the experience. You can have the best cigars in the world, but if you don't treat customers with respect, the business won't thrive. Owners who operate with this kind of arrogance eventually see their shops close down or pass away with them, because the next generation doesn't want to inherit that type of reputation. I spend roughly $1,000 a month on cigars. I'm glad I found out now that this is not the kind of place I'd want to be a regular customer at. In the end, he got his $14 for that cigar, but he lost any future business from me. Unless there's new management or a dramatic change in customer service, I will not be back.

I learned of this brick and mortar small business from an online shopping pipe smokers forum. I…read moretook the 40 minute drive and arrived at the shop in Danbury, CT to check out his pipes and tobacco selection. What a great experience!!! The owner warmly greeted me and he took the time to show me his items for sale - I ended finding a very rare sought after a Peterson Christmas pipe from 2014 !!! Simply amazing! I was super excited!! The price of 139$ was WELL below what he could have sold it on eBay for . Definitely going to treasure this. He also carried nice selection of curated tinned pipe tobacco. His prices were reasonable ! I could have easily spent hours in there with the friendly staff checking out the selection. I bought the pipe, several tins and accessories- I am 100% going to make the trip a few times a month to patronize this shop. It's sad that shops and tobacconist like this are rare these days ! I can't wait to go back ! Thank you JP

Well last week I bought my usual and when I opened the tin the tobacco was bad, smelled like ammonia and fermented. I called the shop and went in to exchange it, at first he said he couldn't smell anything wrong, the other guy looked and said yes it was bad so we exchanged the cans but the first guy said if it happened again he would not honor an exchange. What?!!!! Now to begin with I don't think this thing happens often. it never happened to me in all these yrs but if I sell something and it's rotten i would always make good to my customer. even the guy working with him was kinda surprised. well you lost a loyal customer.

It seems like 4:5 cigars that I buy from there are wrapped way too tightly. Either that or they are…read morenot properly humidified. I can't figure it out but it surely must be the latter. There's just no way that so many cigars can be improperly rolled. After a few draws they get a hard cap on them that no amount of struggling with a lighter will get rid of. Of course, no one accepts cigars as a return when it's so easy to say, "it's the way you smoke them." Really? I am tired of wasting money here and will not be going back to them any time soon.
