Where to go for good cigars without the bs "high end retail" price tag in BR? Or is this what the cigar market just is now?



You always pay a premium at a cigar shop. But, if you can't wait for an online shipment from cigarsinternational, go to churchills or that cigar shop on perkins (Don Julio's?). I like Churchills personally but never been to don julio's, though my brother in law said the owners there are very helpful and knowledgeable.

I don't care for Don Juan's next to whole foods. The people that work there don't want to help, at least the times i've been. There's always about 5 or 6 guys sitting on the couches smoking and the workers/owners are tending to them the whole time. I also find they don't have that good of a selection.

Online is the way to go, but if not, go churchills or don julio's

I met the guy that owns Don Julio's on Perkins, that's not too far from campus right? This was at the IPCPR trade show in New Orleans, last year. He was trying Marrero Cigars, a brand from Costa Rica. They guy that owns the company Joel Vazquez-Marrero, is a pretty nice guy, and had all the time in the world to talk.

Don Julio's is a start-up or a newer shop, give them a shot.
