Much better selection and non-NYS pricing, so make sure you bring your wallet !

Thought the part about my wife being with me made it pretty clear my wallet would be there too...
The selection really that much better? I thought the one in Buffalo was great compared to most Rochester shops.

LOL - there's a big antique shop a few doors down where I send the wife while I'm in the shop. And I usually have them get things into a bag quickly in case she shows up before I'm done and out. Better to see a bag than a big pile on the counter.
The Warren shop supplies the Buffalo one with all the cigars so they have it all. Those middle tables are stacked high with sealed boxes as that location handles all the shipping for the website. All that and probably around $2 +/- per STICK less than NYS pricing - it's heavenly !
Plus you might get to meet the famous

(well, if it's Mon-Fri between 11 and 4 because he's practically part time )

We probably have 3 times the inventory of the Depew store.
And, most of the Rochester shops are getting their cigars from us!

Just because you can't get here before 5PM doesn't mean that I'm not busting my hump during regular business hours!

It's a pain in the ass to get here from ANYWHERE! People don't realize just how much time is wasted leaving this county... I can't imagine how much quicker trips in and out would be if we had a half-decent thruway heading E-W and one going N-S.
Everybody was so sure that the railroad would be enough, so not a single thought was put into expanding the road network in this 1/6th of the state. Of course, all the railroads are gone now. Terrible planning, terrible foresight, and by the time the gov't wanted to dump any money on the interstate system, it all went to I-80 with nothing being funneled this way to make a decent connection.

Well why the heck can't they carry a better variety then. Lol. It's mostly the same cigars everywhere with a few unique selections at each. Lately a newer shop called Wise Guys has been getting better stuff in though. First time ive seen LP9 or T52 in a rochester shop.

I went to the Buffalo store for the first time a few weeks ago, really nice place. Like Dustin said so much more boutique selections that just aren't available in Roch or any where around me. I also met Greg, he was rolling his own line at the time and was really nice. We talked for more than a half hour and he answered all of my dumb questions and didnt laugh when I was butchering names and lines of cigars. I had a few things on my list that he said were in PA, said next time if I give him a heads up you usually have quite a bit of traffic between the two stores it would be no problem.

LOL - I knew that would wake you up ! Make that 5:55 PM and I'm promoting the hell out of your shop here so be nice......
(Yeah folks, Andy works an insane amount of hours handling pretty much everything for the shops, the websites and idiots like me.... But when I miss him on a visit i need to give him some grief about it. He's a good egg, but don't ever tell him I said so)

Your best bet is to give me 48 hours notice if you know what you're looking for. I can double check their inventory and transfer whatever you'd like so that it's there for you when you arrive.

I end up looking like a pushover if I don't give you hell when you're giving me hell!

1 tin CAO MX2 Daggers
1 tin Romeo Reserve Pequenos
2 more Fuente Exquisitos Maduro
1 Fuente curly head corona
1 Punch London Club Maduro
1 CAO Cameroon corona
