An absolute Gem of Chestnut Hill. Their tobacco selection is extensive and without a doubt, the best in Philadelphia/Greater Philadelphia area. The owner is also super knowledgable and offers great recommendations. Planning my next trip already :)

Great selection and great service. The owner told us to call first since we aren't from the neighborhood, just because sometimes weather etc keeps him from opening. Will definitely be back.

Bought a gift here and the man behind the counter was very helpful. He was doing inventory and offered up answers to questions that hadn’t occurred to me. I love supporting a shop like this and I’ll be stopping by again.
