Variety Smoke Master and

Great little store. It has a corner shop store feel, but as soon as you walk in, you see a row of closet sized humidors. I went in on a Weds afternoon, and the store did a steady business of cigar sales — mostly cheaper end stuff (Backwoods, Captain Blacks). The store carries a pretty decent collection of cigars, and accessories. (Humidors, several different styles of cutters, bongs (!), and matches and lighters.)
The store owner is pretty friendly and willing to help beginners. I wanted a cigar with a shorter smoke time, and he suggested Cohiba Clubs for the flavour and the shorter smoke time. He isn’t put off by the fact that a woman is asking for cigars and isn’t interested in just selling you a product, and getting you out of the store. I’ve been playing around with the cheaper, mass-​production type of cigars — the Century Sams, the Backwoods, and making the switch to the more «serious» ones is kind of intimidating.
The store is located near Fairview Mall — if you spot the Comfort Inn and the Buns Master bakery right off the side of the road, that’s where you need to head for it. I would buy from this shop again, because it’s not intimidating like walking into an actual tobacconist store.
You can catch the store owner smoking up in front of his store sometimes. It’s good to see an affection for cigars from someone who sells them for a living.
