The question we get the most in our shop is usually “What’s the best cigar?” We have always believed that the best cigar is the one you like. With that said, I’d like to introduce 2021’s best rated cigar, The Padrón 1964 Anniversary Series, Torpedo Natural. A fantastic Nicaraguan puro, this rich cigar gives off a woody start, growing more complex in flavor as you progress. Cigar Aficionado magazine put it perfectly: “The cigar’s only flaw is that it ends.”

Sun Bear Black Locust has arrived! A blend of Bright and Red Virginia’s, 2014 Basma and 2013 Izmir Orientals, and ethically sourced Black Locust honey. Black Locust honey is highly sought after due to its small yield, in addition to its light color and sweetness, hence this blends namesake. These small batches never last long, so be sure to see us soon!

If you support not just the Briar & the Burley, but local businesses in which families rely on for their livelihood, I urge you to take just a moment of your time and read/look into this. Yes, this will effect the industry in its entirety, but most to***co shops are small family owned and run businesses. I do not exaggerate when I say this will devastate those businesses and their families. You can help us by spreading the word and contacting your representative to fight this. We hope you do. We have always appreciated your patronage, and we would very much like to continue to do so.

The long awaited Fuente Rare Pinks have arrived!Each cigar is a perfecto shape that uses an Ecuadorian wrapper over a mixture of filler blends, including Nicaraguan to***cos from the Fuente farms in Estelí.

For every box sold, Fuente is donating $13 to the American Cancer Society. We doubt these ci**rs will be here long, so come grab a smoke and support a good cause at the same time before they run out!
