Once a retailer is known in the local cigar community as not keeping up with the changing cigar world that retailer will have a hard time convincing them to come back. Such is the case with me and the local Tinder Boxes. Yesterday was my last stop there. I have a few good local shops that actually know what they carry and why.

I too have asked about Tatuaje and been greeted with a snarl about never having heard of them and they must not be any good. The last time that happened I told them they could keep eating their Twinkies while I head to another store for some Swiss chocolate. The look on their faces was priceless.

I guess if they don't care and can make a living serving smokers who don't care, fine with me. I'll stick to the local cigar stores owned by people who actually smoke cigars.
