I went by Burn today, great selection. Huge variety of Opus and other Fuente. More than I have seen in any B&M, except for Casa Fuente.

On a separate note, I find it hard to believe anyone that lives here in Minnesota buys more than a stick a month at a B&M. Yikes! This is coming from a guy that lives in Washington state and I was still shocked by the tax here. Crazy.

The owner at Burn was great though and there really is a great selection and the sticks are all in great shape. Coffee shop next door which was a nice bonus.
