There used to be a shop in Clayton Ga., a little east of you. I do not remember the name, but I think it may have closed down.

A little north of you is

Smokey Mountain Cigars
1991 Georgia Road, Franklin, NC
(828) 369-1000

and

Highlands Wine Cellar & Cigar
114 North 4th Street, Highlands, NC
(828) 526-3553

I haven't been to these in a while, so I cannot vouch for them. Sorry.

Enjoy the time with your bride though. You are in some beautiful country. My dad has a place above Lake Burton near Clayton. I am hoping to get back up there soon to do some fishing.

Smokey mountain in franklin is a new one. Very small selection. Nice guys.

Highlands is more typical albeit overpriced(compared to FL). There is also a shop across main street a few stores down that has cigars. Largest selection is definitely at the wine and cigar place.

The one in clayton closed down probably 6 years ago. Used to be next door to a breakfast joint called The Cookie Jar(the co-owner was the banjo player in deliverance).

So it just depends on what is closer to you. That is my update from the last time I Was up there which I think was new years. Heading up next weekend for a few days.

That was the one. I thought it was gone, but I haven't been up there in a couple of years.

Sounds like we have some of the same stomping grounds brother!

Helen GA sounds like it might be close. I have no idea whether they have a B&M, but Helen has a thriving business center, and is very touristy.
