North texas B&M

Elite by far. I spoke to several reps and also to the owner at Elite. He has a very large humidor filled with a lot more than the usual suspects. For example, last November when Brutus and I walked in to the shop, he had Tatuage Tattoo unbanded and the TAA Exclusive still in stock, where as both sticks (Tattoo banded though) were long gone from any other shops. The owner doesn't sell online, nor does he want to. He just happens to have access to a lot of brands (regular and boutique) and is willing to try almost any new stick that comes to the market. He also is probably one of the few stores that had the Fuente Opus X Lost Cities.

BTW, if you go there, get the hand cut kettle chips topped with Bleu cheese.

He still has Tattoos, but is sadly out of the TAA...

Everything above is correct. Kent has quite a few contacts in the industry, and knows how to use them to get cigars...Great selection...

On top of that, the food that is served by his kitchen is easily the best I have ever eaten at a cigar store, and the prices can't be beat.

Awesome place
