I was on a job there a few months back and paid a visit to the Country Squire,
http://www.thecountrysquireonline.com/contact-us/
It's a fairly small shop, but quite nice with leather armchairs for lounging.
Not much of a tin selection when I was there, but they did have a variety of
bulk house blends. Pretty nice pipe selection, a few Castellos, a couple of
really nice Castlefords and others too, priced very reasonably.
The proprietor was a super nice guy named Jon.

Stopped by. They blend their own tobacco and have some great house blends. The building is quaint but has seating for a good number of guys. They have been open for over 40 years, some of the blends are original and haven't changed since they opened. Also loved the brick floor, and nice wall of pipes. It was refreshing to walk into a tobacconist and not have them 90% cigar. It's the other way around here 90% pipes.
I walked in and was greeted by Jon. The owner is the daughter of one of the original brothers who started the place but Jon seems to be the primary guy there. Very knowledgeable.
Used to be owned by a nice older lady that had started the shop with her husband in the late 60s, early 70s. When I worked for Savinelli (about 5 years ago) she was still working the store with help from her daughter. Nice lady.
Damn dude, you got there quick!
Cool!
It's a nice laidback joint ain't it?
I was hoping to find old dusty vintage tins because I had read they'd been around for a while, but a flood happened or something at some time I was told. I see they still have that square shank Castleford I was googoo for, but I was pretty broke, no pay until after the gig was done and couldn't spare much anyway, I had fun there, we went to a Braves game on a special cheap beer night at the stadium and got pretty blitzed!
