Living in Northern Virginia, I am blessed with several pipe shops within an hour from my residence: 5 Old Virginia Tobacco Companies, the closest of which is 15 minutes away, and holds monthly “ Pipe Nights”two Tobaccology stores, which stock decent blends, Leesburg Pipe and Cigar, and John B. Hayes in Winchester. Also Boswells in only 75 minutes from me.

I spent the first 31 years of my life in Chicago and spent a lot of time at Iwan Ries and now travel annually to Florida and always stop at Low Country Pipe and Cigar in North Myrtle Beach, which I hold is the best of them all.

Low Country would also be on my list.

Al, it’s a great place, it’s around a hour from where I stay and when we go down to myrtle beach I always have to make a stop, if you ever find your self in the Wilmington NC area stop at Davis and Sons and Ansteads if your in the Fayetteville NC area

Bucket list - Iwan Ries in Chicago. Closer to home...Any of the very few GOOD pipe shops left in Florida. The pipe tobacco tax are of 85% in Florida has resulted in the closure of nearly all of the pipe shops in the state. There a very few still left, but most have a poor stock of pipe tobacco.

For me it's a toss up between LJ Peretti or Iwan Reiss, I'm leaning towards the former because of their legendary house blends. There's quite a few others I'd love to visit, Le Civette, JJ Fox, and Peterson come to mind. As for closed one's definitely Kramer's followed by Drucquer and Sons

What's crazy is Florida is super cigar friendly, or at least was
