Wow, I heard on the news here in Knoxville this evening that Knoxville Cigar Company is closing its store in the Old City area of Knoxville.
It wasn't that long ago that they expanded, and added a bar/grill. But they had backed off tobacco sales, concentrating on cigars. Last time I was in there Jared told me that the pipe tobacco wasn't moving. Of course, I would say that shutting down their internet sales was one reason for that, but I'm no businessman.
For a time, the Knox Cigar board was one of the most active and entertaining internet boards around.
I hate to see this happen. I really like that shop. I've bought a bunch of tobacco there, and at least two pipes.
