Gatlinburlier always had a better selection, and has an actual walk-in humidor, where the other store had only showcases (which they DID keep at proper humidity. The Gatlinburlier still has an excellent selection of pipes and pipe tobaccos, and if you bring your pipe in with you, they will give you a free bowlful for it!! When we were there in 2009, they had a full box of Sharks that no one seemed interested in! They sold it to me for $225 in a heartbeat.
I'd be interested to know if the freestanding shop still exist. The lady running it last time I went in there (probably 2008) was super nice and helpful, though not near as knowledgeable as Jeremy or myself, but still helpful and NOT pushy. |
I too prefer the Gatlinburlier shop. Great people, knowledgeable and passionate (especially about pipes
) and a good selection of pipes, tobacco and cigars. The smaller shop by the Hard Rock Cafe was decent but not as large.
My wife and I were in Gatlinburg in early June. We caught a baseball game in Knoxville then spent the night, visiting Gatlinburg the next day before heading home.
