The Biggest Cigar Warehouse I've Ever Seen

[Lamboinee]

I had the opportunity to visit the Famous Smoke Shop retail store in Eaton PA this week. For us yanks, many of us are familiar with Famous as it has a major online presence. For those of you unfamiliar, it is probably the biggest family owned cigar retailer in the country. No, there are no CCs, but they have some good smokes. I took the opportunity to pick up a few NC go-tos and BUNCH of NCs I've never tried that I can use to punctuate my landscaping with charred half smoked cigars (let's hope there are some good ones). Also, they were kind enough to let me poke my head into their warehouse and take a look at the size of their operation. For a sense of scale, their warehouse had about 30 aisles that were each 30-40 yards long stacked, packed, and racked with cigars from floor to ceiling. Also, there were some cool humidification devices at the top of the building that look like space heaters but which actually "spit" water/vapor into the whorehouse constantly. All pics were approved by their staff, because I know you guys were concerned about that 😉. Hope everyone enjoys this little view into the NC world. Yes, El Pres, they have room for nudies, I even measured out some acceptable display areas in anticipation.

Well I at least hope the whores get paid extra for that.

The warehouse is an eye opener to most.  Thanks for sharing.

I only live an hour away from there but still never made my way there. I need to plan a trip soon

No places like that outside US. Perfect if They sell CCs too

I think it's A Harem of Dusky Beauties. Lol. One of my best typos ever.

That is a ton of cigars. If Rob had a warehouse like that with so much stock, there would be no school of sharks attacking one small bucket of chum!

[KRunch61]

Damn! What I hope to see (if) and when I pass through those Pearly Gates!

is that where the world's massive supply of 2014 Fonseca 1's have been hanging out?

Car/truck/Uber/helicopter. Waze/Google maps/randmcnally/tsa precheck. Embark. Disembark. Boom planned. No excuses now sir! You should go, especially if it's only an hour away. I wish I would have had enough time to actually chill out and smoke one while I was there. It might not blow your mind..... But it's a good way to kill a Saturday afternoon.

I don't think Nudies will last to get to retailers.

Impressive

I've visited over the years, but more often to the previous location which was in the same area but didn't have bar/food. Never went into the warehouse though. Just the retail store. Cool pics!

@El Presidente or anyone else.   How does this warehouse compare in size to the regional Habanos distributors around the world? 

[Gibble819]

Very cool

Good question....I'm also curious.

Unofficial press release: "Habanos regional distributor storage facilities are the storage facilities of distinction born of a combination three factors that only exist in warehouses of those preeminent regional distributor facilities for Habanos: the storage, the facility, the facilities of storage. Every facility must meet the standards of the strictest requirements and their pre-storage characteristics must consist of only the most vacuous and vast open spaces absent of other matter in which to house the later stored items." Perhaps it was lost in translation....

I wonder how one might be able to decipher the location of the facilities?  Hmmm.
