Richard - Sales Associate
Richard brings over 12 years of cigar knowledge to the store to help you make the best choice for your cigar enjoyment.
"What fascinates me about cigars is the synergy of science and art that results in cigars. You have the science of the seed, the soil, the leaf, curing and aging processes. The art of the creating a blend, a style, the skill of the roller create so many different shapes into a perfect finished product. Then there is the human side of the people that create and sustain the culture of the cigar and the society of the aficionado. As I tend to tell customers, come for the cigar and stay for the classroom lesson."

| Frankie - Sales Associate
Nearly five years ago, Frankie set out on a quest to discover all he could about the world of fine cigars., a journey which has led him to Outman Cigars. He will be more than happy to share with you all he has learned so far -not only information and recommendations on the various cigars we carry, but how the pursuit of cigar smoking can add to life's pleasures.
As the famed 19th century preacher Charles Spurgeon once said, “When I have found intense pain relieved, a weary brain soothed,and calm refreshing sleep obtained by a cigar, I have felt grateful to God, and have blessed His name”.
Oh, and while you're talking with Frankie about cigars, don't forget to ask him about his other smoking passion - barbeque - the wood smoked kind, cooked "low and slow".
