UPCOMING RELEASES FROM MIAMI CIGAR & LA AURORA
Miami Cigar / La Aurora has released a Cameroon wrapped cigar in their value priced Time Capsule Series. This blend commemorates the year La Aurora opened — 1903. The 1903 Cameroon joins the 1987 Connecticut and 1962 Corojo. Several months ago, I got to sample a La Aurora cigar that really wasn’t on their US product release schedule for 2017.…

We’re trying to fill that void by expanding our pipe department here at Chesapeake. I’m happy to announce that we’ve added seven of the most popular bulk pipe tobaccos from Lane Limited. Several of these plainly named tobaccos are sold…
Pipe Department Reboot
After seven years, we’re almost completely updating our pipe department — a reboot of sorts. When we opened our doors, pipes were a small part of our business. With The Smoke Shop (opened around 1947) and Fader’s firmly and successfully serving that market, we felt that our pipe department should, at best, augment their efforts. But now, seven years later,…
