This shop - a cozy place - exceeds the mark for a contribution to the broad cigar and local communities. I ran into H&S C while on foot, on a jaunt thru the neighborhood. ::: The aromas, and visuals make this fine place subtle, yet provocative. It allowed me to enter a different era. ::: In this day of internet purchasing - going out my way to visit Raki's was a great experience. The trip here was as much an opportunity to chat with the proprietors as much as a view to a good old - a true - cigar shop. ::: Give Hubbard and State Cigar's your tobacco business - you will be glad to experience this gem.

If you come here, expect to be ignored, dismissed, and made to feel like an inconvenience for simply existing in their store.
