    Morning Smoke
    Jon K.

    I stopped by B & B on my stop through Asheville. They are conveniently located a short walk or drive from the center of town. The folks working and smoking in the shop were very welcoming and social. The humidor is clean and well maintained with my favorite cigars and also many brands that I had not yet tried. There are plenty of smoking areas inside and outside the lounge. I received excellent advice on the correct cigar to enjoy during my visits. I also stocked up on a pipe kit for a friend. These guys know their cigars and pipes. I highly recommend smoking a cigar in the shop and taking home some for later. You won't be disappointed.

    Great staff and selection of cigars with a welcoming friendly atmosphere. It's a must stop place if you are in Asheville for cigars.

    This is the cigar I purchased.  Great taste light robust finish.

    Great place to buy a cigar. The only reason it gets a 4 and not a 5 is that you cannot go pick out a cigar yourself. Most shops have a walk in humidor to explore your options, you have to be knowledgeable on what you want for the sales associate to go pick its out for you.

    Another great day at B&B.

    I started coming here two years ago. I tried the place at the mall but they don't have a very good selection and the place downtown only has their own brand and they are terrible. A friend told me about this place and I have been coming here ever since. You can sit down and smoke it there and if you are not sure what you want the guys that work there will help you pick one out. I also used to smoke a pipe and they have a big selection of tobacco and they have now mixed me my own blend. I highly recommend this place. There is an eclectic group of characters that hang out there. I just got a locker and and it has become a favorite Saturday hangout.

    Front porch seating as well as a cozy place inside for enjoying a cigar with friends.

    smoking the cigar in this lounge, and then another on the porch in the warm summer shade was an experience to remember.

    Saw a shirt in the window the night before I wanted to buy for my stepdaughter. Came back the next…read moreday at 11:15, but the shop was still closed even though window hours said they open at 11. That probably should have been a clue about the type of service they provide. I came back an hour later to try to get the shirt. The store was 100% EMPTY except for the guy behind the counter. Politely asked if he minded me taking my mask off while no one else was there because I have a documented medical condition (legally exempt from the mandate) that makes it hard for me to breathe. From across the store, he told me no. I tried to explain to him I legitimately have a condition and medical documentation I could show him and that I put the mask back on if anyone else comes into the store. He told me to keep the mask on or get out. He didn't give me a reason for why he had a problem. He didn't offer me an alternative, he just was rude. Then, as I left, he sarcastically yelled out for me to "have a nice day". I've made the same request at other stores, and have NEVER been denied because I only ask when there are no other customers in the store. I even openly disclose my condition instead of just saying I'm exempt because I want them to know I'm not just trying to break the rules. It wasn't because it was an "Asheville thing" because three other stores were OK with it as long as no one else was around. I don't go in trying to cause problems. I don't try to make a statement. I just try to give my business to local shops who are willing to work with me and my disability. Once I stopped crying and shaking from the unexpected confrontation, I took my money to another store. One who helped me out instead of being intolerant and hateful. So, if you want to give your business to a place with staff who bullied a woman with an incurable disease when there was absolutely no reason to be a jerk, they may have stuff worth buying. But hey, I probably gave him a chance to brag to people how he got to throw an anti-masker out of the store. Glad one of us got something positive out of exchange.

    First off, this is the best smoke shop I have ever been to. My wife and I stopped by while on a…read moreroad trip. We were helped by a dark haired gentleman who was incredibly friendly and super knowledgeable. He was able to answer every question I had for him, and he offered me some suggestions based on what I had mentioned while talking to him and ended up with a perfect glass piece for me and some legal CBD concentrate. We also left with an awesome dragon incense holder. Pair the great selection with the incredible customer service and you have a recipe for the best shop I've visited to date.

    Hands down, this was a complete experience and a must see when visiting Asheville. It is a relic…read morefrom the old days when general stores literally were just that and generally had everything. The place is massive and is located in the major retail and dining section, so park where you can. I went in there specifically for some snacks, but walked out with clothes, food, syrup, honey, and much more. They have multiple registers so it was a fast check out despite this place always appearing to be crowed. Also, they have a basement that looks more like a legit retail/clothing store than a general store and they also had a bunch of antiques around too. I was in awe of the old school cash register. Again, this is a must see and is great for the kids because of the authentic and homemade sweets and treats.

    I love a general store, and Mast General Store is a good one. They've amassed so many goods -- and…read moreit's on two levels. There's clothing, decorations, foodstuffs, barrels of candy, toys, souvenirs... I spent so much time on the first floor I didn't even go down to the lower level so I have no idea what's even down there. I even bought some clothes -- what I will now refer to as my Pioneer Woman outfit -- totally not my style but so soft and comfortable. Bring the whole family -- the kids will enjoy the large toy and candy section -- and I didn't even look at the large Mast-branded jams, jellies and jarred food section because I wouldn't be able to fit them in my suitcase. Definitely make this a stop on your AVL trip.

    Idk this place gotta burn some sage or somethin. Ive been to smoke shops all over America, where…read moresmoking is legal, illegal, anywhere in between. Look at my history and havent written a review a single time, never felt a need. My friend came in to town and dropped me off to get a piece for the "flower vase" we needed. Go in and am corrected on the terminology....dont call it that it's a "slider" for my "flower vase," okay respect legal language, she was clear it was a legal thing no problem doing her job. Didn't talk about smoking or anything like that so the tone was a little off but cool some places got their own terminology for legal purposes I've been around used to that respect that What was off putting about the tone though just not chill...it was way more corrective then the usual "yeah I know is what it is right just the law" vibe and much more a 2nd grade school teacher who's tired of the kid sniffing glue in the corner of the class saying stupid things vibe. So I kinda already felt a little weird but whatever we needed a piece for my set and they happened to have it, other stores did not. Maybe she's just not fully comfortable yet, maybe had a long day, maybe I was misreading her, maybe she has some anxiety about the thin grey line of legality around her job, maybe doesn't know herself and has yet to develop mindfulness in communication I'm a pretty understanding guy didn't care again whatever Didn't have my ID so I couldn't buy what I wanted okay honest mistake was in my swim suit didnt have my wallet on me. Frankly other places in the city have sold the same item without one so just slipped my mind.... I'm a 32 year old dude, tall, facial hair, frankly too run down to look anything close to 20...but fine. Again, she's doing her job. Can I show her my photo IDs through pictures on phone? No, okay fine, she's just doing her job. Let me just get my friend who does have her ID and is literally 53 to go in that must surely be fine. Nope! She rejected my friend because what my friend wanted was what I wanted, despite my her having legal ID proving she was 53, because what? She thought a 32 year old was 12 and their grandma was trying to score for them? And that 6 foot tall bearded 12 year old also has masterfully manipulated photo images of candid photos of his ID he wanted to show her? Instead of just asking his grandma to go in first because he had a person willing to go in for him from the start? Her reason was I got 7 cameras on me, blah blah blah i can get into a lot of trouble. Given the situation....the person was my friend who came in immediately after me, I was eager to show her my ID on my phone and made an honest mistake, I went in first not my literal 53 year old friend with ID which would make no sense if there was any possibility of a problem in my mind, it's incredibly delusional and although I'm sure she was just defending herself legally in her head thats just a distraction from a need to learn how to communicate better, because it came off as vaguely confrontational from go of me not using the right word choice for north carolina. Maybe her boss will give her a sticker for doing what was "tehnically" right, or she was the boss, but at the end of the day, to reject a grown 50+ year old adult with legal ID because you're afraid they are getting a glass piece for someone who was literally dying to show you his ID, even if you're a bit age blind, is just at somepoint not being able to self reflect and being stubborn. Maybe it wouldn't have felt like a weird power trip if they weren't being delusional, paranoid, and weird from the first sentence said but it is what it is We honestly didn't think for a second about just having my friend go in right after me, it was very immediate and very transparent just sending in someone who didnt forget their ID/isnt clearly in their swim trunks, because the possibility of being treated like some high-school trying to score boos as a man in his 30s hangin w a homie in their 50s is so absurd the possibility just didn't cross my mind. It's obvious she either didn't believe me which wow, I mean.... again i almost want to post a selfie because it's so absurd, or it was just some weird power trip which is much more likely Could've easily gotten my ID, gone back, and have been done with it in the time it took me to right this review but I'm not going back to a place that is being that weird over something so basic. Already took my business elsewhere and they didnt have exactly what i needed so way more expensive, but well worth never stepping in here again. Can't recommend Edit: didn't even ask my friend her impression because she's too sweet to ever want to be negative, but even she said the chick was just rude which is about the nastiest thing ive heard her call someone in my years knowing her
