I picked up a Royal Dominicana Cigar - $7.95 for my lovely neighbor who's retired & likes to sit out on his patio with his daily rolled bundle of dried & fermented tobacco leaves.

As I was pulling into the parking lot I thought the store was closed due to half of the windows being boarded up. Apparently they are doing construction.

There was a young lady in the dressing room and she grab the wrong size and Janette was eager to help her by getting her the sizes she needed. I didn't know that they a rewards card and she signed me right on up! You can tell she really enjoys her job. There's nothing better than good ole excellent customer service!!!!

This is a first! I was so engaged that I forgot to take pictures! Yvette greeted me with amazing…read morewarmth. She knew all about the conditions that I was concerned with and was able to offer several alternatives using natural herbs and supplements, to attain my goals. I sampled the sea moss gel, which was actually good tasting because they add real fruit. I invested in some essential oils, body, butters, and hair preparations made from top grade natural ingredients. Each product smells delicious! I am looking forward to excellent results. As Yvette said, it never hurts to reduce the toxic load of body products that comes from putting synthetics on our skin instead of natural, edible products. We parted with hugs and smiles. After all, our skin eats (absorbs)! I will visit again and I highly recommend, especially due to the warm, welcoming ambience that this shop has created. By the way, they are so honest that if they don't carry a particular supplement, they will send you to someone who does carry it. Awesome!

Honestly this store is an absolute dream…read more I'm conscious about where I purchase CBD products, because there are a lot of big claims, fat lies, and dangerous and ineffective products out there. I called in to purchase some CBD products to help with a serious eczema flare up I was having, and Stephanie answered the phone and was truly 10/10 the entire way through. She has a ton of knowledge to share and plenty of consideration and compassion to extend to her customers as well. For example, I have a variety of food allergies, and when I asked about what CBD creams they have in stock, she took care to ask if I had any allergies to any products, and then offered to read the ingredients on each label to me (happy tears starting right about now). Stephanie also mentioned a couple products I may find useful based on our conversation (and, surprise - I love them all!). I also asked if they could accommodate a curbside purchase in light of COVID-19, which Stephanie happily accommodated. I cannot recommend Embrace CBD highly enough - even though my boyfriend is a cannabis cultivator by career, I *will* be finding an excuse to stop in to Embrace every time I'm in the area and support this business! These people are doing CBD right!!

I really never know what to expect in regards to shops that stock products like the ones provided…read moreby this business, but a friend's reference and some internet-research dabbling gave me the impression (and a prayer to God for that impression to actually prove accurate) that this store is very professional and clean, with staff that takes pride in the knowledge, quality, and selection of their merchandise, versus some of the more across-the-tracks "headshops" with poor lighting, a noxious stench that attacks you as soon as you come within twenty yards of it, Pink Floyd over the speakers, and usually inevitably, at least two white dudes with dreadlocks who couldn't even begin to answer any of your questions helpfully, regardless of how hard you may try. I'll cut to the chase (finally), stop smack-talking headshops (though I generally condemn the existence of any that all-too-often adhere to that basic formula listed above, as I believe that those stores which are able to sell "legal highs" but are unable to give any helpful information about their "proprietary" ingredients or warnings or, really, anything helpful that may serve as a means of reducing potential harm) and save you the (likely-long-extinguished) suspense: this shop was a fantastic departure from that headshop bogeyman that inexplicably rests at the forefront of my mind most of the time. The store is tiny but beautifully laid-out, light and airy, and very well-stocked. The employees whom I spoke to, and who were also helping other customers, were incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. While obviously you can't be absolutely certain about the contents of any of their products (as they are not FDA-approved, and the store is not a DC-regulated dispensary), I recognized many of the brands sold and feel quite confident that what you see is what you get. It's very obvious by the information volunteered by the employees (including some very beautiful brochures and pamphlets about their shop and their products -- I uploaded a crappy iPhone photo of the front and back of an introductory brochure to CBD that serves as an excellent 101 for any "beginner") and the upkeep of their shop that they take pride in the range, efficacy, utility, and quality of the products that they sell, and with each customer who doesn't quite know yet where to start in the potentially huge -- and therefore often excessively confusing or contradictory -- world that can comprise CBD or kratom or other herbal modalities, it truly seems that the folks working here make a true effort to match customers with the type of item that would best suit their needs. I definitely give five stars and doff my cap to this store -- after failing to renew my medical marijuana card this past year and having lacked the money and time to rectify that, this type of store is an excellent alternative or complement to the regulated DC medical dispensaries. Obviously they legally cannot sell anything containing THC, but that's no problem with me, and it's always good to see a store that theoretically COULD source more "stoner"-centric products and try to get away with it (we've all seen those weird pop-ups in DC from time to time), they make it very clear that they intend to follow the law to the letter. I hope that this shop sticks around for a long time, because it's very impressive -- aesthetically, economically, and by the helpfulness and non-judginess of their staff -- and I always want to support local businesses like that. (To be fair, I believe that they do have another shop in Illinois or something, but even so, it's still a small, independent company that seems to main high standards and ethics in an industry where they could easily get away with selling bunk garbage, with many customers none the wiser. I admire their integrity.)
