I have been using Gerards via mail for years…read more They have had an amazing selection of Cohiba, Partegas. Montecristo and my beloved Hoyo De Monterey epicurean#2 To my shock when I visited in person they had NO cuban cigars at all... I nearly fainted. There is now a world shortage of good ol cuban sticks I know its not their fault.... Just bummed

This was a real pleasure visiting Gerard Pere et fils since I have enjoyed their books/guides for…read morethe past 15-20 years. Anyone that is seriously interested in Habanos should look for the their two book set Cigars - The Art of Cigars/The Worlds Finest Cigars and the long out of print The Connoisseurs Guide to Havana Cigars. Both are excellent but difficult to find and unfortunately their only book readily available is the large Havana Cigars picture book. All were written by Vahe Gerard and his late father. Their books along with Min Ron Nee's and Charles Del Todesco's are my favorites. For this reason it is extremely interesting to walk into their beautiful store in the Grand Kempinski Hotel by the lake. BTW the address on Yelp is incorrect the store is located on Quai du Mont Blanc not Rue Plantamour. The Habanos selection is very impressive but what really gained my attention were their cigar accessories. The visit ended up with only a couple cigars purchased instead I happily acquired a Gerard Pere porcelain cigar jar and ashtray which are expensive but beautifully crafted. This is easily one of the nicest tobacconists I have had the pleasure to visit.

LE DOUBLE DU PRIX NORMAL!!…read more BEWARE: This store charges DOUBLE THE PRICE! I'd give them 0 stars if I could, very bad prices, very rude people.
