Opus Storage Unit Has Landed

RPB67 turned me on to Jack Schwartz in Chicago and the rest is history. My hat's off to Billy at Jack Schwarts, he didn't have the case, but found it for me at another shop and sent it to me with the aged cigars inside. These have about four or so years on them, the cello is nice and yellow. Mmm, the weekend will likely see these turned to ash.

Jack Schwartz Importers is right near one of my offices. It is a great B&M, lots of cigar space and a great location. Its one of the few places left in the loop where one can go for a quick stogie.

I'm thinking about going to Chicago next month, how's the atmosphere? I'd like to find somewhere to hang out while the wife shops.

Schwartz has a good atmosphere, the smoking area is a little small though. It really depends on where she is shopping. Iwan Reis on Wabash has a larger smoking area and is relatively close to State Street and Water Tower. Up/Down on Wells in Old Town is nice but very tight space-wise.

You could always head to Ditkas restaurant, you can still smoke upstairs and have a scotch!

Thanks for the help, I'll pm you when I get some dates firmed up, maybe you could come by and have a smoke with a BOTL from the deep south.

What a nice package, and a nice candy center.

Re: Opus Storage Unit Has Landed

Nice.

Billy at JSs is a great guy. I bought my case there as well. Nice looking pick-up.

Be careful his website can be very dangerous to the pocket.

I see yello - cello to match that case !!!

From the sounds of a few of these threads, you can be dangerous to the pockets

I need to chase you around offering Cigar Financing after your recommendations
