Edwards Pipe & Cigar

I know nothing about cigars, but the staff poi ted me in the right direction. i was worried that I wouldnt understand what they were saying but they explained everything simply and effectively

We were in town for a meeting. I called the shop 5 minutes before they closed and we were 15 minutes away. Paul at the shop said, «I’ll wait until you get here!» And he did. Great shop! Great people! Great atmosphere!

You would have a hard time finding a better smoke shop in Northern Colorado. Paul and Jim really know their stuff and the selection is ridiculous, a perfect mix of big names and boutique smokes. Great coffee great Cigars what more could a growing boy want!

Great Humidor & selection. I mean nearly every major cigar maker known. Knowledgeable staff –if you have any idea what your tastes are they will help you find a stick to match it. Espresso in the back room that is excellent and an unbelievably cool clientele. Yes there is a lounge fee, but it’s reasonable as you have to pay for the brick and mortar. Otherwise I could just buy at CI and sit in my garage… yikes ! Also, if the regulars are around I suspect you will enjoy the conversation.

Paul is always helpful and there’s usually a great selection of cigars!

I’ve smoked cigars for a few years now and I’ve been to many shops around the country. At every one of those shops, you can buy a cigar and then sit down and smoke it at the shop. For free. That’s every one of the shops I’ve been to but Edward’s Pipe & Cigar in Fort Collins. I recently went into Edward’s for the first time and bought a $ 10 Perdomo and fully expected to sit in their lounge for an hour, watch TV and have a stick. But when I paid for the cigar I was told it’s an additional $ 5 to sit in the lounge and smoke. What an absolute rip off. Edward’s could earn a lot of biz by allowing customers who buy a stick to smoke it in their lounge free of charge. Instead, they’re basically telling me, «Go buy your sticks elsewhere.» So, I will. And I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the prices at Edward’s. It’s expensive and the selection sucks. But they did offer me a ‘Cigar Club’ membership for $ 30/​month that would give me a discount on already overpriced boxes of cigars and would allow me to sit in their lounge and smoke at will. Really? $ 360 per year for a ‘Cigar Club’ membership? Really lame. I’ll never buy at this dump again and I certainly won’t recommend it to friends.

this store had empty spaces on their shelves. The cigars are overpriced. Anyone going into the store would only buy one or two cigars. The clerk was not helpful. She had no knowledge of their inventory. Overall a bad experience.

This place sucks. Apparently they are broke and have to try to charge you just to walk in the door. I’m a member at two cigar shops in Denver where I live and I’ve never been treated so poorly in the ten years I’ve been smoking cigars. You have to pay five dollars just to smoke a fifteen dollar cigar in the lounge so now your cigar is twenty bucks. Or, you have to buy fifty dollars worth of cigars to smoke one for free. Also, the cigars here are about a dollar-​fifty more than they are at my shop in Denver. I will never buy anything here.

This is THE best tobacconist in Fort Collins. I have been going here for around a year now. I bought my first pipe at this store and have continued to buy cigars and my pipe tobacco here ever since. Great place, I definitely recommend it!

I was never someone who wanted to smoke but in 2012 I really am convinced that I am going through a mid life crisis. There are many things that I want to try and have not and have a strong curiosity about them. Ironically enough in 2012 Colorado seemed to have gone through a crisis as well just as my midlife one became identifiable. There were a number of severely damaging wild fires in the state. Fort Collins had its share of fire with the Hewlett Fire earlier in the summer and the very damaging High Park Fire that came later. My curiosity with experimenting with cigars, cigarettes, pipes and hookah did indeed get a bit dimmed when these fires were going on because the streets were lined with smoke and residents were encouraged to stay indoors.
Yet my curiosity with experimenting remained. I knew about Edward’s for a while since there are a few restaurants I like nearby. I had a heck of a time trying to find pipe tobacco for my new pipe and decided to come here. The selection for pipe tobacco is impressive and tastes good but (Oh wow) what a selection of cigars! Being such a novice with any of this I felt very overwhelmed but extremely impressed on the selection of cigars they had here. They also had a lounge that connected to the store so you could go in and relax. Really a nice set up! The guy that ran the place was nice and eager to assist.
I have not been to many smoke shops in town but I was very impressed with Edward’s when it comes to pipes and cigars!

From the Outside, Edwards Pipe and Cigar looks like a Cheesy strip mall where you might go to get your teeth drilled, or pick up a Slurpee.
But looks can be deceiving. The inside of Edwards Pipe and Cigar is a Cigar lovers Paradise. There is a humidor big enough to drive a truck through, and a beautiful smoking area that offers the Cigar lover a wonderful place to relax and not be harassed by the anti tobacco militia.
They had an extensive library of Old Cigar Aficionado Magazines for sale and a great selection of lighters and cutters.
The only bad thing is the 40% tobacco tax that they good people of Colorado saw fit to levy on us Cigar lovers. But to be honest, even with the Steep Sin tax, the prices were pretty competitive with what I pay in Downtown Chicago. I only wish that I had the time to light one up and chit chat with the locals.
The shop was wonderful, and I’m sure that I will stop in at least one more time before heading back to reality in Chicago.
