Hanadco Tobacco

Bro. Just sell your damn shop or hire someone who actually wants to be there and sell glass and tobacco. What in the world are you doing there sitting in a pretty busy plaza taxing and having dumb nonsense no one wants to buy. Oversized Pacino T’s? Nah bro. Sell the shop or hire a young nephew of yours or something.

Cigars seem to be an afterthought here. Cigars recently purchased seemed authentic, but not stored properly, one had holes and others were a bit on the dry side.

I visited Hanadco in search of loose cigarette tobacco. As I entered, the gentleman at the counter hardly lifted his head to acknowledge my presence. Seeing that he was involved in whatever he was doing, I proceeded to browse. Not finding what I had come for I decided to ask. He once again hardly acknowledged me.
I shared with him that I was looking for loose cigarette tobacco, tubes, and a filling/​inserting machine. He replied that he didn’t sell loose cigarette tobacco and turned away.
I expected him to offer to show me something considering that he does sell the tubes and rolling machine!
Customer service at it’s worst! Ever heard of up-​selling! My sale went out the door. And wont come back!

I recently discovered the existence of Hanadco Tobacco in Manassas — which means I no longer have to travel to Fair Oaks Mall in Fairfax when I decide I want to pick up a couple of cigars. I don’t smoke them very often, but I do enjoy one here and there.
Yesterday was one such day. I made it down there about 5:30 pm. The cigars are housed in their own climate-​controlled room — you can feel the humidity when you enter the walk in Humidor.
I grabbed a few of the Arturo Fuente 858’s — a tasty cigar with a Maduro wrapper. Compared to the prices at John B. Hayes Tobacconist at Fair Oaks Mall — these are about a buck more per cigar.
