    I've been here a few times to have my cigar and unwind after work before heading home to my family. Its a nice place with friendly staff.

    Amazing selection of fine cigars. The atmosphere is unique. The aroma is alluring even outside of the store. Just bought Dominican cigars and I hope my husband likes them! The store owner even suggested me to change the package of the humidifier fridge due to the changing weather. Thank you! I will sure to come back!

    Had a terrific experience with the team at Jack Schwartz, and we're on opposite sides of the Atlantic! My sister was visiting Chicago, and I wanted her to bring some cigars back to the UK (cheaper than buying here!). They helped me pick a quality box within my budget, plus a couple of extras, set it aside in their humidor for my sister to collect in a couple of weeks" time, and packaged it all up with a humi pack to make sure the smokes made the flight in top condition. Couldn't be happier!

    Had a very disappointing experience when I tried to order some cigars online from this business. I placed an initial order for some particular cigars and was charged for them in full. Given the fact that there are no disclaimer or buying thresholds on the site, I was under the impression that there was no limit to the number I ordered two boxes and phoned in another 5 single cigars to my order since I was not beyond any amount mentioned online or verbally. When a family member tried to order a box of the same cigars, I received a call from the manager/ owner yelling at me about the additional request even though I was not aware of the order placed. He stated we are out and there are no more available. I would not be able to place another order or another family member regardless of the circumstances. In the meantime he cancelled the order from the family member after she was also verbally reprimanded on the phone when reaching out inquiring about the order. All along, the first order had been shipped and I was expecting delivery. When I checked on its progress, I discovered it had been intercepted(cancelled) by the owner and redirected back to its original point. I was never notified that this was going to happen even though I had paid in full and the charge was in my credit card statement. I sent an email sharing my displeasure and offered an opportunity to discuss the situation with him. I received no follow up communication, just an automatic notice that my sale was cancelled and refunded. All this could of been avoided with simple website clarification on purchasing restrictions and better customer service oriented communication.

    Stopped in to burn some time before my flight. Only intended to have a little smoke and keep moving, but I ended up hanging out for two. Great shop, great folks, excellent humidor.

    Ordering from Jack Schwartz Importers was a delightful experience. Accordingly, the shop's online selection is unique, impressive, and offers a wide range of authentic cigars from various regions, each with its unique characteristics. The staff were prompt, friendly, and readily shipped the unique cigars. The shop will carefully pack the box by wrapping silk paper around it. All things considered, Jack Schwartz Importers is a must-order for both seasoned aficionados and newcomers to the world of cigars.
