I have the misfortune/good fortune to be stuck in Laredo Texas for a month for work. I'm planning on running up to San Antonio while I'm here as well. Are there any must visit tobacco related sights that I should hit up while I'm here?
I'm not much of a traveler, but when I do hit the road I enjoy tobacciana related sight seeing. When I was on the east coast I had a chance to visit Boswell's and John B Hayes, which is historically significant for my beloved Tinsky pipe collection. I've also been to the vaunted/haunted Deadwood Tobacco Company.
Unfortunately I was unable to travel with any pipes, and thus far Laredo has proven to be a Davidoff aromatic wasteland. Thus I am writing this with a nice Padron stick in hand. I did find some Sweet Jane cigars, one of my favorite aros in pipe form, which I thought was interesting, gven that it is a special blend made by Drew Estates specifically for the Deadwood Tobacco Company. I had no idea they were sold elsewhere.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
