Yes, it is the same shop. Last October I went to rhe Houston/College Station area to visit my nieces. Before I left it was shared with me that the shop is waning and somewhat dying a slow death. Even when I was there, there wasn’t much on the shelves. The blend itself is really good, a mild Va/Per. If I remember correctly, the component tobaccos are rubbed out Va Slices, perique and a matured red Va. Try calling the shop. They did say they ship. Detective’s Blend is a house blend for them.I like the name "Detective's Blend," but the website for the Briar Shoppe (in Houston?) lists a few pipes for sale and nothing about tobacco. is that the right place?
