BriaryBigSign-008s.jpg (55492 bytes) Below are photos of our The Briary pipe and tobacco store.  We were located in a mall for 26 years and in March 2000, moved into our own store!  We bought a farm house which dates back to 1899 in the city of Homewood.  As you can image, it took a great deal of work to whip a 100 year old house into shape.  We now have a extra large humidor filled with a wide choice of tobacco and cigars.  A room to showcase our large assortment of pipes from Dunhill to Cavicchi and everything in between, we also have tinned and loose tobaccos.  We have a separate room for our gifts, lighters, humidors and accessories.  We also have a kitchen  stocked with sodas and coffee.  And best of all we have a great smoking room with a palm leaf fan where you can relax on the leather chair or sofas and have in-depth conversations with your friends.  We even keep a guitar for those who like to play.

Take a look at the Photos of Erik Nording Pipe and Cigar Show at The Briary.   Special thanks to Erik Nording from Denmark for bringing his pipe show and cigar tasting to The Briary.  Everyone had a great time smoking their Nording cigars and having their Nording pipes autographed by Erik.   If you you would like to take a look at  Nording pipes we have two pages for you to see.
