Captain Tobacco

Solid inventory of cigars. Most are Dominican which is expected. However, they do have some Ecuadorean as well as Nicaraguan. If you are looking for glass pipes or «water pipes,» then they have plenty to choose from as well.

Cool little spot, and I do mean little. They did have a walk in humidor, but I was there for pipe tobacco on my way home. The older guy working there was super cool and willing to chat for a while.

Captain Tobacco is as good as it gets… variety variety and great prices… oh yeah… and the service is FANTASTIC! Fun people.

This is my second time at this little shop. It’s lit the by size but not by selections. Prices are good, you can expect to pay about 10−15% less than other shops. Very good conditions for storing cigs. As far as smoking place. It’s tiny… Right in front of counter. When you walk in its looks kind of not desirable … However small space compensates with nice conversations and homy kind of atmosphere. Sales girl is pretty good in cigars, got second time advice and both times right on spot! If you have 40 – 50 min try this shop!

I used to come here when I smoked, and I bought a vapor to try the new liquid type. I tried to return the stupid thing because they don’t work — I guess they have a no refund, no return policy. He was not rude, he just took my name and number and said someone would call me. Kind of like the US Government. Won’t ever ever call back. I think these owners have a problem with people of Authority that are American. Does anyone else have issues like this with this store? Posted by a proud Female Pasadenan.

Great selection of cigars without «beat you over the head prices». It’s a no-​nonsense shop, unlike the highfaluting shop in Old Town, with a variety at just about every price point.

Nice place, smoking lounge for people to relax, smoke, chat, watch the news.
I was surprised by how well the place was stocked-​literally floor to ceiling!
Everybody was friendly and relaxed and the prices are good.

Hate to actually write a review… a good one that is! More people will come and then it will just get busier. But these guys deserve it. Don’t even want to admit how often i am there or how much time i spend there any given week! Let’s just say i have been a loyal customer for well… over a decade! They have the cigar you are looking for… or will do everything they can to make sure they have it the next time you are in. Have to love that service. Stop by and enjoy!

Good selection at every price point for just about any cigar smoker. One of those places where you’re not paying as much for the retailer’s expensive overhead (i.e. Ceniza).

Holy Cigar Smoke! The different aroma’s were enough to make me wonder what does he have inside that moderate size walk in humidor. This place is for the every day «Joe» that enjoys a a cigar almost daily or that sophisticated intelligent Law Professor that never forgot where he came from but can afford the adequately priced Opus X. Yes ladies and gentemen this place has it all from the $ 2.00 cigar to $ 30.00 + variety that we have all come to know and love. I can name all the brands they carry but would be too much to put down. You will have to come and see for yourself. There is also plenty of other tobacco products for a cheaper price than many stores around (I have even seen a gas station attendant come in there and stock up on cigarettes for their store). Along with that there are your choice of pipe tobacco, hookah and supplies and cabinets full of lighters, flasks, pipes, cigar cutters, etc.
Oh by the way, if you see Any cigar with what seems like mold, its NOT! its called plume. that is a fine sign of an aged cigar. The stock moves very quickly

I was very disappointed of the treatment my wife recieved. I’m curently in the army in. My wife decided to by some Ciagars for me to share with some soldiers. Also she purchased a pipe later that day she decided to return it. or exchange it for something else.
She was treated like a criminal they told her they don’t exchange or return items. If she does not like it to call the police or they will call the police for her. Very sad this is the last time we will shop there. Rude people working behinde the counter no respect to customers.
Any body looking for better treatment go to mission liquior store for Cigars, hooka suplies .at least you treated like customer not like criminal by bunsh of hudloms. This is not the way our country operate… Stay away… The manager Gave order to employee to handle the situation as such. Not to mention that shady reciept does not state any thing on it about there shady practices.

Cigar lovers, get your tissues! This place is ridiculous! There’s a few chairs for relaxing in, nothing like that they have over at Cenzia, but keep reading. Their humidor, while the smallest walk in I’ve seen in Pasadena, is packed with damn near everything I could think of. Everything from cheap dollar hand rolleds, to the really good quick smokes I love but can never find (try Romeo y Julieta: Julietas), and even Opus X singles!
Unlike Cigars by Chivas many of their cigars have a nice layer of plume — word to the wise, plume looks like powder, very fine, and there’s generally very very little. Mold has structure and happens in dots or splotches.
EDIT: Removed a star in favor of Mission Liquor and Tobacco which has better prices and a larger selection of everything.

i was on a hunt for hookah supplies that werent located in Glendale… and this place was pretty disappointing. i dont smoke cigarettes! so this place was completely useless for me. there were some crappy coals and bad flavors for cheap, other than that… go here if you have a nicotine craving.

This is a no nonsense Tobacco store packed to the gills with every brand of smokes imaginable. I am addicted to Dunhill Reds but refuse to pay full price. You can find me here on Saturday afternoon loading up for the week.
