Cigar shop visit: Schneiderwind Aachen

This weekend I was in Aachen with Britt and her lovely dog Emma to spent a day in the lovely town. It is also the closest town that has a Starbucks ;)

The Schneiderwind shop is located in the Krämerstrasse, one of the nice parts of town, enclosed by many shops. They have two entrances, the historic one for the room with liquors (they have a great collection of single malts, vodka's, rum's, and much more!) and the modern one for the cigar shop.

Inside the cigar shop you are helped by one of the very friendly people. My german isn't that good, and the guy who helped spoke quite slowly and helped me making the perfect choices.

The store itself looks very nice! it has glass lockers with Davidoff accessories and much more.

The humidor isn't that big, but big enough to hold 140 brands.

They also have one of the best cigar websites I have ever seen:

- downloads: you can download their catalog, kalenders, brochures, cigar journals, ...

- order cigars in many ways: by email, fax, post, phone

- new items: a large list of new items and meetings

- virtual tour around the shop!

- large list of historic cognac's and Armagnac's
