We did it!

We officially opened Oct. 1. The shop looks great, perhaps even exceeding my expectations. The humidor shelves are filling fast and everyone has been complimentary of the selection we're building. We had decent first day sales and are looking forward to the weekend and coming weeks leading up to the grand opening event Nov. 1 with Perdomo, Rocky Patel and Arganese reps. The e-mail list is growing fast and everyone who sees the lounge loves it. One very sweet woman called it "sexy." I'm sure I've never heard that term applied to any cigar shop I've been in before. Now it's a matter of spreading the WiseAsh word and generating some traffic to the store.
