It's not unusual for people to feel a little nervous or unsure before visiting a smoke shop. Perhaps this is because, although smoking is legal for adults, it does have some stigma surrounding it. Or maybe it's because visiting a store that sells only smoking material and paraphernalia is just so different from buying cigarettes at a grocery store. In any event, here are some questions people often have before visiting a smoke shop. Learning the answers should help you feel more comfortable.
Do smoke shops sell substances other than tobacco?
Generally, if a store is advertised as a smoke shop, you can assume that tobacco products are their main focus. Even if cannabis is legal in your state, cannabis shops are typically known as dispensaries, rather than as smoke shops. Selling cannabis usually requires a totally different license than selling tobacco, so you won't find many shops that sell both. You should head to a smoke shop if you're interested in buying tobacco, and a dispensary if you're looking for cannabis.
Do smoke shops sell cigars?
In most cases, yes. Smoke shops typically sell a wide variety of cigarettes, cigars, and loose pipe tobacco. Cigars tend to be more of a specialized product than the others. If you really want the most exclusive, high-end cigars, then you may want to look for a smoke shop that specifically advertises itself as a cigar shop. Even the average smoke shop will have a far better selection of cigars than your local pharmacy, though.
Can you sample products in the smoke shop?
This depends on the state you are in. In some states, it is illegal to smoke indoors, even at smoke shops, which means sampling products is not technically allowed. In other states, smoke shops are able to allow customers to smoke inside, although they may have to do this in a separate room. Call the smoke shop you're planning on visiting, and ask them about their sampling protocols beforehand. If they do not offer in-store samples, they may have smaller samples of popular products that you can take home and try, which will keep you from having to buy a big package of something you're not sure you'll like.
Hopefully having these questions answered will help you have a better experience at a smoke shop. These tend to be welcoming places, and the staff should be happy to answer any other questions you have. For more tips, contact a company like Hideaway Hudson.
