To Whom It May Concern, My name is Ampy D. Buchholz and I made my first purchase through Thompson Cigars in 1989. As I grew to enjoy cigars more, I continued making purchases once or twice a year. For a long while, I would call, place an order and then be invoiced for my purchases. I always paid my bills and there were no problems. Later, it became your policy to only accept orders accompanied with a credit card charge. Although not my preferred method, I went along with this change because I believed Thompson to be a reliable company providing a decent product. During my most recent purchase, I went out onto the Internet and found discount code TCAF150. I input the code (as the purchase was $125.00+) and it was accepted, however upon check out, I noticed that no discount was given. The following day I contacted your customer service number and was connected with your rep Edison (see attached transcript). After stating my issue, Edison informed me that no discount was given because one of the products purchased was not eligible. So, I asked if I might use another code obtained at the same discount site. Edison informed me that this discount number could also not be utilized because the shipment had already left your facility. When he became aware that I was not really satisfied with this situation, he offered me a $5 credit. When I said this still was not acceptable, he increased it to $10.00 to be applied to my next sale. As I was at work and not wanting to waste any additional time negotiating for dimes, I relented. As a client for over 30 years, I have to say I am very disappointed in the perfunctory and mollifying treatment I received in the resolution of my issue. After thinking about this for several days, and the thousands I have spent with Thompson over the last 3 decades, I am still unsatisfied. There are many places where I may make my annual cigar purchases, Cigars.Com, CigarsDirect.com, CigarsInternational.com, etc. If my business means so little to Thompson Cigars after all the years I have spent buying from you, then perhaps it is time for me and my future purchases to move on? Please feel free to take my token $10 credit and spend it on some additional customer service training for Edison and his cohorts. They could surely benefit and you can think of it as the last of the money from me you will ever see. Sincerely, Ampy Buchholz 503-6128324

I've been cigar smoking for over twenty years. I tried the Borkum Riff pipe tobacco and to my surprise the taste is superb and its much milder on my throat.

I've been using Bourbon Whiskey for over thirty years now. I try other flavours and brands occasionally, but have never found anything better. I like the taste and people around me like the aroma. Even strangers often favourably comment on it.

My husband has been smoking a pipe for over 50 years and ever since I have known him, he has used ONLY Borkhum Riff Bourbon Whiskey tobacco. I love Thompson Cigar because their prices are competitive and their service is absolutely superb, but I don't love that they keep sending me email offers to buy cigars, which I have no use for!

Brought this for my dad's birthday and even though you order the 5 pack that is enough for a whole year. He was very happy to start smoking his pip again

This was a father's day gift for my dad, he likes smoking his pip now and then and enjoy having tobacco with flavor. I have brought orange flavor before and he loved it so I thought I would have good luck with this. My dad likes it so far!

It is a little too moist when it arrives. I simply spread it out within the pack, and it is just right for the rest of the pack.

It produces a smooth, rich, oak-flavored draw and is really easy to light. I personally love smoking it with any sort of wine in the evenings or with a cup of coffee in the mornings. Bank for buck, it's a great deal, certainly a purchase I see myself doing again in the near future.
