If you happen to walk through the Valencia Marketplace you can see an outside table filled with people socializing, smiling and having a good old time. That table sits just outside the Smoke Zone, a tobacco retailer that not only provides the finest tobacco products and essentials, but a social environment for people to gather and make longstanding relationships. “If you visit the Smoke Zone, expect to make friends. It is a highly sociable environment where you will meet the finest quality of individuals and form friendships,” explained owner Zack Chrikjian.
Zack has been in the tobacco business for 11 years. He is confident that Smoke Zone is knowledgeable with all brands of cigars. “We have taken trips to five countries to select tobacco for our house blend of cigars. We have familiarized ourselves with the ‘ins and outs’ of this industry,” Zack said.
Beyond just knowing the tobacco industry, Smoke Zone manufactures a selection of cigars. By knowing all of the different leaves and how to blend the leaves together, they can create a number of desired flavors from a selection of aged, vintage tobacco.
With one business in Thousand Oaks and one in Stevenson Ranch, Smoke Zone offers all types of cigars, including over 360 brands. So what exactly can you expect to find when you walk in? Only the finest selection of the highest rated hard to find premium brands, such as, Opus X, Padron, Anniversario, Ashton ESG, Zino, Davidoff, Avo, God of Fire by Fuente Opus X, P.G. and more. They also make 12 different blends of cigars and offer pipes, cigarettes and a wide variety of accessories, including a number of hand-carved humidors varying in prices.
Smoke Zone will guarantee the largest selection with the lowest prices, but beyond their products, Smoke Zone bases their business on their customers. “We treat our customers with dignity and respect, they are the pillars of our business,” states Zack. “Valencia is the destination of any business that appreciates and values the qualities this community offers.”
Keep Smoke Zone in mind and watch for great gifts and savings this holiday season. Smoke Zone is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
