Old Knickerbockers Tobacconist was founded in beautiful Menlo Park in the 1980’s. Dennis, founder and previous owner has decided to pursue other avenues of interest. Bill purchased Old Knickerbockers in 2008 and has stepped in to keep the dream alive. About as much as he enjoys a fine cigar himself, he enjoys hooking up other cigar smokers with the finest smokes money can buy.  He fell in love with the old world look and feel of Old Knickerbockers and knew it was a perfect fit for him.  If you’ve been to Old Knickerbockers before, you already know how unique and wonderful it is. If you haven’t, you are in store for a real treat. You have to see this place to believe it!
