Robert Peretti

For over 140 years the L.J. Peretti Co. has been a Boston institution, world famous for our hand blended pipe tobaccos made on the premises, as well as our astounding selection of cigars . Our Park Square location has been headed by Robert A. Peretti since the early forties when he returned from the war. He has since made thousands of pipes , hand blended literally tons of pipe tobacco , sold millions of cigars and custom blended over one hundred thousand blends to suit the tastes of discerning pipe smokers from all over the world, including Ramsey Macdonald , former Prime Minister of England. Other notable visitors over the years include Bing Crosby, Basil Rathbone, Edward G. Robinson, Jack Lemmon, and Walter Matthau.

To this day we still hand blend all of the pipe tobaccos sold in the store.
