Established in 1970 Founded by Jim and Gwen Reeves in August of 1970, The Country Squire has been a Mississippi fixture and tradition for 46 years. Mr. and Mrs. Reeves, along with their daughters Kit and Kim, worked to bring the Deep South a pipe and cigar experience like no other. In the 1980s The Country Squire had four locations in and around Jackson, all specializing in premium tobacco products. In 1981 after the death of Jim, Mrs. Reeves faithfully ran the business for another 31 years, eventually consolidating the brand to the original location on Lakeland Drive. Today, The Squire is owned and operated by Jon David Cole, who works to continue the tradition of hand blending high-quality tobaccos and carrying the latest and best premium tobacco products. Trained by Mrs. Reeves herself, Jon David is devoted to carrying on the legacy and tradition of this Southern institution.
