Les Fines Lames Lighter, Plasencia and Davidoff Year of the Horse and New Ramon Allones Edicion Limitada 2024 Absolutos

Hi everyone, it has been a little while since I wrote my last blog, we are certainly getting a lot busier now in the lead up for Christmas.

On Monday, it was Marcus and I in the shop. We started the day with a vast amount of online orders! I have noticed that at the start of the month (which tends to be most people’s pay day), we get a lot of orders for cigars and accessories. It’s good to see many customers saving their money to purchase their wanted accessories. I served a lovely customer, who enjoyed the Drew Estate Acid Blondie. This time he wanted something slightly different to which I suggested the Leon Jimenes Blond – I have personally tried this and loved the vanilla flavour it holds. Once we were back in the shop I mentioned our Christmas raffle – That’s right! Our yearly raffle is back and better than ever! This time we have a great selection of treats including The Norfolk Nog liqueur, Cuban coffee, a Cigarism lighter and cutter gift set, A beginners pipe set and a £50 gift voucher to spend in store! In total the value inside the hamper is worth over £220! You have to come to the Norfolk store to take part and you have until the 19th of December to take part!

On Tuesday, I was picking online orders again. As with Monday, there was a lot of accessories to be picked, one that interested me was the Les Fines Lames – Le Feu Lighter. They are very elegant, I think I will add it to my wishlist. Afterwards, I started opening deliveries, I usually shy away from our deliveries, however, I have decided to try to do more manual work, which includes deliveries. One of the deliveries was from the sole distributor of Cuban cigars to the UK – Hunters & Frankau. With every delivery of cigars we inspect them upon opening to ensure we have the highest quality supply possible. Later on in the day I created the December cigar subscription leaflets. These are the final ones of the year and so I have tried to get the best I can for my loyal subscribers.

On Thursday, I was doing my promotional work. I started by writing three news pieces for the C.Gars news page – They were about the New Plasencia Year of the Horse and the upcoming Davidoff Year of the Horse. I have seen the Plasencia and it looks phenomenal! I love the cigar design. The final news piece was about the latest release from Cuba! The Ramon Allones Edicion Limitada 2024 Absolutos. I have waited a long time for this to come in and now it’s here I can not wait to get one! We have numerous events around the UK to celebrate this release, so check with your local store to see when they will be sampling it and get yourself a ticket! Afterwards I finally wrote my article for the C.Gars cigar library about the retails team trip to The English Distillery, which you can read by clicking here. I took all of the pictures, which I found more tricky as I had never taken pictures in action before, but i’d like to think I did a good job, what do you think?

On Friday, I was picking online orders again, as a team we all got together and did the morning ones in record time! During this time we had a lot of deliveries come in and so I made a start on the Cuban cigars, of which all of the Ramon Allones Edicion Limitada 2024 Absolutos came in ready for the events. All of those going to the event will certainly enjoy the goodies you will be receiving! After checking over all of those deliveries, I then helped out with the rest of our supplier deliveries and put them all away. It was a great team effort and afterwards we were tired, but extremely happy with how we all worked together. Afterwards, I started working on the December shop newsletters. I had to get the shops content early this month as I am going on holiday soon and would like to be ahead for when I get back. Luckily in the afternoon, Marcus and Josh took care of the Cuban stock count and so I carried on with newsletters.

On Saturday, it was the team of Josh, Marcus and myself. We started out day by picking orders, I must say Marcus has massively improved his speed on picking and is doing a good job. Afterwards, Josh packed the online orders and I trained Marcus on how to sell whisky, he unfortunately missed out on our trip to The English Distillery and so I became the trainer. I gave him a sample of our own Stalla Dhu Speyside and Islay as well as the C.Gars malt.

I hope you have enjoyed this weeks blog and I hope to see you all in store very soon.

So long for now.

Oliver.
