Oiliva rep

Hugemoose

No I'm not one....yet. But, I did have the pleasure of meeting one today. I was at a local B&M and enjoyed a Hemingway with a few friends, including Walt from Stogiereview.com. About 5 minutes before I had to leave for work a man walked in with a full box of Cain Double Toro (6X60) Habano.

He introduces himself as Dave, an Oliva rep, and proceeds to hand everyone in the room (5 of us) a Cain. I felt bad that I couldn't enjoy it right then and there. The reason he handed them out was because they have been having reports of damaged sticks. So he explained that they added more foam in the boxes and tightened the ribbon. All in all it was a nice afternoon and some great cigars! I just thought I would share my first meeting with cigar rep with every one here. Besides working until midnight.....it was a good day.

That's pretty awesome! I've had the pleasure of meeting reps from Kristoff, DE, Rocky, Gurkha, CAO, and Punch, though none were quite as generous as that. Sounds like a good day for ya!

Wow, you met all those reps and not one of them gave you a freebie? Sorry to hear that. Ive only met 1 mac rep and he gave me a few cigars.

I love the Cain Habano. Nice work on the free stick. If you learn anything from this, it's that people buy from people they like, regardless of the product. You make yourself present at the retailer and be cool to everyone there and it pays off.
