Hi everyone! Another busy week has passed in Norfolk and we have had some great customers come in to say hello!

On Monday, I was in the shop with Josh. We had loads of online orders to pick! So we got through those as quickly as we could and the next thing you know it’s the afternoon. After the pickings, I spent most of my day stocking up the Cuban humidor and wiping the plume off all of the cigars. I served a gentleman who had never been to the Norfolk store before, he had been to our old location in Rollesby, but this was the first time to our current store in Great Yarmouth and he couldn’t believe his eyes. He went away with some Inka Secret Blend Blue Petit Corona as well as a tin of Neos Country Wilde cigars. 

On Tuesday, we had ourselves a visit from the main men themselves – Mitchell Orchant and Ron Morrison. We did the last bits of polishing as well as final bits of stocking up. I also had a slightly reduced marketing day. I created an article for the C.Gars cigar library, it was all about cigar binders, which you can read here. I also made a new display in our Cuban Humidor to show off our Regius Orchant Seleccion cigars.

I enjoyed a couple of days off and returned on Friday, I had plenty of pickings and it was due to our marketing team running a double up Cuban quick puff sampler. This sampler has always been incredibly popular and when they reduce it even more it flies off the shelf! You need to sign up to our newsletters to receive the amazing offers our team create! I served a great gentleman who is very new to cigars, he had a look on our website, but wanted to come in store to see what we have. We went through both of our humidors and I explained different cigars to him. He went away with a Drew Estate Tabak Especial Toraja and two Mitchellero Picadillo. Safe to say he was happy when he left. Later on in the afternoon it was the Cuban stock count, this time it was Ciaran and myself counting. It has been a while since we both did it together, however we counted it incredibly quick as always!

I hope you have enjoyed this shortened blog, next week it will be back to the usual as I am in store all week, so make sure you come and say hello!

So long for now.

Oliver
