The
premium cigar brand is enjoying the success of their "Cigar Catering"
service, which features cigar rollers who will personally hand-roll CF
Dominicana cigars for customer special events while
guests look on. The popularity of Cigar Catering has been so
overwhelming that the company now has cigar rollers in 15
cities.
Now just in time for the holidays, the company is introducing their
CF Cigar Servers. These cigar-knowledgeable ladies float the room of an
event and serve cigars to the guests, reminiscent of the speakeasies
during Prohibition. This pleasant visual lends the perfect touch of
style and beauty to the affair while continuing to
fuel the brand's national popularity.
"These ladies consistently get attention," says Dennis Briganti,
President of CigarFlavors.com, Inc., which manufactures the CF
Dominicana brand. "They add a classic element to an event and are the
perfect complement to the cigar rollers. When the cigar servers are on
the floor with the cigar trays and the cigar roller is making the
cigars, the guests know they are at someplace special."
Special it is - the servers are allowed to work only those events
that the company deems appropriate. "We restrict the servers from
certain events; we make certain to eliminate the 'bachelor/frat party'
type mentality," says Briganti.
"Some planners have had a problem with this but our thinking
is,
let them hire a stripper. The cigars are premium, our clients are
sophisticated, the events are upscale and the cigar servers fit the
scheme perfectly."
Event planners have already given deposits to reserve the cigar
servers for their most elite events, even going as far as booking hotel
and air fare. The cigar servers and cigar rollers are responsible for
attracting the huge Internet following for the company, and all of this
is happening before the cigars go on sale through retail cigar stores
in 2006.
CF Cigars has a high-profile client list from events for Maxim
Magazine's Hot 100, a "Sopranos" episode, a "Sex and the City" event,
spirits and beer manufacturers such as Johnnie Walker, Dewar's, the
Miller Co., and confidential celebrity clients from NYC to LA.
CF Dominicana also boasts in-house graphic designers that will
create beautiful cigar bands that are rolled on each cigar at the
event. The company even manufactures gourmet flavored cigars. The
premium cigar industry needed a fresh, new approach to the product and
CF Cigars is the only brand offering any of these unique twists to the
cigar experience.
