I guess stuff like samplers or cutters with brands on them and things of that nature maybe?

These are common, but useful things, I will agree.

A nice travel humi.

The 30 or 50 count X-Treme from Famous would be reasonably prices.

A Zero Haliburton would be an exotic gift.

Re: Gift Ideas?
Unique stuff is always the best. Sampler packs of unique vitolas, or other relatively rare or strange things that might be useful.

I agree. The things you can't just go out an buy on a whim, but you have to spend alot of time looking for.

All great suggestions, but the gifts Im inquiring about are to give as freebies at events with the purchase of a cigar from the Victor Sinclair Line.

I see rare, and hard to get has been the preferred item. How about a cigar related item where the sticks are produced, The Dominican Republic?

Not sure if you're asking for something you can buy off the shelf, or things that will be branded with the VS logo. For swag giveaways, the standard fare is cheap cutters/punches, Bikini Calendars, Ring Gauge (plastic card with various sized holes), etc.

I know a lot of people like to collect fancy matches. For instance, four inch wooden matches with a unique colored tip.

You could give away humidipacks (tiny boveda packs, about the size of a moist towelette) that have the VS logo printed on them. I bought some from a B&M for 50 cents each, so the wholesale cost should be small, depending on volume.

How about a color booklet, showing the life cycle of a cigar from seed to box?

The most enticing giveaway is always the free cigar with purchase. I've even been to events where they hand roll the free cigars right in front of you, but you had to buy 3 qualifying cigars to get the freebie.


For a raffle, maybe a retired VS cigar mold, VS Ashtray, Travel Humidor, Cigar Books, Hats, Shirts, or a box/sampler of VS cigars.

Re: Gift Ideas?
I'm easy, just give me a "gift card" and let me chose which of your VS products I want/like.

Re: Gift Ideas?
Free cigars always get me. That handrolling suggestion is great too. It would be hard to pass on something unique like that.
