On behalf of Holt's, I want to issue an apology to Ernesto Padilla and Padilla Cigars for the tenor of recent comments in our Father's Day 2008 Catalog. The tone of these comments and the copy in question steps over the line of good taste. I assume personal responsibility as part of my role at Holt's is to approve final copy, and in the rush of going to press, this one slipped past me. For over 100 years, Holt's name has been synonymous with high-quality products, premier customer service and a respect for our customers and our industry and this copy does not comport with those high standards.
Sincerely,
Sathya Levin
Holt's Cigar Company
Sounds like Roger Clemens...without the 'taking personal responsibility' part..... :laugh:
But by the same token, the man did apologize and I would think has learned a valuable lesson....don't try to be cute at other people's expense....especially with their livelihood.
He knew what he did and got caught doing it....'nough said.
The Decency Police are at work at CP, it's refreshing to see quite frankly.
