Dunbarton Tobacco Muestra de Saka

From the words of Steve Saka himself:

"Muestra is the humble, common word for “sample” in Nicaragua that takes on much more important, sometimes reverential meaning when used in a handmade cigar factory. A muestra is the vision of the ligador and torcedor realized, it is the promise of a new experience and possibly the key to financial success for the fabrica. Muestras are horded and coveted by not only their makers, but by the cigar smokers who seek to catch a glimpse into the cigarmaker’s soul within their smoke.

Muestra de Saka is just that. A line of unique blends and vitolas made in extremely limited quantities that reflect the blending machinations of myself. They include many different expressions and are often crafted of leaf I am less familiar with or not even a particular fan of to create something of worth beyond my own previous experiences.
To smoke a Muestra de Saka is to embark upon a journey with me in which I greatly welcome your companionship."

Cigar is: • A medium strength cigar with full flavor! Presented in 7 count cedar coffin boxes the cigar showcases Nicaraguan filler tobaccos, featuring filler tobaccos from all four primary growing regions of Nicaragua: Jalapa, Condega, Ometepe and Esteli. The initial smoking experience is on the smooth & creamy side with sweetness and notes of cedar wood building up with pepper notes as it progresses to a more complex smoking experience. • Muestra: is the vision of the ligador and torcedor realized. Muestras are hoarded and coveted by not only their makers, but by the cigar smokers who seek to catch a glimpse into the cigarmaker’s soul within their smoke and Muestra de Saka is just that! • #NLMTHA: acknowledged both the challenge of making the vitola from a blending and construction standpoint (and in response Saka, created a 7 x 38 lancero, calling it #NLMTHA, an acronym for 'now leave me the hell alone'.
