Muestra de Saka is a collection of different cigar blends from Steve Saka of Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust, each to be released at separate times throughout the next year. It was unveiled at the 2016 IPCPR and Muestra de Saka translated means “Sample of Saka".
Steve Saka of Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust announced on Facebook today, two new sizes to the Sobremesa Brûlée line: Brûlée Double Corona, and Brûlée "Blue."
At this year's IPCPR Trade Show, Steve Saka of Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust was showing off a total of 3 new lines and two line extensions.
Last year, Two Guys Smoke Shope chose the Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Mi Querida for their annual firecracker release. This release is a special size and blend that comes out every year from different manufacturers, including: My Father Cigars, Tatuaje (in the
form of an M80), La Flor Dominicana, RoMaCraft, Fratello and Kristoff. The cigar is shot and has a long fuse for a cap.
The highly anticipated StillWell Star by Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust and Steve Saka is officially launching this Friday, November 5th. It will be exclusive to Smokingpipes.com and its brick-and-mortar store Low Country Pipe & Cigar for the time being. This marks the first time Dunbarton has launched a new national product at a single store. The company says it will be several weeks before the nationwide release.

"Looking at a cigar like this, you kind of feel like you know what you're going to get. And sometimes it's nice when that holds true if it is something you typically enjoy. Good and hearty, with rich bold flavors make for a great session in the cold weather. I'm glad I got the opportunity and look forward to discovering what it is, so I can smoke it again to pair with a delicious coffee stout. It feels like they would be made for each other and I'm happy to find out for you." -Doug S. (Unpossible_1)
It has been known for a while that Steve Saka would be bringing his latest “Sin Compromiso" line to this year's IPCPR convention, but today we got the official announcement with more details. "Sin Compromiso" translates to "Without Compromise." Steve Saka has said publicly that this is the best cigar he has ever blended.
"This cigar was great in my opinion. A well-built cigar that was very easy to work with. Simple cut, light, and smoke made this cigar very nice. The flavor profile was delicious. There was not a lot of complexity, but the overall smoke and aroma was absolutely pleasant. If I could make one suggestion, I would say to pre-cut the cigar and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. This will allow an ample amount of rest time and will get the remainder of the harshness out of it, so that it will burn and taste great all the way through. Enjoy these, they are worth the buy." -Steve (ThaGreatWazoo)

·"This was a cigar that fired on all cylinders for me. Once I paired it with a very rich stout, it really came into its own and was a superb cap to my evening. I have absolutely nothing to criticize with this sample. It would be my honor to personally thank the blender and roller of this super premium cigar. This will find a home in my rotation if I can find more!" -Jason H. (Jokey Smurf)
