Another new release for IPCPR this year that has been teased along side the Sobremesa Brûlée is the Mi Querida Triqui Traca. Now it also has been officially announced. This line extension comes from the Mi Querida line of cigars first released in 2016 and reviewed here.
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.
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.
“Even with the slight harshness and herbal bitterness in the beginning, this was an excellent cigar, and I haven’t said that about a dark cigar in a very long time. I would love to smoke more of them after some additional downtime! The final third was among the best I’ve smoked for BMP. Looking forward to the reveal, and to grabbing a few to put down for a while!” –Derek (StogieNinja)
"This was a very enjoyable and well-balanced dark noted smoke. With fairly constant subtle shifts it kept my interest level pretty high. I would put this in my box-worthy category. The strength is very manageable, and I could easily see it working well any time of day. The only minus is that the burn time is fairly quick for the size." -Chris M. (Chris)
Steve Saka has teased the Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Sobremesa Brûlée online, but now it has been officially announced and is coming to IPCPR.
"I enjoyed this cigar. Plenty of flavors to keep my attention with cream, pepper, leather, wood, nuts and some licorice. Cigar was a medium in strength. I would definitely smoke this again. " -Mickey T. (irratebass)
Steve Saka revealed today on Facebook that his newest offering from Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust would be called the "Mi Querida". It means "My Mistress" - the one I yearn for, the one I desire. Pronounced: Mee Kay-Ree-Da. Saka has reveled that the wrapper will be Broadleaf and describes the new blend as a combination of the Liga Privada No. 9 And T-52.
Unicorns do exist. Steve Saka should know. He created the Unicorn. The Muestra de Saka Unicorn, to be exact. Saka first mentioned the unique and ultra-limited cigar on a social media platform back in mid-December, 2017.
"Great smoking experience on what I would consider a nice overall medium-body cigar. The sweet and peppery profile was a nice combination that played well together. I would reach for these at my local B&M any day." -Quinn (quinnpins269)
