Mi Querida (pronounced “me kay-ree-dah”) literally translates as “my dearest”. Steve Saka released this beautiful broadleaf near the beginning of his launch of Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust. If there is something Saka is known for its complexity, balance, and flavor, and the Mi Querida cigar is a shining example of that. Not only are the flavors and taste stunning, but the packaging of the recognizable blue and gold band offers this cigar is an immaculate presentation. When Steve has remarked on this cigar he has said the following:
“Mi Querida represents my personal maduro desires: a robust, extremely flavorful liga comprised of rich Nicaraguan leaf hand rolled in a 100% naturally fermented, heavy Broadleaf capa. Earthy and dense with a long teasing, slightly dirty finish, Mi Querida is delightfully lush and full bodied on the palate offering an extremely satisfying experience for the most passionate of cigar smokers. Mi Querida is a bold cigar with a copious smoke punctuated with flavors of earth, chocolate, coffee and slightly peppery notes.”
The Mi Querida cigar uses a dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper around Nicaraguan binder and fillers. Produced as one of Saka’s core lines, this cigar is not to be missed! If you can get your hands on it, don’t wait, add it to your collection or smoke it when you get it. It’s a fine cigar and appeals to a diverse palate.
