Steve Saka’s new Muestra De Saka Krakatoa has just hit the shelves. Last year brought the bewitched, an elegant, flavor forward, medium body Habano, offering both opulence and richness to the line. This year, Steve has gone a different route. The Muestra de Saka Krakatoa has gotten a ramp up in strength, or at least that is what the retrohale brings according to Saka. The name is derived from the famous volcano in Indonesia, which is revered for having the second most deadly eruption in history. Does this evoke certain images about the smoking experience? It does for me, but the only way to tell is by lighting one up!
According to Steve, he says, “Krakatoa is the 7th release in the series – a robust liga of select Nicaraguan Grown Broadleaf, Cuban Seed Criollo and a potent Corojo ligero tripa recipe bound with a Nicaraguan Sungrown capote and wrapped in a beautiful choice Grade A1 Ecuador Habano Seed capa leaf.
Presented in an expertly crafted 6.00 x 48 parejo with a unique “volcano” spiral colita, this is a very elegant vitola. This puro’s liga was truly agonized over and took well over three years to perfect. Delectably sweet and spicy on the palate, it is a refined, yet an explosion of flavor that is sure to satisfy even the most experienced connoisseur. For those doubtful of its strength, I suggest they afford it a few retrohales along their smoking journey. Like all Muestra de Saka ligas except the Unicorn they are packed in individual cedar coffins in a 7-ct box.”
Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust Muestra de Saka Krakatoa is now available at OGT Cigars. This beautifully packaged cigar is, as Saka stated, plced in individual coffins and shipped in boxes of seven. Don’t miss your opportunity to light up this robust liga of exceptional flavor and strength.
