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 […]
What started as an exclusive project by Steve Saka has now expanded nationwide. The Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Red Meat Lovers is here at OGT Cigars. Originally, this cigar was sold only at Smoke Inn, as a private blend for that retailer. However, it has expanded and grown in popularity so much that Saka has […]

Steve Saka’s first love, or should I say his OG Mi Querida, has returned to Oak Glen Tobacconist. It has a few names, but perhaps my favorite is ‘SakaKhan!’ Released in only one size, the Mi Querida Black Corona Doble first became available last year after the annual PCA trade show.

It’s back! After a long-awaited return, one of Steve Saka’s choice blends returns in an all new size! Basically, how the industry works is that no matter how loved or precious blends are, tobacco shortages and complications are always a factor. And, in the words of Hemingway, “Sometimes you have to kill your darlings.” Unfortunately, […]

I would describe the portfolio as attention to detail, flavor, and experience. Steve Saka, formal employee of Drew Estate cigars, left DE to create his own brand. You might be familiar […]
This cigar has been spoken about for nearly two years. Steve Saka said, “Personally, I am uber-excited to share this liga with world as it is one of my best creations to date and one that I believe customers will truly love.” Better than trying to explain the magnitude of this cigar myself, it’s best […]
The Sobremesa fits very interestingly in the Steve Saka portfolio. While you have the Sobremesa Brulee or the Brulee Blue landing at the mild, creamy side, and the Qi Querida and Triqui Traca on the heavy, full side, the Sobremesa comes in at a medium to medium-plus.

There are bold cigars and then there are BOLD cigars. This particular Maduro is bold while being incredibly balanced. Mi Querida Triqui Traca (pronounced “me kay-ree-dah tree-kee trah-ka”) uses a Connecticut Broadleaf No. 1 grade dark leaf wrapped around a Nicaraguan Binder and multiple country fillers. The result is a tasty, full-flavored, full-bodied, medium-plus to […]

If you have ever enjoyed the packaging and unique experience a Liga Privada can offer, then you have enjoyed Steve’s handy work. Now several years […]
