IPCPR 2016: Don Kiki Cigars

The 2016 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show was the debut of K by Karen Berger, a new cigar by the widow of Enrique “Kiki” Berger, who passed away in 2014.

The cigar is not only made exclusively with Nicaraguan tobacco, but is actually an Estelí puro, with all of the tobacco grown in that region and produced at Tabacalera Estelí. There are two versions that will be available in three box-pressed vitolas sold in boxes of 10, one with a habano wrapper and the other with a maduro wrapper.
