Trio of Jas Sum Kral Cigars Debuting This Weekend

This Saturday, Golde Leaf Cigar Lounge of Hobart, Ind. will host the 5th Ristefari, an event dedicated to Jas Sum Kral and name after its founder, Riste Ristevski.

As has been the case at previous Ristefaris, there will be an exclusive cigar made for the event. This year’s exclusive will be a Kralot Salomon, a 6 x 54 version of the Kralot blend, which uses a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over Nicaraguan binders from Omtepe and Somoto and Nicaraguan fillers from Condega, Estelí and Jalapa.

It will be limited to 100 bundles of 10 cigars, priced at $125 per bundle.

Jas Sum Kral will also debut its Fuck the FDA cigar. Ristevski has repeatedly declined to answer questions about the blend or size(s) of the cigar, though he has said that it will be offered in bundles priced at $89.99 during the event.

Finally, Jas Sum Kral will debut its new Goli Collection, a 24-vitola line split between three different blends. All are offered in bundles of 25 and share the same internal blend: an Indonesian binder over fillers from Estelí and Jalapa, Nicaragua.

Ristevski did not answer a question regarding where the wrappers come from.
