Mi Querida Black Papasaka

Prepare to embark on a journey that pays homage to the rich history and timeless allure of the broadleaf puros. Mi Querida Black Papasaka is the ultimate expression of Dunbarton’s family of broadleaf ligas and a deeply personal testament to my unwavering passion for cigars. With over three decades of experience in the industry, I have dedicated myself to crafting a cigar that encapsulates the essence of what ignited my love affair with cigars in the first place.

It was many years ago when Steve Saka first encountered the captivating broadleaf puros meticulously crafted by Sr. Frank Llaneza and Sr. Estelo Padron at the iconic Honduran-American Tobacco, S.A. (HATSA) factory in Cofradia, Honduras. While they may have appeared slightly rough and unrefined by today’s standards, their cigars possessed an explosion of flavors that left a lasting impression on me. The earthy, sweet, and full-bodied characteristics of these cigars were simply intoxicating, guiding me like a “North Star” as I embarked on my own cigar-making journey.

“Black” represents the culmination of this distinct blend within our esteemed Mi Querida family of puros. It remains true to the soul of its predecessors while introducing a carefully selected grade of Honduran-grown Habano Seed tripa to elevate the smoking experience even further. This meticulous blend seeks to recreate the very essence of those early years that captivated me, devoid of commercial constraints or the need to produce cigars on a large scale to sustain a factory.

Only the finest materials are employed in the creation of Mi Querida Black Papasaka. The tripas undergo an exhaustive process to ensure their optimal creaminess, while the dark Connecticut-grown Broadleaf capas are meticulously sourced, with acute attention paid to their craftsmanship. The result is a cigar that embodies robustness, richness, and an indulgent satisfaction that surpasses expectations.
