Sobremesa Brulee STFU 5-Cigar Sampler

When the Sobremesa Brulee was first released, a lot of cigar aficionados were convinced that it had a sweet tip. Master cigar crafter Steve Saka insisted that it didn’t, but the controversy raged on. In order to put the argument to rest, Saka created the STFU 5-Cigar Sampler. This very limited release sampler contains at least one unsweetened tip version of the Sobremesa Brulee, a single sweetened tip version as well as a double sweetened tip version. Saka isn’t saying which cigars have the sweetened tip and which have the unsweetened tip. He’s leaving it up to you to decide. For most folks, STFU is an expletive laden four-letter acronym. For Steve it means, “Saka’s Taste For U’rself!!!”

Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

• Cigar Wrapper
  Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade

  The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
  Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. This climate allows tobacco growers to grow Connecticut-seed wrapper in the shade without shade cloths, resulting in more economical wrapper.
• Cigar Binder
  Mexico

  The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
• Cigar Filler
  Nicaragua

  Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
