We are a team of experienced
entrepreneurs, aged between 35 and 60, who share one common goal - to produce
the finest hand-rolled cigars using the highest quality tobacco and leaf, sourced
from the best farmers and growers in Dominican Republic.
Having
travelled to the Dominican Republic (chosen for it’s distinctive flavor profile
and the ability to deliver consistency amongst blends) and spending 10 days
working from sunrise to sunset, visiting the tabacco fields, packaging
facilities and label factories, we are thrilled to now offer you the first four
Kiskeya cigar sizes to launch thus far.
The
Directors and Shareholders of Kiskeya have a truly international network of
world class friends, business associates and colleagues who have encouraged and
supported them throughout this process and journey.
We
have spent many memorable weeks working with a true master blender to create
the first rich and flavorsome Kiskeya blend that we hope you will enjoy as much
as we did.

The
tobacco leaves for Kiskeya cigars are harvested and aged using a
curing process that combines heat and shade to reduce sugar and water
content without causing the larger leaves to rot.
This
takes between 25 and 45 days, depending upon climatic conditions and the nature
of sheds used to store harvested tobacco.
A
slow fermentation follows, where
temperature and humidity are controlled to enhance flavour, aroma, and burning
characteristics while forestalling disintegration.
The
Kiskeya leaf will continue to be baled, inspected, un-baled, re-inspected, and
baled again during the aging cycle.
When
it has matured to manufacturer's specifications it is sorted for appearance and
overall quality, and used as filler or wrapper accordingly.
During
this process, leaves are continually moistened to prevent damage.
To this day quality
cigars are still handmade, Kiskeya`s included.
The Kiskeya blend stands apart from the rest with its use of rare tobacco from the South of Dominican Republic. Our cigars open with a creamy, perfumed aroma reminiscent of a lush forest, complemented by rich notes of coffee, dark chocolate, and wood. Expect hints of dried fruits and almonds, delivering a refreshing humidity without overwhelming your palate. With a clean smoke and no bitterness, it strikes a perfect balance.
