Our Story

Over the Years

2013

Kafie 1901 Don Fernando(D.F.) Maduro

The cigar was created to commemorate the life and legacy of Don Fernando Kafie, the later father of Dr. Gaby Kafie. The life of my father was bold, full of character, flavorful, and exciting. In his 3 children he leaves behing a legacy that is a reflection of the hard work and sacrifices he made to make sure the next generation succeeds. With that said, this cigar was built using tobaccos that would be a reflection of the life of Don Fernando. The cigar is wrapped with a Nicaraguan Habano maduro that is full of character, and filled with tobaccos that balance out the boldness with rich flavors and strength. The highlight of this blend is the rare Dominican Andullo tobacco which is found in the filler. This smoking experience is a journey like no other. Enjoy.

Kafie 1901 Connecticut

Since 2014 this blend has beeen one of our best selling cigar lines, surpassing any other dark wrapped cigar in our portolio. This blend is true to a high quality well balanced and flavorful connecticut cigar. We are using the finest wrapper leaf from Ecuador, with exquisite filler tobaccos from highly sought after regions in the Dominican Republic. The cigar features a mild spice on the front of the palatte with notes of cream, cinammon, and vanilla to accent the experience. A wonderful cigar any time of day, specially when paired with a cup of coffee or a morning tea. The retrohale is truly a magical experience with this blend as it is mildly sharp, delivering a great aroma and flavor notes. The pride and joy of the family, a daily smoke for anyone looking for that special cigar experience.

2016
Kafie 1901 San Andres

The Kafie 1901 San Andres cigar was a hit since inception. Launched in the Spring of 2016, this cigar has developed a following of its own. Originally it came as a box pressed presentation, now it is feautred in parejo in order to pack more flavor and allow for a longer burn. The cigar features a 5 years aged Mexican San Andres wrapper that is double fermented to ensure bold flavors, with a clean finish. The flavors are full, with notes of coffee, cocoa, molasses, and a beautiful sharp and clean strength on the retrohale. White better notes, and very forward on the palatte. Really allows your taste buds to kick in to a whole new level. This is a cigar that was nominated Best Brand Honduras in 2020 by Cigar Journal Magazine. Now it’s being made under the supervision of the best team at La Aurora Cigar Factory.
