With their big move to La Aurora Cigars Factory, Kafie Cigars has decided to undergo a total rebranding of their 4 core lines as well as their new Kafie 1901 Serie L Natural which is described in full detail below.

Kafie 1901 DF Maduro (Released in 2013)
Kafie 1901 Connecticut (Released in 2014)
Kafie 1901 Sumatra (Released in 2015)
Kafie 1901 San Andres (Released in 2016)
Kafie 1901 Serie L Natural (To be released next month).

Over the past 2 years Gaby Kafie has been working on a very special project. The Kafie 1901 Serie L Natural. As you may know, in November of 2021 Kafie closed his factory Tabacalera G. Kafie y Cia in Danli, Honduras and moved all cigar production to La Aurora S.A. in order to be able to continue to work on what I call dream blends. The holy grail of all blends is a good “PURO”. Kafie dedicated the past 3 years of his life towards achieving this goal.

Kafie 1901’s new blend which was named Serie L (Roman Numeral for 50) Natural was created to commemorate Gaby Kafie’s 50th birthday, and (near) decade long investment in the premium cigar industry. Since inception, Kafie Cigars has been focused on making blends which feature

tobaccos from many countries. Typically 1 cigar blend has tobaccos from multiple countries. Our Kafie 1901 Serie L Natural on the other hand is a 100% Dominican Puro, a blend which was only made possible through the guidance of La Aurora’s head master blender Mr. Manuel Inoa. This is a cigar that Kafie has been wanting to make for over 5 years, it has finally come to life and such a quality blend was only possible in the Dominican Republic. This will be a permanent addition to the Kafie 1901 Cigars portfolio. Kafie 1901 Premium Cigar Core line now consists of 5 blends, each unique in their own way.

The wrapper of the Kafie 1901 Serie L Natural is a 5-year aged Corojo from the Cibao Valley, the binder and filler are also comprised of tobaccos from the Cibao Valley in the Dominican Republic. The cigar is medium to full bodied, complex, and has perfect balance throughout. Flavour notes impart wood, leather, notes of almond, honey, floral notes, sweet but with an undertone of bitter cocoa elegance. This is a great 100% Dominican Cigar.

This cigar, as with Kafie 1901’s entire core line will come in Cuban style dress style boxes which features the newly redesigned Kafie 1901 branding. The cigar box is adorned with images of Gaby Kafie’s grandparents (Don Shucri & Doña Regina Kafie) tracing his roots to Central America and Honduras dating back to 1901. The story is one of immigrants, in search of the finest places, people, talent, and raw materials. 120 years later Gaby Kafie finds himself in the same quest, however very focused on tobacco. The ship featured on the artwork is a steam ship named the Athenas that used to travel from England to New York and then to Central America during that era. Kafie 1901 tells a real story about the Kafie family. A story which continues to this day and Gaby Kafie am extremely proud to represent

All of Kafie 1901 premium cigars are now being made at La Aurora Cigars Factory. Each cigar box will come stamped with the factory logo on the bottom for identification purposes. Furthermore, each cigar box seal will include the Pro-Cigar Festival participating factory seal which is a tamper-proof sticker that contains a specific serial number for each box. Kafie currently export to 46 countries and this will guarantee their distribution partners will receive authentic Kafie 1901 Cigars.

Initial offerings for the Kafie 1901 Serie L Natural include  20 count box Robusto and a
20 count box Toro 5.75 x 54. This winter (December 15, 2022) Kafie will be launching 3 other sizes

Kafie 1901’s other core lines will also be arriving at the same time as the Kafie 1901 Serie L Natural.  Some blends contain new exotic tobaccos like Andullo tobacco and Cameroon tobacco, both of which come at a premium. All information will be available on www.kafie1901.com in the weeks to come. Kafie 1901 core blends were maintained and improved at La Aurora with access to finer and more well aged tobaccos. Connoisseurs will be pleased with the new products across the board.
