Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust has only been in business since 2015, but is headed by Steve Saka, former President and CEO of Drew Estates. He is credited for creating the Liga Privada, one of Drew Estate’s best and most popular cigars. As mentioned in the video, Dunbarton has not gained widespread local cigar retail distribution, but it is available from many online sellers. Some points about this video: – I pronounced Sobremesa (Soh-bra-maaza) correctly twice, and as the video progresses (in real time, the video was shot over more than an hour) my pronunciation got more and more incorrect.
– As mentioned in the video, Sobremesa is a Spanish term describing sitting with friends and family after a big meal, relaxing and talking.
– There is also a “Sobremesa Brulee Blue” which is the same tobacco as the one smoked in the video, but aged one year after manufacture.
