Dunbarton Muestra de Saka Unicorn

Saka's Crowning Achievement.

Oh boy, this is it. The pinnacle of Steve Saka's blending talents. If you're looking for a budget-priced knockaround stick, keep looking, my friend. But if you want to treat yourself, and you're looking for one of the finest cigars money can buy, your search is over. The Muestra de Saka Unicorn is the result of an experiment by Saka to see what would happen if no expense or effort whatsoever was spared in the creation of an ultra-premium limited-release cigar. The $100 per cigar price tag may sound a little steep, but once you get one of these beauties in your hand, you won't regret a single penny.

For the blend, Saka sorted through 6000 pounds of Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper and Nicaraguan filler, with only one percent being deemed high enough quality to make it into the finished product. The double perfecto shape was achieved by hardwood molds hand-cut by Saka himself, and production of the cigars themselves was entrusted to just one buncher-roller duo in the entire factory. Its rare that a cigar with such a high price point has a flavor profile good enough to match, but the Muestra de Saka Unicorn delivers in spades. pumping out an unbelievably complex yet medium-bodied profile with notes of cocoa, espresso, and a pleasant caramel sweetness supporting a core of roasted nuts, fresh-baked bread, and a touch of black pepper. The cost of admission is high, but with production limited to just 1000 cigars, you'll be kicking yourself if you miss your chance to pick yourself up a true Unicorn.
