Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Unveils the Highly Anticipated Sobremesa Solita “Red” – A Bold Evolution for Cigar Enthusiasts

Dunbarton, NH – February 21, 2025 – As a dedicated fan of Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust (DTT), it’s thrilling to announce that the eagerly awaited Sobremesa Solita “Red” will officially start shipping to select purveyors on Tuesday, February 25th, 2025. This release marks an exciting new chapter for one of the brand’s most beloved lines.

Sobremesa Solita “Red” is a meticulously crafted, limited-production cigar measuring 6.25 x 46 parejo, elegantly presented in Dunbarton’s iconic semi-boite nature dress boxes. This new liga amplifies the strength and complexity of the original blend, proudly featuring a lush, dark rosado Grade 1 Ecuador Habano wrapper, a robust San Andres Negro binder, and a rich core of four premium Nicaraguan and Seedleaf Pennsylvanian fillers.

Originally introduced in 2015 as Sobremesa, the core blend was rebranded as Sobremesa Solita in 2024 to distinguish it clearly from its milder Connecticut Shade counterpart, Sobremesa Brulée.

Dunbarton founder and renowned blender Steve Saka expressed his passion for this release, stating, “Sobremesa Solita holds a very special place in my heart. It was our debut cigar, foundational to our growth over the last decade, and remains a personal favorite due to its unparalleled depth and intricate flavor profile. I began refining this blend about three years ago, aiming to perfect what was already exceptional.”

Fans of Sobremesa can anticipate the “Red” to deliver the familiar and beloved notes of Dutch-pressed cocoa, exotic Indian Ceylon cinnamon, anise, and sweet clover honey—now intensified with a richer body and more profound depth.

“Creating the Sobremesa Solita ‘Red’ was a tough but necessary decision,” Saka added. “Replacing the popular Cervantes Fino was not taken lightly, but Dunbarton’s ethos has always been about offering cigars that I personally cherish. The ‘Red’ liga represents my commitment to quality, authenticity, and an uncompromising smoking experience.”

Sobremesa Solita “Red” is easily distinguishable by its classic Crown ring in a striking red hue. Available in elegant 13-count dress boxes, the cigar is priced at an MSRP of $17.95 each, or $233.50 per box. Given the initial limited production, enthusiasts are encouraged to seek out qualified retailers promptly.
