“I want to be remembered for my Savannah collection,” says Lak. “I started in Sag Harbor in the Hamptons with materiel support from my late friend the late Ms Adina Azarian by recreating the “Enigma” Segar which to this day is the most expensive cigar our factory manufactures yet we have not raised the price of that vitola once in a decade,” he added. 

The Savannah Rivers Cigar line is dubbed the “Bordeaux of Cigars” which took 10 years to conceive and make and hence its exclusivity. 

The line is as follows: 

The Hostess- Sumatra wrapper infused with Rum

Bayou- Connecticut wrapper

Antebellum - San Andres wrapper

Havana- Havana wrapper

All 4 are made in the factory in Tamboril, the cigar capital of the world, in the Dominican Republic. 

A special set of 25 containing all 4 cigars commemorating his birthday and the company’s milestone will be available starting Oct. 2 online which also happens to be the birthday of Mahatma Gandhi. They can be pre-ordered online for $175 per set. To see videos and pictures please visit SavannahRiverCigars on Instagram. 

The Savannah collection will officially be released to the Georgia market once local licensing and permits to sell locally are approved. Learn more by visiting SavannahRiverCigars.com. 

More details on all the other cigars can be found on SagHarborCigars.com and our private labeling website CigarVillas.com. Both have a presence on Instagram as well.
