Birthdays, anniversaries, and family heritage are are of the highest importance within the premium cigar space; and for good reason, as the industry is known for its respect for tradition and the value placed on honest relationships. We at Smoke Inn Cigars are no different, which is why we have pulled out all the stops to introduce The Raji cigar in celebration of our milestone 25th anniversary in 2022.
This is a special project, not simply for the sake of an anniversary, but a tribute to Raji Dababneh, father of Smoke Inn owner and founder, Abe Dababneh. Setting out to craft a smoking experience capable of delivering on such high significance, Abe partnered with Drew Estate Master Blender, Willy Herrera, and his family's famed El Titan de Bronze factory. This boutique operation is nestled within Miami's Little Havana neighborhood on the historic Calle Ocho street, where the likes of Don Pepín García and Ernesto Perez-Carrillo started their careers.
At El Titan de Bronze, only the most skilled (category 9) torcedores are employed. Additionally, the factory utilizes authentic Cuban techniques, such as entubado bunching and triple-cap heads. The Smoke Inn 25th Anniversary The Raji cigar was blended by Willy Herrera himself, with a single torcedor crafting all 15,000 cigars (1,500 boxes of 10) for this limited-edition run. As such, cigar enthusiasts can expect a high-caliber smoking experience worthy of the occasion, delivering a medium-bodied profile and layered complexities of toasted oak, bittersweet espresso, semi-sweet chocolate, and sweet marzipan through the finish.
Country of Orgin : USA
Strength : Medium-Full

*Please note that all SKUs have two product lines. The top line is the box/bundle count. The second line is less than a box/bundle count and will be shipped as loose cigars in a humidified bag.

Man this was a fantastic collaboration cigar. Such a great occasion too. The ashtray was classy and I use it a lot so it was a great addition. The cigar is fantastic for a 45-60 minute smoke sesh. For me I really get the notes of cocoa so it feels like I’m smoking dessert. Highly recommend.

Pepper, chocolate, cream and licorice?? This cigar is a stunner! While I do enjoy most of Willie Herrera stuff and have had the Miami before, this cigar totally impressed me. Like most things you find in Miami, there is no cut in this cigar! All powerful flavors that blend together in some kind of salsa dance that leaves you wanting more. This is my favorite cigar to gift cigar smoking friends who are familiar with Drew Estates, and love to hear the feedback on "how do I get more?" At the time of writing there are still some available and I don't know how, but if you enjoy challenging your taste buds to pick out the flavors, give the Raji a try before its too late!

This is a great Herrera cigar rolled at El Titan de bronze. Rich earthy dark coffee flavor. Well constructed. First couple did have some mild burn issues but nothing too bad that I could not fix it and get it to smoke. The ashtray that comes with this is epic and recommend that package if the ashtray is still available.

Willy Herrera's blending style shows exceedinly well with this release. Cocoa and Coffee and a subtle sweetness along with some woodsy notes make this an excellent choice.

I haven’t been able to smoke for a week but while I was at the Mothership I chose this Herrera Esteli Raji blend in honor of Honest Abe Dababneh Dad . This was a Great smoke full of flavor. I noted a spiciness, and woody flavor to begin. At finish it was cedar and pepper but smooth smoke , burning evenly to the Nub . Great Cigar from Start to Finish !

Medium bodied and complex with lovely spicy leather notes and hints of dark fruit. I was really surprised by this blend and the degree to which it surpasses the core Herrera Esteli. Awesome!
