The King of Kings Broadleaf line is growing. At the 2014 IPCPR Trade Show, Kings Cigars announced the King of Kings Broadleaf line would be adding four additional vitolas – bringing the line to five sizes.
The King of Kings Broadleaf line was launched earlier this year and became the company’s fourth blend. It was designed to be a maduro counterpart to the King of Kings Habano line. It was originally released in a 6 x 64 soft box-pressed known a Cuadrado. The four line extensions add more traditional sizes into this line – this includes a Robusto, Toro, Churchill, and Torpedo.
Kings Cigars is a three+ year project started by Anwar Mithavayani and Pete Tyndale. The company has two factories – one in Santiago, Dominican Republic and the other in Esteli, Nicaragua. From the company web-site, Mithavayani is the Director of Sales while Tyndale is listed as the Master Blender.
