Boutique brand co-blended by Don Emmanuel and Master Blender Eladio Díaz continues its international growth

Miami, FL – December 3, 2025- Don Emmanuel Cigars, the boutique premium cigar brand founded by Brazilian tobacco devotee Don Emmanuel, is proud to announce its expansion into new international markets, including the Caribbean region, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, and Puerto Rico.

This milestone marks a meaningful step in the brand’s evolution, reflecting growing attention for its debut line, Anunnaki, co-blended by Don Emmanuel and legendary Master Blender Eladio Díaz at Tabacalera Díaz Cabrera in the Dominican Republic.

“Expanding into these markets is a very meaningful moment for us,” said Don Emmanuel, Founder and Creator. “Each of these regions has a rich cigar culture and a deep appreciation for craftsmanship. Bringing our vision, our blend, and our philosophy to more smokers across the Caribbean and Latin America reinforces what we believe in: cigars that celebrate energy, balance, and connection.”

Born in São Paulo, Brazil, Don Emmanuel carries a deep family connection to tobacco. His passion was first sparked by his grandmother, who worked for Suerdieck, once the largest cigar manufacturer in the world. What began as childhood fascination grew into a lifelong devotion: over more than two decades, he studied tobacco intimately, visiting factories and plantations across Latin America, learning directly from respected master blenders, and shaping a creative philosophy inspired by ancient cultures and the elemental nature of the leaf.

This personal approach became central to the creation of Anunnaki, which Emmanuel blended in partnership with Eladio Díaz — combining his own sensory vision and thematic inspiration with Díaz’s unparalleled technical experience. The result is a cigar crafted with seven distinct tobaccos, including a rare Dominican wrapper and a Mexican San Andrés Negro binder, celebrated for its balance, evolution, and expressive flavor journey.

With availability now expanding into the Caribbean, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, and Puerto Rico, Don Emmanuel Cigars continues its mission of reaching new audiences while strengthening relationships with markets that value artisanal production, premium sourcing, and meaningful storytelling.

All three vitolas of the Anunnaki line — Anu (6 x 52 Toro), Ki (5 x 50 Robusto), and Corona Fina (4 x 38, Tin of 5) – will be made available in these regions.
