Karen Berger

Karen Berger owns and leads Karen Berger Cigars in Estelí, continuing the Don Kiki family operation. The company farms and rolls at Tabacalera Estelí rather than shopping anonymous contract rooms.

She is a grower-manufacturer in a town dominated by larger corporate and mega-family names. The cigars are her family's. The factory is in Estelí. She is not STG and not a U.S. brand on someone else's floor.
