From the fertile soils of Estelí, Nicaragua, a history marked by the passion and art of cigar making is born. Don Kiki Berger, a visionary and passionate cigar maker, founded a tradition based on quality, respect for the process, and love for cigar culture. His blends became a benchmark, his name a symbol. Today, that legacy lives on through the hands, vision, and heart of Karen Berger, who has not only preserved her husband’s heritage but has taken the brand to new heights, with the same commitment to craftsmanship.
Karen Berger doesn’t just run a cigar factory; she runs a dream. She’s one of the few female leaders in the premium cigar industry, and her presence has marked a new era for the brand: modern, sophisticated, yet true to its roots. Each product line—from K by Karen Berger, Don Kiki, to editions like the 25th Anniversary—is a statement of excellence, empowerment, and constant evolution. Through partnerships with figures like AJ Fernandez and the creation of unique blends, Karen proves that legacy isn’t preserved… it’s ignited.
