About

The Kafie's - Century long traditions in Central America,

​     Our family  is one that has undergone incredible socio-cultural transformation the past century.  Our roots show travels from England in 1901 to the Americas. Don Chuckri Kafie first arrived to Central America at the turn of the 20th Century. La Union, El Salvador became home to our ancestors. It is there where the family set its first roots in Central America.  Decades later, in search for further opportunities, my grandfather and family relocated to Tegucigalpa, Honduras.  Our span in Central America exceeds an entire century.  
​
Each member of our ever growing family can best be described as being very eccentric, talented, motivated, and hard working.  The men and women are traditionally very passionate about family, religion, and work.  We are comprised of Empressarios (business men/women), Doctors, Lawyers, Architects, Engineers, Artists, Song Writers, Poets, and much more.  Some of our cousins here in the United States proudly serve in different branches of the military.

In the 70's,  my father Don Fernando ✝ (the youngest, and pictured on the left corner) and mother brought our young family to live in the United States.  My parents always had dreams of raising their children in this great country.  These dreams became a reality, and because of them their grandchildren are now enjoying the freedoms, rights, and liberties that we all have here.  It is for this reason that I dedicate our first blend to the most influential Kafie in my life, my dad Don Fernando Kafie.   His journey to the United States was a difficult one, full of hard work and sacrifice. The things that make life worth living.  
​
​​The past 3 generations all shared one thing in common, a love for fine cigars. This brand represents the historical influence that "puro's" have had on our daily lives.   Excellence takes time and patience to achieve. It is for this reason, that all of our tobaccos are aged for a minimum of 5-6 years.  KAFIE  1901 Cigars was created for those that are looking for that classic, well aged, cigar experience.  The Don Fernando "Maduro" will be our first blend in the line up.  
​
As a boutique line, we do not mass produce any single blend.  Our goal is to focus on quality, rather than quantity.   We hope you enjoy our cigars, as much as we have enjoyed creating them.
