Dalay Istanbul

Dalay Istanbul was one of Dalay Istanbul's first lines to debut in the US (as the company primarily operates in Germany), partnering with Luciano Cigars for distribution. The cigar pays tribute to company owner, Salih Dalay, and his Turkish heritage. This is evidenced in both the packaging and blend. In terms of the former, the cigars feature original artwork by Turkish artist Hasan Kale, who is known as the “Turkish Microangelo” for his work in miniature art. The recipe includes Turkish tobacco in the filler, being joined by Dominican and Kentucky air-cured leaves. This unique blend is secured in a Pennsylvanian binder and finished with an Ecuadorian Corojo '99 wrapper.
