Capadura Cigars: Roots and Passion
In North Rhine-Westphalia, cities are often so close together that the next town is practically just around the corner. For us in Düsseldorf, it’s only a short hop to our neighboring city of Wuppertal. This historic industrial city in the Bergisches Land is the birthplace of Oskar Nausch. Many years ago, however, he was drawn to the Dominican Republic. Whether it was Wuppertal’s famously rainy weather or his sense of adventure that lured him to the Caribbean remains his secret.
Don Esteban – A Successful Brand with Character
In Santiago de los Caballeros, the second-largest city in the Dominican Republic, Oskar runs the Tabacalera "Don Esteban." Here, where the rain is pleasantly warm, exceptional cigars are crafted under his leadership, captivating enthusiasts around the globe.

Our collaboration with Oskar and his team has now lasted for almost 20 years. This close partnership and shared vision have been instrumental in establishing the Samana brand.
Capadura Cigars: Characterful Indulgence
The Capadura offers a well-balanced flavor that delights fans of medium-bodied cigars. Even before its success in Germany, it had gained recognition worldwide – a success story that comes as no surprise. The Brazilian tobacco in its filler adds a distinctive note that harmonizes perfectly with the other flavors.
