Cigar News: Don Emmanuel Cigars To Showcase Anunnake Enki Figurado At Intertabac 2026

Don Emmanuel Cigars announces Enki, a new 6 x 54 figurado and the fourth vitola in its Anunnaki line, which will be showcased at InterTabac 2026, September 15–17 at Messe Dortmund in Dortmund, Germany.

The introduction comes amid growing recognition for Anunnaki, with Anunnaki Anu recently named to Robb Report’s prestigious 2026 Best of the Best and Anunnaki selected as a finalist for Best Dominican Cigar of 2026 at the Cigar Journal Cigar Trophy Awards.

Enki expands the Anunnaki line with a distinctive figurado format featuring two unique construction details. The cigar’s cap is finished in a “cabeza tumbada” style, designed to enhance the smoking experience, while its closed foot allows the smoker to initially experience the aroma and flavor of the wrapper as the cigar is lit. The closed foot also provides an added layer of protection for those who prefer to light a cigar while holding it directly in the mouth.

Co-Founder and Creator, Emmanuel stated:

“With Enki, we wanted to introduce a format that brings another dimension to the Anunnaki experience while remaining completely connected to the philosophy behind the line, Every detail has a purpose, from the shape and construction to the name itself. InterTabac gives us an opportunity to share Enki with the international cigar community and continue telling the story we began with Anunnaki.”

The name Enki continues the Sumerian mythology that inspired the Anunnaki line. In the story, Enki is the son of Anu and Ki and is regarded as the Sumerian god of humanity. According to the Anunnaki mythology that inspires the brand, Enki was sent to Earth with the mission of extracting gold.  The introduction of Enki therefore continues a story already expressed through the names and symbolism of the Anunnaki portfolio.

Enki utilizes the same seven-tobacco blend as the existing Anunnaki line, co-blended by Don Emmanuel and legendary Master Blender Eladio Díaz and produced at Tabacalera Díaz Cabrera in the Dominican Republic. Rather than introducing a new blend, the 6 x 54 figurado explores how a distinctive new format and construction can create another expression of the Anunnaki smoking experience.

Anunnaki Enki will be showcased alongside the Don Emmanuel Cigars portfolio at InterTabac 2026, taking place September 15–17 at Messe Dortmund in Dortmund, Germany.
