Don Emmanuel Cigars announced its expansion into Panama, continuing its international growth with an official market launch this week. The debut was marked by an event at Club Unión’s Muelle featuring a cigar-and-rum pairing with Ron Barceló and an appearance by founder Don Emmanuel, introducing the brand’s Anunnaki line to local consumers.
The company will be represented in Panama by Erick Villarreal, a banking professional and hospitality consultant with experience in Peru. The Anunnaki line, co-blended with master blender Eladio Díaz in the Dominican Republic, uses seven tobaccos including a Dominican wrapper and Mexican San Andrés binder. The Panama move follows recent expansion across the Caribbean, Latin America, and Africa, as the brand builds its global presence.
