Jas Sum Kral came back to IPCPR 2018 after a year away from the trade show. Riste Ristevski, owner of JSK, told us about what’s coming out of his new factory.

Jas Sum Kral was started a few years ago, and I was actually the first person to review the Red Knight blend. The company was formerly sold almost exclusively online. It had a presence in a very limited number of shops across the globe, but this year, Riste decided to shut down his direct-to-consumer sales and drum up business with the B&M retailers.

JSK cigars were originally rolled at Tabacalera NOA, but complications resulted in a move of all production to Tabacalera de Aragon.
