Georgia’s connection to aromatic Oriental tobacco dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries, rooted along the Black Sea coast. Highly prized for their refined aroma, historic varieties like Samsun, Trabzon, and Dubek once formed the backbone of the era's finest blends.
We have revived this legacy.
The Heritage of Georgian Oriental Tobacco
Imeri LLC, a proud member of the Mardi Holding family, is Georgia’s sole producer of premium, handcrafted cigars made from authentic Georgian Oriental tobacco.
Our journey began in 2007 in the highlands of Adjara, specifically the Keda region. There, we discovered that the local terroir imparts a remarkably rich, aromatic profile to the leaf—one that cannot be replicated anywhere else. To perfect our blend, we partnered with the legendary Indonesian factory Taru Martani 1918. In 2009, an international panel of tobacco experts confirmed our discovery: our signature "Keda" leaf pairs seamlessly with Indonesian tobacco, creating an unparalleled flavor profile.
A cigar crafted from Oriental tobacco is a true rarity. Our signature blend—90% Georgian and 10% Indonesian—is entirely unique. Since 2014, we have been crafting 21 varieties of handmade cigars and cigarillos across three distinct lines:
* Mild Line
* Classic Line
* Reserve Line
Our expertise goes beyond traditional cigars. We produce a premium Shisha tobacco line featuring over 15 flavors, built entirely on a pure Oriental tobacco base—a product with no true equivalent on the global market.
From the Caucasus Mountains to connoisseurs worldwide.
