Breaking News! Cuban Crafters "Kiki" Has Passed

Henry "Kiki" Berger



The Co-Owner of Cuban Crafters Brand
and the Cuban Crafters Cigar Shop in
Miami has passed away at the young age
of 56. The Padron Family released a
statement "We are sorry to have lost
Enrique "Kiki" Berger, a champion of the
cigar industry who was always happy to
help others despite his health issues.

By the sacrifice and selfless act of his wife, Karen, donating a kidney to him, his life was lengthened, giving us all additional time with this great man. The Padron Family is united in offering our condolences to Karen and the rest of his family as we pay our respects. We will never forget him, rest in peace."

Kiki entered the cigar business in the boom of 1996 and established himself very quickly setting up his operation down the street from Padron Cigars in Esteli Nicaragua. Kiki's operation doubled in size and helped other companies by producing their cigars while the tobacco business was hot. Kiki helped produce brands such as J.L. Salazar y Hermanos Reserva Especial, Cuban Crafters and Entubar.





Kiki was a respected man in the cigar industry for his devotion to the craft and not the quick buck. On your
next cigar think of the years of hard work that went
into producing a great cigar and think of Kiki. R.I.P.
