RoMa Craft Tobac Baka Bantu

Blind Man's Puff · Feb 24, 2020 · November 2019

Skip Martin of RoMa Craft announced the new Baka line on social media in March of 2019. He showed it off at the IPCPR trade show in Las Vegas that July, and it shipped in October. The line will come in 7 sizes total, with one new size being released each year. The first size to ship was the Bantu, a 4 x 52 Rothschild. The next to ship will be Acephalous 5 x 56. While this is a regular production cigar, it will be in limited quantities every year. Baka is the first completely new line from RoMa Craft since the Wunder Lust, which wasn’t available in the U.S. This cigar was reviewed blind (no bands) by a panel of at least 4 reviewers. They did not know what they were smoking beforehand. The scores are an average of all the reviewers' scores with outliers removed. All of our cigars reviewed are shipped to the panelists with Boveda packs to ensure optimal smoking experience. The sizes in the line are Pygmy 4 x 46, Bantu 4 x 52, Ota Benga 4 1/2 x 60, Poki 5 x 50, Acephalous 5 x 56, Jengi 5 3/4 x 46, Hunter Gatherer 6 x 54. All come in boxes of 24 except the Pygmy is comes in boxes of 30. The blend uses a Cameroon wrapper with undisclosed binder and filler. The name Baka refers to the Baku people, a small ethnic group living in Cameroon and the surrounding countries. The cigar has been hard to find so far and only 1,000 boxes were planned for this year. Skip Martin describes it as a small annual release.

RoMa Craft Baka Hunter Gatherer

Developing Palates · Oct 28, 2022 · June 2021

The review of the RoMa Craft Baka Hunter Gatherer was consistent with the sample I smoked years ago before the trade show. The flavors are nuanced, layered and balanced, and deliver engagement through the entire review. I'd happily continue to smoke these on the regular, especially given that the price point is reasonable for a cigar with a Cameroon wrapper.
