Why MDC stocks Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust
Some brands sell on marketing. Dunbarton sells on the blends. Steve Saka built his name as one of the most respected blenders in the industry, and the Dunbarton catalog - Sobremesa, Mi Querida, Sin Compromiso and the rest - backs it up stick after stick. When a knowledgeable guest scans your humidor, Dunbarton is one of the names that tells them you take the category seriously.
MDC carries 36 active Dunbarton SKUs, one of the deeper boutique positions on our line card. That depth means we can build a real Dunbarton program - not just a token box - matched to your crowd and your price points.
“Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust is in our standing rotation because the accounts we serve - from casinos to cigar bars - sell through it consistently. That's the only reason a brand stays on our line card.”

How to build a Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust program with MDC
The MDC approach to any brand is the same: start with a curated core rotation sized to your venue, prove sell-through, then layer in deeper SKU coverage as the account matures. For a typical hospitality account, a Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust program begins with 2–3 vitolas across 40–60 cigars of opening depth, paired with the other brands that complement your overall humidor structure.
Because Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust is one of the core workhorse brands in the category, it's almost always part of the MDC opening-proposal for any new account - the exact SKUs and depth vary by whether you're running a bar-led hospitality program, a dedicated cigar lounge, or a pro-shop display. Your rep builds the proposal fast once you apply, with real numbers keyed to your venue.
