Alula’s Triumph – The General’s Legacy
A Tribute to Ras Alula Engida (1845–1897)
Honoring Ethiopia’s fearless defender and master strategist, Alula’s Triumph embodies strength, courage, and heritage. Known as The General and celebrated as the Lion of Ethiopia, Ras Alula’s leadership at the Battle of Dogali in 1887 remains a symbol of victory and pride.
Each cigar is handcrafted with the finest tobaccos, reflecting his indomitable spirit. Wrapped in bold, earthy tones that mirror Ethiopia’s rugged landscape, Alula’s Triumph delivers a smooth, commanding smoke with notes of spice, cedar, and richness that deepen with every draw.
Six symbolic emblems—The Lion, Crossed Sword and Shield, War Horn, Horse, David Cross, and Mountains—represent his valor, faith, and devotion to his homeland. From Gundet to Dogali, every puff is a salute to resilience and triumph.
