Drew Estate Blackened S84 Shade to Black Robusto
The Blackened S84 Shade to Black Robusto redefines what a Connecticut cigar can be. Crafted by Drew Estate in collaboration with James Hetfield and Rob Dietrich, this bold blend delivers a richer, more intense take on the traditionally mellow Connecticut profile.
Wrapped in a silky Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade leaf and built around a darker, maduro influenced core, the S84 offers a unique balance of creaminess and strength. Expect notes of toasted cedar, coffee, earth, and subtle spice, layered with a smooth, creamy texture that evolves throughout the smoke.
Medium to medium-full in strength, this Robusto starts with a touch of pepper before settling into a balanced profile of wood, nuts, and light sweetness, finishing with a slightly drier, more robust character.
Perfect for smokers who want the smoothness of a Connecticut with added depth and attitude, the Blackened S84 stands out as a modern, flavourful everyday cigar.
DREW ESTATE
The Drew Estate story is one of daring, heartbreak & success but, most of all, one of passion for cigars and the country of Nicaragua, where we have been making cigars since 1996.
Jonathan Drew & Marvin Samel are not your average cigar makers, their story does not start in Cuba, or with fathers in the cigar business. It started with a dream, and through their can-do spirit and never-say-die attitude made Drew Estate one of the premier cigar manufacturers on the planet. The two frat brothers from New York started out small…. Small, as in a 16 square foot retail kiosk in the World Trade Center in NYC.
In late 1998, Jonathan Drew moved to Esteli, Nicaragua with the hopes of starting a rebirth in the cigar world. With a handful of rollers and an even smaller handful of money, the story of “That Crazy Gringo” began.
