Blackened Cigars by Drew Estate S84 Shade to Black is a follow-up to the popular M81 cigar. The S84 Shade to Black uses the same USA Connecticut Broadleaf binder and Nicaraguan Maduro and Pennsylvania Broadleaf Maduro filler leaves as the M81 only this time its covered by a smooth Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper. By swapping out the wrapper, the S84 Shade to Black offers a smooth, nuanced, and deliciously inviting smoking journey. The “S” in the name refers to the cigar’s shade wrapper, the “84” is the year Metallica released their “Ride the Lightning” album and “Shade to Black” is a reference to “Fade to Black” a song on the album. Blackened Cigars is a collaboration between three top-tier artisans from three truly diverse fields who share an immense passion for cigars: James Hetfield, singer/songwriter/guitarist of the metal band Metallica, along with Rob Dietrich, master distiller and blender of Blackened Whiskey, and Johnathan Drew, globally recognized cigar crafter and founder/president of Drew Estate.

disappointing - expected more from a Drew Estate cigar
Jason Bunting · Corona · Mon Nov 02
Quite enjoyed this one, unexpectedly. I wasn't sure about it, generally preferring darker flavors, but it was tasty all the way down, burn was great and... yeah. Going to order a couple more and next time pair it with some coffee. Gave me a nice buzz on my bike ride. :D
Sean Daly · Corona · Fri Oct 30
Got this one for a tighter draw. I felt the toro version burned hot. I haven't had the darker wrapper version, but love the flavor and nicotine strength of this cigar (not too much)
AUNDRE EDWARDS · Corona Doble · Tue Oct 20
Had this one during a round of golf. Great burn and draw .
Thomas Walsh · Corona Doble · Mon Sep 21
This was a nice mild smoke but the burn was a little off as well as the taste a little on the weak side.
Alex Sabina · Corona Doble · Wed Sep 02
Most of the blackened’s I’ve tried have left me unimpressed. This one was the exception. I’ll be coming back for more.
Luke · Corona Doble · Mon Aug 24
I left this in the humidor for a year prior to smoking. Vanilla, brown sugar, liquorice and some slight pepper on the palate. Strong pepper then vanilla bean in waves, custard, churros and a bit of milk chocolate on the retrohale. Bit harsh towards the very end but that was it. Draw and ash were outstanding.
Robert Welker · Toro · Thu Jun 25
A good quality cigar that I wanted to try to see what Drew and James Hetfield had created and I liked it. Would most likely buy another one of these
S D · Robusto · Mon Jun 22
Savory earth and integrated pepper overwhelmed by mineral-rich hay and prolonged Connecticut dominance, lacking smoothness usually found in this style.
