The Blackened M81 Cigars by Drew Estate is the dream-come-to-life creation of three top-tier artisans from three very 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, cigar crafter and founder/president of Drew Estate, teamed up create this potent and flavor packed cigar. It took the trio two years to develop the blend, which they consider an expression of passion. The cigar is composed of a Mexican San Andres wrapper draped over a USA Connecticut Broadleaf binder and a filler composed of Nicaraguan and USA Pennsylvania leaves. This is one dark and flavorful cigar. As a nod to the band Metallica, the “M81” stands for Metallica and 1981, which is the year the band was formed. “Blackened” is the name of a song from the band’s “And Justice for All” album, which was released in 1988.

Are you feeling a bit nostalgic for the early days of the Internet and online forums? Then check out Drew Estate’s newest release, the BOTL (Brothers of the Leaf) and get ready to be transported to a time when it was cool to say, “Back in the day”. BOTL.org was one of the first online communities for cigar aficionados to discuss cigars (and it still is). Think of it as a virtual herf session. To honor them, Drew Estate has produced the BOTL cigar. This medium-strength premium cigar sports a bold, dark USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper that is draped over an Ecuadorian Connecticut binder, which houses Nicaraguan fillers to produce a memorable stick that is rich in flavor and aroma.

Herrera Esteli Miami is a return to the roots for Willy Herrera, master blender for Drew Estate, who decided to make his new limited edition blend at his family's famous El Titan de Bronze factory in Miami, Florida. The blend boasts an Ecuadorian Habano Oscuro wrapper with Ecuadorian Sumatra binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. The Herrera Esteli Miami is the only Herrera Esteli cigar made in the USA.

Herrera Esteli Norteno is the long awaited release by Drew Estate with master blender Willy Herrera. A sequel of sorts to the popular Herrera Esteli cigar, which earned a spot in 2013's Top 25 Cigars of the Year, the Norteno is a dark, spicy cigar made with a Mexican San Andres wrapper. The band design features the Guardabarranco, the national bird of Nicaragua, the country where the cigar is produced. Tobacco from Nicaragua also makes up the filler, with a Honduran binder. This earthy, peppery, sweet offering by Drew Estate burns and draws perfectly, offering medium to full body and strength.

A truly exceptional traditional cigar blended exclusively for "El Jefe", Drew Estate's president and cigar connoisseur Steve Saka, this "liga privada" or "private blend" has been aged for a full year before being offered for sale. No expense has been spared to create this robust, earthy and rich espresso of a smoke. Very satisfying. Liga Privada No. 9 Appointed Merchant

The Liga Undercrown 10 celebrates the tenth anniversary of a cigar brand that was developed not by a master blender, but by the hard-working rollers at Drew Estate. The Liga Undercrown, a highly rated cigar, came about when the rollers at Drew Estate were asked not to smoke so much Liga Privada in the factory. In response, the rollers created their own blend using the same rare tobaccos used in the Liga Privada, but from different primings and vintages. Thus, an awesome cigar was “Born on the Factory Floor,” literally. The Liga Undercrown 10 is a potent, full-bodied cigar that features a very savory, oily Mexican San Andres wrapper expertly wound around a USA Connecticut Broadleaf binder and long-filler leaves from Nicaragua. This anniversary stick is “All Dekked Out” with a special ribbon, band and foot band, and tucked inside a commemorative collectible box. Celebrate “A Decade of Dedication” with the Liga Undercrown 10.
