Drew Estate Factory Smokes Cigarillos

Drew Estate Factory Smokes Maduro

A very basic budget stick that works well for the everyday occurrence. An airy draw with an often inconsistent burn, but the flavor remains of straight coffee and aged tobacco.

Wrapped a little sloppily. But smoked well despite that.

Great draw and flavour, burns inconsistently and isn't always pretty. Great budget every day smoke

I'm just getting into cigars after a friend introduced me to some nice sticks. I bought these for the price point. So far they're a decent everyday smoke. Burns kind of uneven at times.

Bitter Horrible burn Horrible draw

Drew Estate Factory Smokes Maduro

TL;DR - Oaky, chocolate, tobacco, bread. Chocolate and cinnamon notes come off the unlit wrapper. The cold draw has bready notes of wheat and baking spices. Initial light up is mostly tobacco some hints of coffee and a touch of leather. Lots of smoke and a decent burn. Wrapper imparts natural, chocolatey sweetness through the first third. The foot put off a lot of smoke at first. Very little bitterness to begin with, and foot scent isn’t off-putting. Ash holds well. Second third finds no flavor changes, but what is present intensifies. Flavors and strength (nicotine) is medium. Final third adds earth and ash to the bready note. Foot smoke turns ever so slightly foul revealing the cheaper side of this cigar. Ash still holds well, though. Bitterness shows up at the end. Power through it to get a taste of anise in the end. Overall a GREAT smoke for the money, and this will be a regular fixture in my humidor.
