Tasting Journey

First Third: Immediate sweetness reminiscent of honey-drizzled green tea leaves. The candela wrapper delivers fresh-cut grass notes with a floral undertone that lingers on the palate.

Middle Third: Transitions into spiced chai territory - think cardamom and clove mingling with damp cedar. The signature Drew Estate infusion becomes more pronounced without being cloying.

Final Third: Earthiness emerges through the sweetness, like walnut skins dipped in simple syrup. Watch for slight tar buildup past the halfway point - common in infused cigars.

Nicaraguan Craftsmanship

Rolled in Estelí using Brazilian binder and Connecticut-grown wrapper leaves. The infusion process involves cold-steeping botanicals rather than spray-on flavoring, resulting in more balanced sweetness. Aging rooms maintain 72°F/70% RH for 60 days pre-shipping.
