Drew Estate Factory Smokes Connecticut Shade

Description

Smooooooooth to the core

When most brands put out bundled cigars, they make them from the leftover remnants of their more premium products… not Drew Estate. No sir, these aren’t seconds or fumas, Factory Smokes are a blend designed specifically for the bundled space, delivering the ultimate combination of value and excellence from one of the original innovators in the game – Jonathan Drew of Drew Estate fame. 

Wrapped in a sleek and smooth Connecticut wrapper leaf overtop Indonesian binder, this one should have you grinning from ear to ear if you love burning a cigar while you mow the lawn, man the BBQ, or just chilling on your porch after another long day. The burn and draw are as crisp as you’d expect from the DE brand, delivering a crisp, clean profile with slight cedar, the faintest hints of black pepper, and a creamy core of natural tobacco flavor. Grab yourself a bundle today, and don’t look back – this is the future of bundled enjoyment.

Burns fast as you'd expect from a cigarillo. Leaves a decent taste on the pallette. However feels as though it could be a short filler Tabbaco with the way it gets soft when burnt down.

Nice mild flavor. Some didn’t burn evenly, but still smoked well. Overall, good quality and deserve 5-stars. Recommend!

Awesome everyday smoke! 9 out of 10 burn great without ever needing a touch up. Flavor is great for the price with just the last 1/3 getting a little campfireish, but I like a little of that flavor at the end anyway... I switched to these from the Factory Smokes Sweets because the Sweets consistently just burn horribly for me, even though when they burn well, i love them. With these, I never have that problem. Great consistency.

Construction of this cigar is okay. I had some burn issues with 3 out of the 25 cigars. Draw is good not too loose or tight and the smoke output is fair. The flavor is mellow and creamy with a hint of pepper. I would recommend this cigar for a beginner smoker or for someone that likes mellow cigars.

Good smoke for the price. Have to use draw enhancer and most of the sticks are well made but usually get two or three too hard to smoke even with draw enhancer used. Overall good daily smoke

Draw is great. Pig is good. Construction is fair due to stems and draw end comes apart too easily.

These cigars are thr perfect size for every day smoking. The smoke is mild with a very nice flavor. The construction is non uniform and the cigars don't always burn evenly. Overall, a great but inexpensive smoke.

Great taste and well made. Can sometimes get 45 min on one, but usually a 25-30 min smoke, if you take it easy. This price took me away from the larger, heavier and tighter Punch Bolos.
