Just a heads up. The Undercrown cigars are now shipping. My B&M got some yesterday. Famous has them I believe in boxes only for now. Smoke Inn has some although all I see in stock are the Gorditos and Robusto. So be on the lookout at your B&M fellas.

Are these only going to LP accounts, or will regular Drew accounts get them also? Anyone know?

Can you give me some more background on those, I have no idea what they are.

I'm unsure. My B&M carries the LP and DE lines. I'd think to LP accounts. But that's just speculation.

I found a couple reviews that said these were "good"

I've seen mixed reviews on these, but I'll definitely track some down to try them. If they can at least get close to the LP flavor at the lower price I'd grab a box.

They can go to anyone from what I understand.

My local shop doesn't have an LP account and is getting some boxes. I already have one on hold.

Can't wait to try this blend. Still not cheap enough to be an everyday for me, but happy Drew Estate will be offering a similar LP flavor profile with a lighter price tag. Would love to get my hands on 1-2 to sample before committing to a box.

I think the Robusto was running just under 8 and the Beli just under 9 at my B&M

I'm hoping to pick some up this weekend at the B&M. They carry the LP's and maybe they'll be on sale along with the other DE stuff.

I just placed a small order of some sticks I've been wanting to try:
3 Undrcrown belicoso's
3 CT Exedous 50 yr. robusto's
2 AB Black Market toro's
2 AB ACB robusto's

They will all be waiting in my humi when I return home in 2 months or so.

I have to track some of these down tomorrow. I know for that a local B&M out in the northwest suburbs has them. The place is called Cigars and more. They have locations in LIbetyville and Long Grove. Here is a link to anyone that is interested. http://www.cigarsandmore.com/

Most places they are under 8 bucks which isn't too bad IMHO.

I picked up a toro and a Robusto under $8 each at Famous just now.
They also have plenty of LP9s

Cool, I'll keep an eye out at my local and see if they show up.

I have prob smoked about a box of them by this point (albeit different vitolas)...

DO NOT expect the same flavors as a No. 9 or T52 (or god forbid, a Dirty Rat)...Sweeter, creamer, not as strong as those...A good blend in it's own right, esp at the price...

Sounds great, thanks for the review!

OK, so is there a *best* place to buy these, or should I just pick them up wherever they happen to be in stock? CI doesn't have them, and that's the only place I've ordered from so far. I have very little stock being a newb.

Famous Smoke has them in Robusto or Toro for under $8 each.
They are a great place to work with!:tu

This seemed like a good start/price. I'll give these a try.

Glad to hear it. I ordered 3 of the Beli's, they will be waiting for me in Dec when I return home. This is the release that I've been looking forward to.

Good cigar, IMO, complex and smooth. Not as strong as LPs. This was the 60 ring gauge, not my cup of tea, but a very good cigar nonetheless. Will try to find some Robustos now that I know what I am buying.
emopunker2004

The belicoso is a takes a looooong time to smoke. You'll need close to 2 hours to smoke it unless you puff the hell out of your smokes.

Yeah but wasn't that pretty much standard with Liga and Undercrown?

Just saying they are there since most people like CAYP.

Ironically, I stopped in the local B&M on my way home from work tonight and a rep from Drew Estate was there. Talked to him for about twenty minutes and he handed me an LP Undercrown Belicoso and said enjoy.....helluva nice guy. Lookin forward to enjoying this cigar. :tu

Have enjoyed a few of these since they came into my local shop. Oddly enough the one I had last night had a bad wrapper and tunneled like crazy. Swapped it though and the next stick (from same box) was just fine. Happy to see continued success from the guys at DE. Great bunch of fellas who survived against the odds!

Got my box on Saturday, smoked on Sunday PM.

Simply awesome.....and I smoke a few Liga #9's as well. The nice folks are Drew Estates are really doing some great work...!!

Let me get one more under my belt, and I'll pen a review.

I was thinking the same thing. With all the recent purchases I would think more reviews would be posted. I won't be able to smoke one until Dec. when I return home but I'll be sure to post a review when I do.
