Wow I had a Drew Estate Nica Rustica Toro last night and it was a complete stunner! Copious amounts of smoke, I mean really the smokiest cigar I've had in a while! And STRONG too, luckily I had just eaten an enormous meal before I lit it, otherwise I would have probably been in trouble! Which is saying something, as I'm able to smoke 601 La Bombas with relative ease...

I think I read somewhere before (I think on this forum maybe?) that Drew Estate soaks the leftover leaf and stem and then sprays that concentrate back on to some of their tobacco, as to produce a smokier, fuller bodied smoke. I must admit, if true, that kind of upsets the tobacco purist within me, however it's not like it's flavoring - and if it leads to a far more intense smoking experience, then hot damn! Spray away!! (Yeah, yeah, I know.) Besides, for me there is a time an a place for everything, (except flavored cigars) including an extra strong Frankenstogie now and then!
