Nica Rustica changed what people expected from a cheap cigar. A genuine Drew Estate premium at five or six dollars was not supposed to be possible, and the original proved otherwise.
Adobe keeps that promise — a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper over Nicaraguan and Honduran leaf, giving dark sweetness, cocoa and a peppery edge. Robusto, toro or a six by sixty gordo.
Wrapper: Connecticut Broadleaf
Binder: Nicaraguan
Filler: Nicaraguan and Honduran long-filler
Strength: Medium to full
Sizes: Robusto (5.0" x 54), Toro (6.0" x 52), Gordo (6.0" x 60)
The best value in the Drew Estate catalogue, and it is not close.
