Drew Estate’s Nica Rustica is the flavorsome creation of Pedro Gomez, an up-and-coming figure in the rarefied world of tobacco blending. A tribute to the rustic cigars of his native Nicaragua, Nica Rustica is crafted using a rich combination of San Andrés, Broadleaf Maduro, and fillers from Esteli and Jalapa. The result is a bold, spicy smoke: a nutty, cocoa/dark chocolate bass note intertwined with a subtle sweetness reminiscent of salted caramel, a pleasantly “unrefined” flavor entirely in line with its old-country theme. A tasty treat at a price that won’t put a dent in your cigar budget. Come down and pick up a few today!
