This edition was personally created by Dunbarton’s owner Steve Saka and is a testament to his refined skills as a Master Blender. While a few may categorize this stick in the medium to full bodied taste range, I think it’s safe to state those folks are real tough guys. This is an unadulterated full flavored, Cuban style powerhouse. There’s no doubt this is Dunbarton’s strongest blend yielding a rich, robust spicy and peppery taste. The four vintage leaves contained in this cigar that are assembled at the Joya De Nicaragua factory produce a spectacular smoke for even the most seasoned smokers.

I like to call The Hemingway Series the “Aston Martin” of cigars. From the Short Story to the Work of Art, only the most experienced Fuente rollers produce these perfecto sized gems. The selection of tobaccos contained in all styles represents the best of the best of vintage years. The combination of Cameroon, Connecticut Broadleaf, Ecuador Sungrown and Dominican leaves is a closely guarded secret that many others have tried to duplicate without success. These medium bodied, perfectly balanced sticks are difficult to find and worth the search. Numerous 90+ ratings over the decades is a testament to a cigar that is still unmatched. This Natural version was the one that started it all!

Factory Smokes Maduro is one of four of Drew Estate’s entries into the ever growing handmade Budget-Value category for all of us to enjoy for under $2 a stick!
With attention to detail, all Factory Smokes are made by hand. The big difference is the tobacco inside is made up of mixed fillers available at the factory. To put it another way, these leaves are the same crop used in their premiums! And on top of this, Factory smokes were created by Master Blenders Willie Herrera and Jonathon Drew himself!
This darkly wrapped beauties are medium bodied in taste with hints of dark chocolate and espresso. They have a great draw like the others and burn well.
