Drew Estate is set to announce a new premium cigar brand in a new Freestyle Live Event during its May 12 “Freestyle Live: Special Edition” broadcast. Like a few new releases prior, the company is giving fans a chance to preview the brand before its global unveiling by way of a new Freestyle Live Event Pack.

2021 was the 25th Anniversary of the first Smoke Inn premium cigar store. To celebrate, Drew Estate and Smoke Inn’s owner, Abe Dababneh, have created a special commemorative Herrera Estelí cigar honoring Abe’s father and mentor, Raji Dababneh. The Herrera Estelí Miami Smoke Inn 25th Anniversary Raji comes in one size, a 6 x 50 Toro. It is a limited-edition cigar rolled at El Titan De Bronze, the Little Havana boutique cigar factory that’s owned by Drew Estate Master Blender Willy Herrera’s family and where Herrera Estelí Miami cigars are made.
Drew Estate is adding a new size to the Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve Barrel Fermented line, a Gordo (6 x 60). For now, the new size is exclusive to Pappy & Company’s website, pappyco.com. Starting in 2023, it will be available to Drew Diplomat Program participants.
Joya de Nicaragua's Número Uno was originally given handed out to world leaders by Nicaraguan ambassadors on official missions. In 2019 it was made a regular production cigar and the company has added several sizes since then. The original release was L’Ambassadeur, a 6 5/8 x 44 Lancero, then the next year they added Le Premier a 6 7/8 x 48 Churchill. Now the company is adding Número Uno L'Attaché, a 5 1/2 x 42 Corona exclusively for Club de Amigos, Joya de Nicaragua’s top retailers. Número Uno is part of Joya de Nicaragua’s Obras Maestras line.
Drew Estate has announced that their Limited Edition Herrera Estelí Lanceros are returning as a Drew Diplomat Program exclusive. The two lanceros are the Herrera Estelí Habano Lancero and Herrera Estelí Connecticut Broadleaf Lancero. Both cigars will be showcased during Drew Estate’s “Freestyle Live: Special Edition” broadcast, which will air tomorrow night from 7 to 9 p.m. Eastern on the company’s Facebook Live page and YouTube channel.
Towards the end of 2020, Joya de Nicaragua and Cigar Dojo collaborated for the first time on a new cigar, the Joya Ninjaragua. The cigar was sold exclusively through Smoke Inn and came in unique triangular-shaped packs of 6.

Very Good
"There are some that would call this your grandfather's Connecticut cigar. I personally am not a fan of that flavor profile but I know the majority of the smoking community are. So this would be a winner for the fan of a cigar that is heavy on the cedar, vegetal, and pepper notes. This could make a great everyday cigar for that fan base and should find a home in many humidors." -Estevan Z. (TheRealBanzi)

·"This cigar hit all the right notes for me. Flavors were spot on and bold. They worked so well together. These are the types of cigars I'm drawn to generally. This would definitely be a cigar I'd enjoy after a nice steak dinner. And it's definitely one I'd try again. Either as a fiver or as a box buy. " -Kevin J. (maninblack77)
