The name comes from the plant family Solanaceae, commonly known as nightshades, which include the tobacco plant.
“This blend unites majestic tobaccos from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic and Indonesia, which we then painstakingly wrap under a Habano seed wrapper-leaf grown in the Connecticut River Valley. This results in dark earthy espresso meeting the blackest of peppers in some kind of aged-goodness dance,” says Jonathan Drew. “No joke,” Drew added, “the NightShade is dope!”
