Story and Accolades:
Drew Estate's Nica Rustica Connecticut line is a bold evolution of the original Nica Rustica blend, designed to offer a smoother, more approachable smoke without sacrificing the rustic character that defines the series. Wrapped in a golden Connecticut Shade leaf grown in the U.S., this Short Robusto delivers a balanced yet flavorful experience—earthy and rich, yet smooth enough for everyday enjoyment. The use of a hearty San Andrés binder adds complexity, while the Nicaraguan fillers from Estelí and Jalapa ensure depth and structure. A testament to Drew Estate’s innovative blending and commitment to honoring Nicaragua’s cigar heritage, this cigar bridges tradition with modern appeal.

Pairing: Perfect with a chilled glass of wheat beer, a light-roast coffee, or a smooth Irish whiskey. Ideal for a relaxed afternoon smoke or a casual evening unwind.
