Deadwood Sweet Jane Dia de los Muertos Drew Estate Lounge Exclusive (6×50) Available exclusively for Drew Diplomat Retail Lounges, these Limited-Edition Box-Press cigars are rolled by Drew Estate in Esteli, Nicaragua. We are very fortunate to have these unique cigars & even more excited to share them in your COTM. They feature premium Nicaraguan long-filler tobaccos blended with an aroma similar to pipe tobacco, a Nicaraguan binder & a deliciously dark oily Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper (with what I would say is definitely a sweetened cap). The Sweet Jane Dia de los Muertos delivers rich medium bodied notes of mocha, sweet spices, chocolate, earthiness, coffee & cream flavors. Drew Estate does not say they are infused, but they are very close and on that line in my opinion, however they are very flavorful & a good changer-up’r cigar when you’re craving something sweet. MSRP $9.50
