I’ve smoked about 300 of these in the last two months. It is my favorite cigar. I collect high end cigars and budget $1500 a month for cigars, I hit the B&M almost every day, three online accounts to shops to smoke all the blends I can find, but this drew estate factory smoke is about the only cigar that I can say is my favorite. It just gives me what I want from a cigar. I’ve taken a lot of heat from my smoking buds about the $2 it costs and they’ve had a lot of laughs calling me cheap. I’m laughing at them, more for me I always say. Sure these tunnel, a lot, but I’ve become an expert at correcting it, and touch ups, canoeing, I’ve learned more from these than any cigar out there. Most sticks have their sweet spot in the middle, but the factory smoke, it’s the final third that’s the real sweet spot. Sure it’s simple with a reduce flavor profile and it’s a short filler, but I wouldn’t enjoy cigars as much if Drew estate stoped making them. It’s weird where some people find their pot of gold. Everyone’s taste buds are different, I guess I’m just satisfied with what these bring to the table. Even if they were $5 each, I’d still smoke 150 of them a month. I already know most people won’t agree with this review but it’s just how I fell.
