Introducing the BLACKENED “S84 Shade to Black” by @drewestatecigar.
A passion project between #drewestate’s Jonathan Drew, @metallica’s James Hetfield, and our own Rob Dietrich, this second collaborative creation is the perfect blend of rebellion and finesse. Enjoy the balance of the easy taste of the Connecticut broadleaf wrapper with the rich maduro of the binder and filler with every effortless puff.
