Description
Following up on the world renowned Undercrown series, Drew Estate has improved upon the line and released the Undercrown Connecticut Shade. A variation of the original gem, the Undercrown Connecticut is a mellow to medium-bodied cigar, primarily due to the wonderful Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. The original Undercrown cigar was born out of a challenge. A challenge by Willy Herrera to the cigar rollers in the factory to create a cigar that would satisfy his palate, a cigar that would be equal to, or greater than, his favorite cigar; the Liga Privada 9.
“Underneath the hood” is a Sumatran binder and Dominican Criollo ’98, Nicaragua Corojo and Criollo long-fillers, the blend works with the binder and wrapper to produce toasty tastes of nuts, sweet cream, and toast, with notes of warm spice, citrus and a touch of sweet honey.
The Undercrown Connecticut Shade received a superb 91-rating by Cigar Aficionado!

The Drew Estate story is one of daring, heartbreak & success but, most of all, one of passion for cigars and the country of Nicaragua, where we have been making cigars since 1996. Jonathan Drew & Marvin Samel are not your average cigar makers, their story does not start in Cuba, or with fathers in the cigar business. It started with a dream, and through their can-do spirit and never-say-die attitude made Drew Estate one of the premier cigar manufacturers on the planet. The two frat brothers from New York started out small…. Small, as in a 16 square foot retail kiosk in the World Trade Center in NYC.
