Drew Estate Blackened Toro Sampler brings together two distinctive BLACKENED cigar blends in the popular 6 x 52 Toro size: BLACKENED M81 Maduro to the Core and BLACKENED S84 Shade to Black. Both are handmade by Drew Estate in Nicaragua and were developed through the collaboration of Metallica's James Hetfield, BLACKENED master distiller Rob Dietrich, and Drew Estate founder Jonathan Drew.
The sampler provides a direct comparison between the dark, full-bodied M81 and the smoother S84. M81 combines a Mexican San Andres Maduro wrapper with Connecticut River Valley Broadleaf Maduro binder and Nicaraguan and Pennsylvania Broadleaf Maduro fillers. S84 reverses the visual experience with a light Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper surrounding a dark Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro binder and Maduro-rich filler blend.

What cigars are in the Drew Estate Blackened Toro Sampler?
The Drew Estate Blackened Toro Sampler features BLACKENED M81 Maduro to the Core Toro and BLACKENED S84 Shade to Black Toro cigars. Both blends are presented in the same 6 x 52 Toro size, making it easy to compare their different wrapper and blend profiles.
What is BLACKENED M81 Maduro to the Core?

What is BLACKENED S84 Shade to Black?
BLACKENED S84 Shade to Black uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper over a Connecticut River Valley Broadleaf Maduro binder with Nicaraguan Maduro and Pennsylvania Broadleaf Maduro filler tobaccos. Drew Estate classifies S84 as medium-bodied.
What is the difference between BLACKENED M81 and S84?
