BLACKENED M81 Robusto by Drew Estate is a bold, handcrafted Nicaraguan cigar created through a collaboration between Drew Estate founder Jonathan Drew, Metallica co-founder James Hetfield and BLACKENED American Whiskey master distiller Rob Dietrich. Measuring 5 inches with a 50 ring gauge, this Robusto delivers a concentrated expression of the line’s dark, Maduro-forward character.
The M81 blend is “Maduro to the core,” beginning with a rich Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper. A Connecticut River Valley Broadleaf Maduro binder encloses a potent filler blend of Nicaraguan and Pennsylvania broadleaf tobaccos, including Pennsylvania Green River One Sucker tobacco. Together, these leaves create a dense, medium-to-full-bodied smoke with a deep, layered profile.
Expect bold notes of dark chocolate, espresso, black coffee, earth, leather, wood, pepper and warm toast, with subtle sweetness balancing the cigar’s darker flavours. The 5 x 50 Robusto format offers a comfortable draw, plentiful smoke and an ideal size for experiencing the blend’s intensity without committing to a longer format.
BLACKENED M81 Robusto is an excellent choice for smokers who enjoy full-flavoured Maduro cigars, dark tobaccos and complex, rich profiles with an unmistakable rock-and-roll edge.

This is now one of my favorite cigars, the burn is perfect, the flavor tones are perfect. It’s one of those cigars that when you get to the end you damn near light up another one because you don’t want it to be over yet.
