Drew Estate Tabak Especial Toraja
In the world of infused cigars, Drew Estate's Tabak Especial range has become a benchmark. With Tabak Especial Toraja, the Nicaraguan company offers an original variation that combines two styles from the range while showcasing a rare coffee: Toraja.
From the very first glance, the Tabak Especial Toraja stands out for its unusual appearance. Its wrapper is two-toned: most of the cigar is covered with a soft, light Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade, while the head is wrapped in a darker, richer Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper.
This visual blend also reflects its concept: combining the characteristics of Tabak Especial Dulce and Tabak Especial Negra in a single cigar.
Underneath this double wrapper is a Sumatra binder and Nicaraguan filler, the usual signature of Drew Estate products.
Toraja coffee, at the heart of the project
The name of this cigar refers to Toraja coffee, which originates from the mountainous region of Sulawesi in Indonesia. Grown at an altitude of around 1,500 metres, this coffee is renowned for its rich aroma and creamy texture.

A story about cigars
Toraja coffee plays an important part in the rituals surrounding the lives of loved ones who have passed away. Toraja cigars pay a respectful tribute to these traditions of sharing our life experiences.

About Drew Estate
The story of Jonathan Drew and Marvin Samel begins at secondary school. These two New York ‘frat bros’, who are passionate about Nicaragua and fine cigars, began their adventure in the cigar world by running a small kiosk in town.
Two years later, Jonathan moved to Estelí with just a few dollars in his pocket and a smattering of Spanish. He hired a few torcedors to roll the first cigars. Meanwhile, Samel continued to run the New York shop and borrowed money from anyone willing to believe in them.
It was a long and winding road until the opening in 2007 of La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate, rolling over 90,000 cigars every day.
