Drew Estate Herrera Esteli Habano

Big Willy Style, Baby!

When Drew Estate welcomed Willy Herrera into the fold, the cigar world held its breath — and the result didn’t disappoint. Enter Herrera Esteli, a cigar that bridges the old school with the new, delivering a masterful blend that draws heavy inspiration from the golden era of Cuban craftsmanship. And make no mistake — this isn't just another notch in Drew Estate’s belt. It’s a statement.

Willy Herrera, the former blender from Miami’s legendary El Titan de Bronze, spent months perfecting this cigar — trying countless blends before landing on what you now hold in your hand. And from the vintage Cuban-style bands to the cabinet-style box, it’s clear: Herrera Esteli is steeped in classic tradition, but with a modern twist.

Wrapped in a flawless Ecuadorian Habano leaf and filled with rich Nicaraguan tobaccos, the cigar opens with creamy, toasty notes of cedar, roasted nuts, white pepper, and a subtle thread of semi-sweet vanilla. Though it starts as a medium-bodied stick, the complexity builds with each puff, revealing a medium to full-bodied profile with finesse and depth. If Liga Privada is your black coffee, Herrera Esteli is that same cup with a splash of heavy cream — smooth, balanced, and rich.

And if you’re wondering about accolades, let’s talk stats:

• 94-Rating

• #8 Cigar of the Year (2014)

• #15 Cigar of the Year (2021
  

Willy’s not just bringing the flavor — he’s changing the game. Grab a box, and taste what all the fuss is about.
