Years in the making, the inaugural release from former Drew Estate president Steve Saka (a legend in the industry), the Sobremesa is an ultra-premium small-batch cigar that I could hardly wait to smoke. Steve procured the finest aged tobaccos to create this modern-day classic finished with a most stunning Ecuador Habano wrapper and a regal gold band that gives this beauty a look of understated elegance. Its prelight draw has that hay-and-cedar aroma associated with perfectly aged tobaccos. An absolute masterpiece in construction, Sobremesa burned perfectly with very little effort. Medium to full in body and character, the cigar opens up right away, letting in complex notes earth, sweet spice, leather, and coffee. The aroma is captivating and, in true Saka fashion, the construction is flawless. And the taste is simply out of this world!
