The Story
Deadwood by Drew Estate was born from a legendary collaboration between the Deadwood Tobacco Company and Drew Estate, originally crafted for the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in the notorious town of Deadwood, South Dakota. The line debuted with the Sweet Jane release in 2008 and quickly became a cult favorite. The Deadwood ladies — Sweet Jane, Fat Bottom Betty, Crazy Alice, and Leather Rose — originally dubbed 'The Three Yummy Bitches,' have become icons of the flavored cigar category. Each cigar is handmade at Drew Estate's La Gran Fabrica in Estelí, Nicaragua, using long-filler tobaccos cured like pipe tobacco. The cigars deliver exotic notes of dark chocolate, cherry, maple syrup, coffee, and cream, with sweetened tips adding to the indulgent experience. Deadwood has successfully carved out its own rebellious lane in a category often dominated by mild, forgettable flavored smokes.
