This year Cigar Safari got rolling with a visit to the brand new Drew Estate II (DE-2) facility across the street from the original Drew Estate factory. Jonathan Drew and Nick Melillo lead the tour of the 64,000 square foot expansion that they’ve dedicated to storing, curing, sorting and aging their growing supply of tobacco. The video that follows introduces the new facility, and branches off into an animated discussion of Drew Estate’s history and relationships with Nicaraguan tobacco growers, including Nestor Plasencia, A.S.P. and Aganorsa.
