- Cigar Aficionado

"Rolled with a dark, matte cover leaf, the smooth draw of this robusto delivers a rich, spicy smoke that lays a hearty foundation of coffee and earth accented by notes of ginger, licorice and pepper before the semi-sweet chocolate finish. The burn is dead-even the entire time."

A Passion Project with James Hetfield of Metallica

“We’re not going to start compromising now.” Metallica’s frontman and co-founder, James Hetfield, set this standard when he began collaborating with Master Distiller Rob Dietrich to create the Blackened whiskey brand, and our Blackened cigars are no different. Built on years of friendship and mutual respect for each other’s artistic talents, the Blackened cigar project is a three-way collaboration between James Hetfield, Rob Dietrich, and our founder, Jonathan Drew Sann.

The Blackened brand goes deeper than just cigar production … this authentic personal collection is about exploring where we’ve been, dreaming about where we’re going, and honoring the aspects of life that matter most. Each Blackened cigar is crafted to spotlight hard-hitting artistry in every form – pushing new frontiers in expression. We proudly dedicate these blends to the places and spaces we’ve traveled and the friendships we’ve made along the way.

Maduro to the Core

Blackened M81 is the original release in the Blackened cigar series – a collaboration between James Hetfield of Metallica, Master Distiller Rob Dietrich, and Drew Estate founder Jonathan Drew Sann. M81 is Maduro to the Core – a monster of flavor. This blend features a deep Mexican Maduro as the wrapper, meticulously packed with Maduro binder and filler leaves that drive hard. The result is a dark, bold, extremely flavorful smoking experience. Blackened M81 delivers a raucous symphony of dark chocolate, warm, toasty undertones, and a backing of subtle black pepper.
