Chateau Real

Once one of the most popular budget-friendly cigars coming out of Drew Estate, the Connecticut-clad Chateau Real was discontinued in 2011—and it had seemed the blend was lost to history. Other than the occasional 5-pack from smaller retailers who had found aged stock in their back rooms, these medium-bodied premiums were nearly impossible to track down. Until now! Chateau Real's return is welcome news for mellow cigar lovers everywhere. Originally, the blend was made to capture the essence of pre-embargo Cubans without spending a fortune. The brand's resurrection continues that goal with silky flavors throughout. Nuts, cream, leather, toast, and earth, along with a light finish of pepper, each pair perfectly with your favorite morning coffee. All thanks to Chateau Real's easygoing recipe: a Connecticut Shade wrapper, Habano binder, and hand-picked Nicaraguan fillers. Even more easygoing is Real's low price. The bottom line is that this is a refined smoking experience on an affordable budget—a rare find in this day and age. Search no more; add a box to your cart today and relive the halcyon days of cigar smoking!
