Mexican San Andres Maduro
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Mexican tobacco is very dark and the best leaves can be used as maduro wrappers. San Andres Maduro is a thick, medium bodied dark leaf, also called San Andres Morron. Like Connecticut Broadleaf, San Andres Maduro is stalk cut and used for binder and wrapper.
Dominican Candela
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Pale green to bright green in color, Dominican Candela is a mild, bitter wrapper that has seen very little sun. Found to be more and more uncommon as the years go by, Candela wrappers have an earthy, hay note with an underlying tinge of sweetness.
Binder
Nicaragua
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
Nicaraguan cigar binders are produced mainly in Esteli and Jalapa, both lands with volcanic soil and excellent climate for growing tobacco. Binders grown in Jalapa have sweet undertones. Corojo, Habana2000, Criollo, and Maduro binders are all produced in Nicaragua.
Filler
Nicaragua
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Rolled by
Handmade
Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.
Manufacturer
Drew Estate
Drew Estate was founded in 1998 by New Yorkers and friends Jonathan Drew and Marvin Samel. Their dream to make great cigars has turned into one of the best success stories in the industry, and their factory in Esteli, Nicaragua, called "La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate" is today one of the five largest premium cigar factories in the world.
Drew Estate’s Kentucky Fire Cured Swamp Thang Ponies uses two distinctively contrasting wrappers to create a balanced, complex and flavorful cigar. A medium-strength Small Panatela, the first two thirds of the Swamp Thang’s wrapper is made of Dominican Republic Candela tobacco. The last third of the wrapper is a Kentucky Fire cured leaf. Both leaves combine to create a rich, complex aroma with hints of barbecue sweetness. Pair it with a great scotch.

The Kentucky Fire Cured Swamp Thang Sweet Ponies is the Swamp Thang’s sweeter cousin. This medium-strength, small panatela features a spicy Nicaraguan binder and a filler that is deftly draped by a green candela wrapper that covers its first two third, then a very rustic Kentucky fire cured maduro leaf covers the final third. This unique blend delivers an unforgettable smoking experience by combining the mouthwatering ultra-sweetness of the candela leaf with the savory sweet barbecue flavor of the Kentucky fire cured leaf and the filler’s spicy core. The Kentucky Fire Cured Swamp Thang Sweet Ponies pairs well with scotch or an IPA beer. It is handmade in Nicaragua.
