The Fat Bottom Betty by Drew Estate is easily one of the most unique cigars I’ve tried so far. If you enjoy infused or naturally sweetened cigars, this one stands out immediately. Even as someone still early in exploring nontraditional blends, this cigar impressed me with its balance between sweetness and genuine tobacco depth.
From the moment you unband it, the aroma is unmistakably Drew Estate—rich, sweet, and full of character. The cold draw brought notes of sugar, cocoa, and molasses. Once lit, the Betty opened with a dessert-like sweetness, but not in an artificial way. It’s creamy, chocolatey, and warm, with hints of caramel and roasted coffee underneath.
The smoke output is thick and aromatic, and the burn is surprisingly consistent given how oily the wrapper is. As the smoke progresses, the sweetness softens slightly, letting more traditional flavors come forward—oak, spice, and a bit of toasted bread. The final third brings a touch more strength, balancing the sweetness beautifully.
It’s playful, rich, and very easy to enjoy. For people still discovering what they like, it’s a perfect “change of pace” cigar that delivers flavor in a bold, memorable way.
