HONORING BOURBON HERITAGE WITH EVERY CIGAR

Pappy Van Winkle is as renowned in the world of cigars as he is in bourbon. Known for enjoying a cigar with bourbon, the iconic cigar-smoking image of Pappy was first affixed to Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve Bourbon bottle by his grandson, Julian P Van Winkle III. It then became the most enduring image of the Van Winkle family’s Kentucky bourbon heritage.

Pappy Van Winkle Cigars are crafted in close collaboration between Drew Estate and Pappy & Company (www.pappyco.com), the bourbon lifestyle brand created by Pappy’s great-granddaughters to celebrate Pappy’s legacy. Combining Kentucky fire-cured tobacco with the master craftsmanship of perique barrel fermentation in Louisiana and the fiery, innovative cigar culture of Nicaragua, each cigar in the Pappy Van Winkle collection perfectly complements a toast to life’s significant milestones.

At Drew Estate, we’ve always believed in strong collaboration. Whether it’s through collaboration with tobacco leaf suppliers, retail purveyors, or brand families, we set our standards high. When we met the Van Winkle family, we knew our values aligned on high quality products, collaborative relationships, and putting family first. Pappy & Company and Drew Estate will continue to collaborate with the utmost respect and admiration for one another. We take great pride in having members of the Van Winkle family join Drew Estate at our large experiential events throughout the year.
