After pioneering the microbatch-style collaborations that cigar hobbyists now know and love in 2010 with the Microblend Series, Smoke Inn partnered with Drew Estate for The Pope of Greenwich Village in 2015, marking the milestone 10th release in the series. The cigars drew inspiration from Drew Estate founder Jonathan Drew's Manhattan upbringing, where the 1984 film of the same name takes place.
Bringing the cigar to life, Smoke Inn and Drew Estate handed over the reins to Drew Estate Master Blender, Willy Herrera, marking one of his first blends after taking the position the year prior. Willy tapped into Drew Estate's famed tobacco vaults of Nicaragua, Brazil, and the Connecticut River Valley, topping the multinational recipe with a toothy Mexican San Andrés wrapper. Additionally, the cigars were rolled in an elegant 6" x 40 panatela format, a vitola rarely seen from Drew Estate.
The Pope of Greenwich Village now returns in its original size and format for the 2022 season, being limited to only 800 bundles of 10 cigars. But while the experience holds true, the cigars boast an all-new bundle design, donning the imagery of Manhattan's notorious pigeon and the 2022 release signifier.

When Abe and Drew Estate but heads you know its going to be good. This vitola is small BUT mighty. Full strength and heavier bodied than it looks, this cigar proves that microblends work, and well at that. Bold, strong flavors of earth and leather ignite the palate from start to finish.

The first time I had this cigar was last year and it quickly became my favorite of the MicroBlend Series. When it was rereleased I had to make sure that I got another bundle. Great spice and boldness to this cigar.

I’m not a huge DE guy, which is dumb to say as a cigar fan, but I just find that my money usually ends up elsewhere. Not so with this cigar. The vitola makes it a spicy, leathery, flavorful punch, it is small but it is mighty. This cigar and RMLC are probably my 2 favorites in the microblend series and I truly don’t know which one would be tops on my “desert island” short list of cigars, but this one is in the running. What can I say, we Catholics love our Popes.
