Hey guys. Totally new to the message boards.

I'm rooming with a few guys, and some of us are into multiple types of cigars. I'm big into the Zino Plat. and a few others like the flavored Acids by Drew Estate.

Is there a reason those aren't reviewed on the main site? I've got insider, and can't seem to find Acid or Drew Estate.

Is it just because they aren't high-quality enough? Aren't they popular?

Any help would be great. Newbie question, I know.

The only flavoured cigars they really rate are anejos. Of course many cigars have treatments or curings that use chemicals or natural flavours- but thats not spoken of.

So would you go as far as to say that Drew Estate cigars shouldn't even be considered?

I started smoking about two years ago, and have since drawn away from them into the Zino/Mac. Gold Label area. I'm trying to decide if I should cut away from Drew Estates (and tell my friends to do so as well), or if it's just a more entry level cigar that everyone outgrows.

Just signed up to this site today... I plan on getting serious about what I spend my money on in the smoke shops. Any additional imput is greatly appreciated.

Some of us have had em before, not many of us have good things to say. there are a few here who enjoy some drew estates products, im not one of them. I quickly moved away from any flavored cigars within a month or 2 of getting into cigars. There are too many good cigars out there to smoke chemically treated sticks. They just taste fake and chemically to me, not something i enjoy. The acid line is like smoking an incense stick. I like incense, but i wouldnt want it in my mouth.

Good to know. I just picked up the Padron 1964 An. Series Exclusivo, as well as the Sopranos Boss (although that's still a gamble for me... for the price I'd just as well smoke another Zino... ah well, worth a try).

Lighting up the Padron 1964 right now. I've herd good things...

You cant go wrong with a PAM (Padron Anni Maduro) or even the natural. Padron rolls a great cigar. I dont really care for the Soprano blend, i think they are overpriced and just didnt really have a flavor i enjoyed.

I dont care much for flavoured cigars and have never had an Acid cigar.

I will say that I like the Drew Estates La Vieja and the Outdoorsman's Reserve cigars. They are pretty good for the price.
