Im new to this forum. I love all types of cigars, but recently I tried the Acid. I must admit at first I was skeptical, but it is a great cigar. I was looking through the ratings, but I was not able to find a rating on it. I like the Blondie, and the cold infusion tea, which are the only two I have tried.
Anyone out there try the others, Kuba Kuba, etc? I would love to get some feedback.
Sportfishing, a fine wine, a fine cigar, and a beautiful woman. Nothing like it!

You'll find that many here don't care for any Drew Estate products, probably because they are considered to be a flavored cigar (I guess). Some folks say they're not a "real" cigar, whatever the hell that means. I would say they are something of a gimmick, perhaps because of their slick advertising and artwork.
Nonetheless they are a personal favorite of mine, and the old standby when something new I try doesn't work out. I love the flavors and the huge variety of smokes they offer. Usually well constructed and never a too-tight draw. Available nearly everywhere.
There are some real brand snobs here, who seem judge your worth as a human being based on the brand you smoke. But most folks here will tell you this: whatever you truly enjoy smoking is indeed a real cigar. Whatever floats your boat is what it's all about.

I'm not fond of the Acid, or any of the Drew Estate lines. It's just not my thing. I do have to say that they are very well constructed. I just don't dig the infused cigars, or the tobacco blends of their Natural lines. To each his own.
The Cuban cigars are next to the crack-cocaine and the kiddie porn, didn't you see them?

I also enjoy smoking Acid Blondies (I just received a box along with my regular box of CAO Gold Coronas.) I've been sampling a little more of the Drew Estate lines and so far have enjoyed each stick.
The Kubas are nice, but if you get a chance, try something from the Natural Line too.

I tried the Drew Estate Blondie, Nasty, and Acid One....the first two I absolutely HATED, couldn't even finish half the cigar. Tasted like scented old crap tobacco. The Acid One was decent, but still pretty bad. And I usually don't mind flavored cigars...

Not only is your name too damn long & wreaking havoc on the boards but it's a lame & tacky move to advertise your business. Hopefully it won't be too long before admin sees this & throws you to the lions. One can only hope

I think ACID's suck, taste-wise. They are very well constructed and burn nicely, but I just can't dig the flavored smokes. I tried a few of the ACID's to get a good opinion, but I thought that they tasted like cheap cologne. Blecchh!!

Hehe. Got thrown down on. Dang. Ive never tried em, I am pretty much done with anything infused after tasting the mayorgan Coffee infused. Yeuch. Tasted like a swisher sweet. But, maybe your acid tea whatevers are beter? I guess Ill never know. The name Acid is kinda a turnoff anyway. What kind of wierd sh@t is that?
Wow. That's really deep. Bickering like little school girls about what someone chooses as their Username. Damn. Is this a forum for cigars and such, or for whiners and complainers?

I'm definitely not a fan of flavored cigars. I did, however, try one of the ACID collection. It was named "The One". It was good (for what I consider a novelty cigar. They told me it had been fermented or had parts of it dipped in different types of wine, so I decided to give it a try. It definitely has a very fruity taste to it. It was a fun one shot deal, but it was well over a year ago and I probably won't do it again
