Drew Estate ACID 20

Blind Man's Puff · Aug 21, 2019

This year is the 20th anniversary of the ACID brand. In celebration of that mark, Drew Estate released a 20th anniversary cigar: ACID 20. The cigar comes in one size, a box-pressed robusto 5 x 52. It’s presented in chrome boxes of 20 cigars and was shown off at IPCPR 2019. The blend of the ACID 20 uses Mexican San Andres wrapper, Indonesian binder, and fillers from Nicaragua. The infusion details of the cigar were not disclosed but described as “truly unique, and worthy of the double decade title.” The boxes sell for $230.40 and ships in September.

In 2019, Drew Estate celebrated the 20 years of the ACID cigar brand. As many know, ACID is Drew Estate’s signature line of infused cigars. The launch of the ACID brand not only laid the foundation for Drew Estate cigars, but it would lay the foundation for Drew Estate as a premium cigar and tobacco […] Key flavors: Mocha (Coffee, Chocolate), Licorice, Earth, White Pepper, Artificial Sweetener (Sweetened Tip).

Even after all the years I have been smoking, I am constantly surprised at how much less pervasive the flavors in most infused cigars are on the palate as opposed to what is present in the aroma. That is definitely the case with the ACID 20. While both the saccharine sweetness on the cap and the fruity aroma are almost shockingly aggressive—the latter almost knocked me off my feet the first time I smelled it, even before taking the cellophane off—the actual profile bears very little of either after the first third. In fact, the second and final thirds are full of more traditional cigar flavors and significantly improved balance, as well as the same amazing construction for both the burn and draw. Infused cigars tend to get a bad rap from some of the cigar-smoking public, but there is plenty to love about the ACID 20 as long as people are willing to give it a fair chance.

This may sound crazy, but I truly believe the infused releases to honor 20 years of ACID are some of the best new cigars released this year. The ACID 20 smoked great in terms of draw and burn, and when I was done smoking I was happy with the experience. There was no level of disappointment, but pure enjoyment. Consistent, well made, flavorful and fun.
