I tried this cigar a year ago and was quite taken with the quality, the flavour and aroma are wonderful at the price. Tasted a few times since and most recently at this review. Received in perfect condition from CGars and on opening the pouch a lovely fresh cedar aroma. Smooth wrapper and a fine spring to the construction, suggesting a youthful cigar nicely humidified. Lit perfectly and retained an even burn with the ask staying long until half way point where it fell gracefully.
Flavours started smooth and creamy, with the pepper as suggested, very pleasant. Continued to smoke well with plumes of smoke and a nice medium palate of earthy / woody notes.
A nice warming last third that continued the creamy palate and a touch of biscuit? Enough complexity to keep you happy for a 30 minute smoke.
Great value and the Nicaragua range definitely one to try.
Many thanks.

Got to say I didnt like this cigar at all, it took an age to toast, and burnt very unevenly. I thought the taste was vey one dimetional, it reminded me of the cheep cigars that you used to get in pubs. Bitter tasting and leaving an acrid smell on my clothes. My wife thought I had been near a camp fire. I found that the draw tightend up towards the end, and was quite happy to finish it early. Its not to my taste but others may like it.

I’m relatively new to cigar smoking having been gifted a humidor at Christmas. The price of this stick was a big motivator while perfecting the maintenance of my humidor and cigars. I eventually tried this stick last week and to cut a long story short, I will be purchasing more of these. It is a small cigar but has a solid construction with a clean draw and superb burn - not the longest smoke (20-25mins), but once lit just sit back and enjoy. The wrapper has a pleasing sweetness which abides throughout. To start the smoke is creamy and light becoming increasingly spicy and peppery with each third. This cigar won’t give you big flavours or big smoke. It will however leave you with a smile of quiet satisfaction, not just because of the mellowness of the experience, but because you know it cost you less the £7.

I had one of these at the weekend. It was an hour and half of heaven which I smoked right down till it burned my finger tips. Strong flavours without being too heavy on the nicotine.

Drew Estate Acid Blondie Cigar - 1 Single
by Alistair
Good stick! Very similar to the Classic Connecticut Blue also by Acid. They maybe better as you can share with non-cigar smokers
