My husband and I, with several friends, usually sit out in the backyard and relax. We have anywhere between 3-5 people sit with us. No one smoked Acid Blondies until I got several. Now the whole group is hooked. It tends to be a favortie with the ladies, but several men enjoy it as well. Very aromatic, very smooth and sweet smelling. An expensive smoke, but very satisifying and well worth every penny. less

This little smoke was fine, much better and a totaly different experience from the previous Nasty roll I had last night. More in-line with a traditional smoke but with a expected flavor that was smooth and sweet. In my opinion $3.50 may be a bit more than what I would spend to smoke regularly. less

Started out sweet and subtle and, in my opinion, a little weak, a very easy draw, it got much more pronounced the longer it smoked. By the end it was a totally different smoke, surprisingly robust and left a sweet taste on my lips for a long while after. Yes, I'll have another thank you. less

Ok, so I've finally finished up my ACID sampler tin -- thank God I'm still alive! Every single cigar, from the Kong to the Blondie to the Nasty to the little scraps of leftover tobacco they rolled up and called mini-cigars, were in one word...GROSS! Yeah, they all had that "interesting" aroma to it (I'd rather refer to it as a smell), but they all tasted pretty nasty (in fact, one of the cigars is named Nasty!). Overall construction of the different cigars were average if not slightly better, but then you light it and just wonder why you bothered. Each had that "taste" to it, that weird, perfume like potpouri that smells like cheap perfume and pretty much tastes like what I would imagine it would taste like if you sprayed cheap perfume in your mouth. So, I tried to look past that and focus on the flavor of the tobacco...big disappointment there too. When you go beyond the "flavoring" they add to the tobacco and taste the tobacco itself, it's pretty bad. Cheap tobacco is all I can say, like the stuff they use in Philly Blunts or Swishers. Then if you want to get technical about it, the ash was very dark grey to black in almost every cigar, the ash was also very loose and flaky, I couldn't keep the cigar lit despite my best efforts, and most of the cigars burned unevenly and unravelled. So to end this book, I wasted $50 on this sampler tin when I could have bought a box of La Fontanas or Flor de Olivas and enjoyed every one of those. When I look at the price for a box of any line of ACID cigars, I think "rip off". If you must try, buy the smaller sampler sets or buy one or two from a local shop before buying a whole box...or just do the smart thing and buy a quality cigar that actually tastes like a cigar! less

I am sorry, I am sorry, don't hurt me!!! I tried all of them, I got the sampler, I lit them here, I lit them there...but I couldn't finish most of them. Really, the Blondie, the 1400cc, the Nasty, Kuba Kuba... Didn't even smoke the whole thing. I like what Drew Estate do, as a company, but this line simply has too much perfumated aromas for my palate. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone. less

After all the hoopla, I had 2 try an acid cigar. I selected "blondie". Perfect burn, well made, and tasted like crap.Another flavored failure in my book. Tasted like potpourri. less

Remember those bubblegum cigars from your childhood? I think they were less sweet than these things. And at least you could blow a nice bubble with one. These things (I can't call it a cigar)are pure junk. less

I bought a Blondie because the shop was out of 1400ccs. It smelled great before I lit it, so I was expecting a nice smoke. In fact, the smoke itself is pretty good, but the wrapper was impregnated with a sweetner that seemed sweeter than sugar. Terrible! less

Nice, medium sized smoke. Good flavor till about 1 inch left. I like the twist off cap. A lot of smoke for a small cigar. Really enjoyed the mild flavor. Very smooth. less

I found the overall smoking of this cigar to be quite enjoyable, but whilst the begining was excellent and the middle good, then ending was terrible. I was quite frankly shocked. It has a nice aroma and good burn, so I was surprised when the end started tasting worse and worse until the final puff tasted liked burned eggs. All in all, I say the whole experience was good, but the end could have been better. less
