With its relatively scant length of four inches and a slim ring gauge of just 38, the Drew Estate ACID Blondie is tied with several other members of the ACID family of cigars as the second-thinnest entry in this incredibly popular series, as well as being the second-shortest.
But don’t let the Blondie’s diminutive stature fool you; this great-tasting, well-constructed stick is nothing less than an understated, seductive powerhouse.
Pigtailed, medium-bodied and sporting mellow-to-medium strength, the Blondie is an intriguingly aromatic, flavorful smoke in the Drew Estate ACID Blue line, infused by means of a proprietary, top-secret storage process carried out in dedicated curing rooms at the brand’s Estelí, Nicaragua factory, using more than 100 herbal, floral and botanical oils and essences.
The Blondie’s gently aged Nicaraguan binder and long-filler tobaccos are encased in a smooth Connecticut Shade wrapper that produces a mildly sweet aroma and light and pleasurable smoke. The Blondie possesses a remarkably easy draw and a consistently even burn from beginning to end; its lingering finish is satisfyingly nutty, with no bitter aftertaste.
Cigar newcomers and those who don’t have time for an extended, full-sized smoke will appreciate the ACID Blondie. These are perfect smokes to enjoy after a midday or evening meal, along with a favorite beverage or dessert. They’re also great sticks to have on hand for friends who aren’t normally cigar smokers. Order a box today, and keep a reliable stash on hand in your humidor.
