The ACID Kuba Kuba is quite simply one of Drew Estate’s most-beloved sticks of the ACID series, and the ACID Kuba Kuba Maduro is therefore a rich, new (and decidedly dark) twist on an old, well-liked favorite.
For those who don’t know, the “ACID” part of the Drew Estate ACID series of smokes gets its name from the business acronym (Arielle Chester Industrial Design, or A.C.I.D.) of Brooklyn urban/industrial/graffiti/motorcycle artist Scott Chester, whose artwork graces all ACID cigar packaging.
According to Chester, “The ACID concept represents a lifestyle intended to depict a person who’s not afraid to explore the Earth or explore life, whether on a motorcycle, or in his own thoughts and expressions.”
As an uncompromising member of the sweet and aromatic ACID Blue sub-grouping, the ACID Kuba Kuba Maduro is ready for such exploration, comprised as it is of delicately aged Nicaraguan binder and long-filler tobaccos enrobed in a Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper.
Like all ACID sticks, the ACID Kuba Kuba Maduro is infused with over 100 individual herbs, botanicals and essential oils, all instilled via a top-secret, proprietary, all-natural process that’s undertaken in dedicated curing rooms at Drew Estate’s Gran Fabrica cigar factory in Estelí, Nicaragua.
Even smokers who aren’t into infused cigars say the Kuba Kuba Maduros possess some of the best-scented cigar smoke they’ve ever inhaled.
With a consistent, slightly bold and wonderfully exotic flavor, the ACID Kuba Kuba Maduros are tastier than the ACID Kuba Kubas, producing a one-hour-plus smoke with a sweet flavor profile that’s perfect for either midday on the golf course or for after dinner, complemented by whiskey, coffee or wine.
