I didn't know it tasted so much like my ex-wife. Dang! Not enough listerine in the world to remove that taste. I felt that I had cheated on my current wife. I had to go back in and find a Ghurka to remove the flavored scent from my truck.

Needless to say, I don't follow that dealer's advice anymore. I'll stick to my regulars! Eeeewww...

I think they must have stuck these in my grandma for extra flavor. And it was pretty rude of them to dig her up for that purpose. :r

Sodomanaz....why do I have such interesting and yet deeply disturbing mental images when I see your screen name? :dance:

I remember years back a truly horrid cigar produced for the "skater punk" subculture that smelled almost exactly like this, the Lars Tetens. I have to suspect it's the same maker. Some kindly soul needs to write them and let them know that the big white mints harvested fresh and dripping wet from public urinals are not, in fact, the best humidifiers for your long term cigar storage.

I did not dare smoke it. I put it down slowly and backed out of the humidor. For all I know it was contagious and I am already doomed. But for the love of Ghu, will someone please explain what these people were thinking? Eau de Ben Gay and chemical toilet with the subtle nuttiness of used cat litter is *not* a good cigar flavor. They did this to those cigars on purpose? :confused:

Never tried an Acid, but the Drew Estate La Vieja Habana Connecticuts are very good IMHO.

I tried a sampler of the line when I started smoking cigars. There was one that wasn't too bad. If you want to try something from Drew Estates that is the opposite of the Acid try a Liga Privada #9 - an excellent smoke!
