I made a bad mistake

[ade06]

So I received an Acid purple Kuba? cigar from a lotto that I won on another unmentionable site. I've never smoked an Acid, so I thought what the hay, I'll smoke this little bad boy while I walk to the train station. Wow, that was a big mistake. I lit it up and the first thing I tasted was grape flavors. I thought that maybe I could get into this cigar if the tobacco was good. Wrong... it was horrible. Everytime I took a puff my mouth would start to tingle and not in a good way. Well after about a half an inch, I had to toss it. At least is was free... That was my first and last Acid cigar

[blooz4u]

Yup...I try to stay away from anything Acid. My wife likes them though!

The old Acid "one and done" :r

for some, it's "none and done" :)

I can't believe they don't spell them Ass-ids. ;)

You have to try it once...just to say you did :tu

Um... no thanks. I'm good as is. :D

[ade06]

You have to try it once...just to say you did :tu Yeah, I thought I'd give her a go, but I'd rather have smoked a black and mild.

[TheTraveler]

I've never smoked one but I've handled a few in the B&M. They smell good to me ..... in an incense kind of way. Of course I wouldn't smoke incense either. :D

[ade06]

The sad thing is that the donor, really pumped up the Acid in his message about the cigars he sent. He did send some other really good cigars, so I'm good.

Maybe he was joking :confused:

I picked up an Acid Wafe once and was smoking it on the way home from Pittsburgh.
I was trying to give it a chance, ya know?
My gf said "You either throw that out or let me out."
She meant it. I fought for about 3 more miles and chucked it. I think I made it an inch in, and the things are only about a 1/4 thick and 3/4 wide.
How something that small and harmless looking could be that vile is boggling.

[hotreds]

Yet the troops ask for them by name!

That's where I stand too. :)

Should be easy to hook them up....

[jonharky]

I try smoking cigars all the way even if they are unbearable and the acids are the only ones that I had to toss. And the same at least it was free

[WildBlueSooner]

I do not feel comfortable providing them with Acids because they do not feel better!

[hotreds]

Let's do it, then!

I don't understand what you're saying here, James!


I gave the guard at the NAS Oceana gate a cigar and he asked if I had any Acids. ( I didn't as I did not want to wreck my other cigars!) I don't like them, but taste is taste. Apparently they are the number one seller in the USA. De gustibus non est disputandum!

[ade06]

Do the troops also request flavored Phillies Blunts too? I can only believe that the quality tobacco in Acids are simular to the Phillies.

[hotreds]

Not from me they haven't. And no, I would not equate an Acid with a flavored Phillie Blunt!

[GreekGodX]

I was at a B&M the other day. One of the patrons just finished a Opus X petit corona, walks into the humi, and pulls out a Acid Nasty. I was dumbfounded. If I would have known he was gonna do that I would have slapped him in the face and taken his Opus.

Friends don't let friends try an Acid.

[Waynegro1]

I've had one and couldn't stand it! I don't like flavored/infused (whatever you want to call it) cigars. I'm not a fan of their marketing, I just don't like stogie's flavored!!
It's like a ugly person pouring a ton of cologne/perfume on, no matter how hard they try they're still ugly. Pour/infuse all the flavors you want and it's still crap, IMO. Like my pop always said, "You can't polish a turd".

Hell, I don't even like flavored water. :D

[chippewastud79]

Its really astonishing how people can claim to be aficianados and still have the Acid in their regular rotation to me. I suppose, to each his own and smoke what you like. But to read people who "have been smoking for years" talk about the great Acid they smoked the other day is just odd to me. :hm

I suppose that if cuban cigars are rolled on the thighs of virgins, then Acids are the ones rolled on the thighs of over-worked strippers after a nice night of work. It really imparts that flavored body lotion smell on the cigars. :pu

Actually, Drew Estate uses very good quality tobacco. They just f it up with their infusion process. :rolleyes:

[Bax]

Menthol cigarette smokers = Acid lovers. :2 Plus I think if that's all you've had that's what you like. Think of people smoking phillies and black and milds. For them an Acid is a treat.

I'll need your addy to send my tounge scraper over. It's the only way to remove the taste:ss

[troutbreath]

I've never tried an Acid, and don't really plan to. But, I don't fault those who do like them. We all have different tastes -- not everything in my humidor is going to be appealing to other inmates here, either.

Personally, I love the taste of tobacco and wouldn't want to mask it artificially.

Well, last night I was sorting out a new buy from JR for the troops. I was told that they would really love ACIDs,
or more accurately, that when the packages come in, as soon as they are opened, everybody grabs for the ACIDs. So I thought OK, I will order ONE sampler for 50 clams and send out one here and one there. So I am looking at them last night, and I was set lo light up a KubaKuba just to get a frame of reference, and I kept smelling it and thinking, "should I or shouldn't I"?
Well, one and done kind of describes my expectations, I just KNEW in the end that I would toss it, so why waste it. So I bagged them all up individually and took the tin, filled it with something else and enclosed a note that said, "SUCKERS! Now enjoy these other fine smokes with my apologies."
I will not categorize one way or the other the preference of some of the troops for ACIDS.
I just don't understand it. But I can't figure out the way the young kids dance either, although I get it that it's like sex, except on a dance floor. Plus it takes alot less skill than dancing did in my day. Much less likely that you look like a total dork.
I ALMOST smoked one of the 5 C-Note cigarillos, thinking that one less of those wouldn't hurt, and I could smoke the whole thing and get an idea of what a full sized hand rolled would be. Didn't even have the guts to do that.

[e-man67]

The Acid Nasty is the WORST cigar on the planet! Sooooo bad...like smoking an incense cone.

[darkninja67]

Somehow I knew Acid would be the mistake before clicking on the thread. lol

[Tazziedevil]

I seem to be in the minority, but I like both the acid and ambrosia! I wouldn't smoke one everyday but yeah, I do like them :)

The aroma of urinal cake got to you? Heh heh.

[The Poet]

I could tell you a good story about Acid, but it involves an old herfin' pal of mine who's now with Drew. Mebbe face-to-face I'd share, but not on here.

Suffice it to say, it follows the main thread of this thread - Acid sucks, and not in a good way.

[TanithT]

Some things in life are just self-evident, or they oughtta be. Don't eat the big white mints, and don't smoke a cigar that smells like one.

[jerseystepup]

Honestly... i myself hate them and would rather not smoke than smoke one.. But my fiance will have one every once and a while on the deck with me while im smoking.. No she wont smoke regular sticks.. just acids or cao dreams... smoking with the woman is a really nice and relaxing time, so i take what i can get and dont complain..

however if one of my buddies pulled one out.. theyd no doubt get hell!
