I would never say that all ( insert your favorite cigar manufacturer's name here) cigars suck or are horrible or anything else to that effect just because it wasn't what I liked or was used to, or because I had smoked 1 cigar from 1 of their many lines and didn't care for it... Just venting. Now I'm gonna go smoke an infused stick.  . Safe smokin and long ashes to all! |
Fair enough. I personally wouldn't make the statement that "infused cigars suck." I will say that I have never had one that I thought was good. My wife used to smoke infused so I have tried a fair amount of them and they just don't work for me. I respect Drew Estate as a company and I love their Liga Privada line. I also respect the fact that unlike some other companies DE uses high quality tobacco in their infused sticks rather than using the infusing process as an excuse to get rid of their low grade stock.
I'm not too surprised that the DE Legends is the highest selling blend in the line. Acids are usually consistently the highest selling sticks in a B&M.
