Do You like Drew Estate? - Page 2

Sauer Grapes · 11-05-2008, 03:20 PM

I've had one Java a few years ago and liked it at the time. It wasn't bad for a flavored cigar. I've had an acid and it really didn't do anything for me taste wise. It smelled "better", if better to you means it doesn't smell like a cigar. I happen to think that cigars smell better though.

Yup. Haven't had one in a while, but those were decent cigars.

Not a fan of flavored stuff.

Tried the Liga Privada. It wasn't bad, but wasn't that great, either.

Java's and Liga Privada#9.....on occasions naturals. The Liga's are fast becoming my fave.

jledou · 11-05-2008, 03:27 PM

I have tried the Kuba Kuba and the Krush Classics. I enjoyed them on a hot summer afternoon with a good beer down at the lake. Bitterness of the beer and sweetness of the cigar may have helped.

Figures you two "old timers" would bring up, IMO one of the best sticks to come out of their factory

Liga Pivada is a great smoke. Was gifted one once and loved it. It's on my list of must buys.

Crap, for got about those! They are good! I still have a handfull of the originals around. May have to go fishing for one soon.

WyGuy · 11-05-2008, 04:19 PM

I like some of the Acid series cigars...though not something I smoke on a regular basis.

11-05-2008, 04:34 PM

I voted no. I didnt see a HELLLLLLLL NOOOOOOOO! on the list...

replicant_argent · 11-05-2008, 04:40 PM

I've seen footage of Jonathan Drew or whatever his name is. I don't think I will be putting money in his pocket at any time. Roundabout answer, but that's what I think.

My bad. That's what I get for working until 2 am and then having a few to unwind.

macpappy · 11-05-2008, 04:48 PM

Let me try this again. I have had several of the Drew Estates. I will buy the Java every now and then for a change of pace. I don't like the Acids, Dirt, or a number of other ones he has put out. The Naturals I will smoke if someone else buys it and I have no other choice.

Wow, didn't know you liked them that much Dan

Padron42 · 11-05-2008, 05:16 PM

I had a java one time and it was ehh. It wasn't terrible, especially not for a flavored cigar, but I wouldn't buy it again.

11-05-2008, 05:18 PM

The Joe Deal today is 10 Jucy Mamas for 14.99. I loooooove Liga Privada 9, and Jucy Mama is a Natural, so I don't have to worry about flavored stuff that I don't enjoy. Dirt cheap, I think me and roomies might go in. Anybody had these yet?

hotreds · 11-05-2008, 05:35 PM

Naturals not too bad(tho I don't like the sweet tip on some) but I can't bring myself to smoke something that smells like Aqua Velva!

groogs · 11-05-2008, 05:46 PM

I liked the Liga Provida, but it is not a go to smoke in any way.

Clampdown · 11-05-2008, 05:58 PM

I would have voted "Yes, I tasted an Acid and it reminded me of Potpouri that was shat out someones ass," but I didnt see that option.

Had one once and thought I was going to be sick for a week
