Just saw these... does anyone know anything about them... the description leaves a lot to be desired... kind of sounds like a lot of crap to sell a bad cigar.

I tried looking them up on the Drew Estate page but I don't get any info on them. The Acid line smells like they put some cigars in a bottle of Vicks Vapo-rub. They taste ok. I cant tell but my wife says they have a fruity taste. I do like the natural line. Very good cigar that has a light flavor.
My take: They made a unique cigar that found a market. Now they gotta milk it for everything they can. They start with a good quality cigar and aromatize them.

That I believe. My understanding is they process the cigar leaves on tables made from dead grandmas. Then age them in bingo halls. Afterwards they are sent to retirement homes and made into pillows for the blue hairs to sleep on for 6 months.

RE of Tulsa has bid on 2 boxes of them (at 88$ each) and a five pack for $21. RE, if you are out there, what's up with these cigars? How about a review please?

They must be some fine cigars. They are going for the same price as the premiums. I hear the have some skunk weed mixed in the leaves.

Hey there all.. been awhile. They are part of a line by Drew Estate made for a competitor.. Just like CI's Def Sea and Pimp Sticks. They are pretty pricey.. Never had one myself.

Are they the Acid or the Natural line? The Natural line is not too bad. Also try the Industrial Press.

Jack, the ambrosia are Drew Estates made initially I thought for another retail site. Guess that is no longer the case.

The Ambrosia is neither Acid nor Natural. It is a brand new line. It is also not what Drew Estate calls a "subculture" which is a cigar made specifically for a retailer (i.e. pimp stick, def sea).

I have not tried them yet. I also don't know if they are supposed to be more like the Acid or like the natural because their website doesn't say anything about them.

I got a few Acids, Green Tea or something like that. My question is, why do they make them to look like a firework exploded at the end of the cigar? It is actually butt ugly they way they make them like this, are they cutting corners and fired the guy who sits there cutting the ends of the cigar while somebody yells out B-12?

Actually the open foot is the old Cuban style of rolling cigars. X

Aberdeen I think you mean Green Herro. However this is not an Acid cigar. It is a Natural cigar. Acid and Natural are two VERY different cigar lines from the same company, Drew Estates.

ACID line has some good cigars. Natural was my first exposure to them (Drew Estates). Fantastic cigar. I have tried most of their ACID line and like their Purple to blue line the best, although I have to admit I admire the red line as well.(http://www.acidcigars.com/acid/acid_chart_page.html) See chart for more information.
