The ACID Kuba Kuba Candela hits different with its eye-catching light green wrapper - a signature look from Drew Estate's specialized curing process. This 5"x54 Robusto comes in boxes of 24 at $217.46, packing mild-to-medium strength that won't overwhelm new smokers. Its sweetened tip and herbal infusion make it the go-to choice for those exploring beyond traditional cigars.
First Third: Immediate sweetness reminiscent of honey-drizzled green tea leaves. The candela wrapper delivers fresh-cut grass notes with a floral undertone that lingers on the palate.
Middle Third: Transitions into spiced chai territory - think cardamom and clove mingling with damp cedar. The signature Drew Estate infusion becomes more pronounced without being cloying.
Final Third: Earthiness emerges through the sweetness, like walnut skins dipped in simple syrup. Watch for slight tar buildup past the halfway point - common in infused cigars.
Rolled in Estelí using Brazilian binder and Connecticut-grown wrapper leaves. The infusion process involves cold-steeping botanicals rather than spray-on flavoring, resulting in more balanced sweetness. Aging rooms maintain 72°F/70% RH for 60 days pre-shipping.
