Acid Blondie

What a great little stick. Smooth and sweet at the beggining, a bit spicy at the end. Makes lots of tasty smoke, and all in ~25 min! keeps you coming back for more

Not bad. A few veins in the wrapper, great draw and burn moved between earth and spice throughout and the floral sweetness overpowered anything else. Kind of curious to see what the humi would do for this but with it's powerful unique aroma I'm afraid to.

Appearance: 2 banded cigar that says "ACID" on the top band with a blue background. The bottom band has a black background and says "BLONDIE". The wapper was smooth with no major veins showing.

Pre-light: This has a horrible smell to it. It reminds me of flowers and Vic's Vapor Rub. I never want to smell this cigar again! Putting the cigar to my lips makes my lips extremely sweet.

Taste of the cigar: This cigar was extremely sweet. I could only smoke 0.5" of it.

Construction: The draw was perfect.

Summary: This cigar was horrible. I would NEVER buy this again. I still have that terrible smell in my mind. Between the horrible smell, and the extremely sweet taste, this is terrible. I give this a 1/10.

This little blond knocked my socks off. Not a regular to flavored cigars I did enjoy the shift. Very sweet and spicy. Very sweet tip. I could taste and smell predominantly clove but there was a lot of other stuff going on in there too that was hard to separate. Flavor held up throughout the smoke which lasted about 25 minutes for me. Will defiantly have these from time to time.

This cigar is a nice compliment to the afterdinner smoker. I found the flavor to be mild to medium with the exception of a robust finish. Great for after the Steak or Sushi dinner.

Not bad at all! Very sweet and spicy. Nice aroma. Earthy, and well constructed. I get about 30 min out of one. Perfect draw and burn. Could be a tad bit cheaper though.

If you got a sweet tooth then your in the right place. I have smoked several of these. All have had good construction and no burn problems. The draw on these are good as well. The flavor to me is sweet with a herbal kick. The aroma is the same. These would be a everyday smoke for me if they were a little cheaper. Good on the run stick. Get about 40 minutes out of them.

I tried the Acid Blondie, Wafe, Kuba Kuba and Cold Infusion Tea. Of the four, the blondie scored the best overall. Its a pleasant smoke (40 min) but the flavor isnt for everybody. The Blondie is a handsome little cigar...The cap is very, very sweet, that lingers throughout the smoke. The flavor is tough to pinpoint, but smoking it reminded me of drinking high quality whole leaf tea.. like an earl grey. The aroma is very pleasant and my wife for once didnt complain about the smell. Draw was near perfect (best of the ACIDS I've tried) and it held its white ash nicely, for about 3/4 inch. I expected it to get hot towards the last 1/4, but I smoked it right to the nub with no bitterness. This is not an every day cigar, nor a cigar for everybody. This is the type of cigar you smoke around the ladies or a group of non-cigar smokers, as the smoke is not as offensive. Im considering picking up a box for the wife to smoke while I enjoy my "regular" sticks. I would smoke one again.

Has the usual good looks, draw and burn I've found in the Acid line. If sweetness and smell get to be a bit overpowering, but they're cheap.

this was the first cigar i ever tried. very sweet ciar. not bad for a sweet tooth. well built and very easy burn.

Well made, great burn & easy draw. Very sweet, as the other reviewers have pointed out--tasted almost like it was dipped in vanilla extract & honey. Very nice change of pace, or perhaps if you're intimidated by the stronger, full-bodied cigars. 30-45 minute smoke. Definitely good with a tawny port or just by itself after dinner.

Cacme (The first reviewer of this cigar) had it right. Blonde is not her true color. This little cigar looks deceivingly petite and adorable but she is a strong devilish mistress. Someone at ACID should have named this one "Nasty". I smoked the ACID Nasty and enjoyed it. This one starts out with a sweet taste and quickly takes you for a ride down a path you might not want to go. I have had the Kuba Kuba (see my review) and enjoyed the sweet flavor. The Blondie tricks you into thinking she is sweet and then smacks you in the mouth. ACID, I will keep coming back for the Kuba Kuba but I am forever leaving Blondie alone.

I've never had an Acid cigar before and I never will again. This cigar smells good (if it was incense) but the wrapper was too sweet. Once I put the cigar in my mouth it freaked me out, I took it out so fast so I could wipe the sweet off it didn't work. When I say sweet, I mean unbearably sweet like super sugar or something. The wrapper must have been sprayed with sugar spiked water or they watered down some high fructose corn syrup. Now to the actual smoke, it was made very well I will give them that, especially with the traditional pigtail for such a non traditional cigar(probably for that reason). It smoked very well, good draw, and a straight burn all the way. Now the taste on the other hand was less to be desired to put it lightly, to tell the truth I didn't know what I was smoking. My conclusion is this company has great rollers and innovative vitolas, clearly they have great torcedors and a good factory but they might as well throw all that out the window as the cigars are unsmokable IMO.

I really liked the Acid Blondie ....for about 5 minutes. After smoking several of these, I've noticed they loose their flavor very quickly. I know that Blondie is not very big, but the flavor should last until you reach the band. Just not worth the price, stick with Acid's Holistic Line such as Earthiness or Cold Tea Infusion

This cigar has a great wrapper and feel to it. From the second it touched my lips I fell in love with Acid cigars. Just incredible sweet flavor and large white clouds of smoke, what more could you ask for?

I thought this was a decent cigar, but I can see why some people would not like these. The cigar smells like incense, very sweet smelling. Even before lighting up you can taste the sweetness. After lighthing up, it was a very smooth smoke, sweet tasting all the way, not much change throughout the 20 minutes. A good cigar, but try a single first.

I liked the size and feel of the cigar. It's nice to have a shorter smoke that you enjoy when time isn't available. That said, I enjoyed the smoke. It wasn't a brain buster as far as taste goes. Cloves, cloves, and more cloves. The sweetness put into the mix with a sugar coated tip was a better balance for the clovish/curry taste that lingered on the back of my tongue. I did want the flavor to advance more in the last third of the cigar, but it didn't. I'll smoke it again at a two dollar price tag.

Do yourself a favor and save some money. Buy a decent cigar and soak it in saccharine and clove oil and you'll get the flavor of any of Acid's blue label line up. The Wrapper of the Blondie to me far more cloying than the Kuba. The actual smoking experience is very good but something has to be done about this saccharine sweetness that remains seemingly forever. The one I tried was sweeter than candy and thats not exaggerating. Other than that the construction was flawless, the quality of filler excellent. I love this size. It reminds me of the Rocky Vintage petite coronas. Lots of creamy white smoke and a perfect pull. As others have said its a bit overpriced as all of Acid's line are but I'm sure more work goes into them than your average stick.

This cigar along with all of the other acid cigars are so unique. The blondie has a taste unlike none other. Great for a quick smoke. Will buy again

If you like flavoreds, you'll love this one. I think it is an excellent cigar but just a little too much sugar..

I tried this cigar earlier this year and liked it. It is aromatic and I felt that the flavor was decent enough to warrant a second look. This time I was not as impressed by the flavors. I had the cigar with a beer and that seemed to kill the flavor big time. I guess the lesson here is to smoke these w/o accompanyment.

The only problem I have with these are they are VERY inconsistent. I'll have a good one and then a bad one or two before getting another good one. The good ones have a creamy, light and cool taste while the bad ones taste like something a hobo found in a wet, sweaty gym sock.

Don't be fooled by this cigar's size. It pulls out a lot of thick smoke. The aroma was very nice before lighting, but i felt like a lot of the nice smelling aroma was lost while smoking. I didn't really taste a lot of what it smelled before hand. Im not sure whateveryone is talking about when they say it's like smoking a potpurri blunt. Good smooth flavour with hints of vanilla and honey at the end. Small toasty and slightly spicy pulls every so offten. Good 30 min cigar. Would like to see the price a bit lower, but a good milder (slight medium) smoke for any beginners like me.

This cigar had a very dark gray ash, but smelled really nice before lighting. The draw was easy and fast. That is about as nice i can say about this cigar. It was very hard to figure out what flavor it was as the flavor changed with every puff. I know not to pick this one up ever again.

This is my second favorite Drew Estate. Great flavors, Great Aroma, Just the right size for the trip into work. Great burn nice an even Ash lasted to almost the end of the cigar.

This was one of the first flavored cigars i ever smoked....It is also the last.....This cigar tasted like a christmas tree. I only want one taste of my smokes in my cigars and that taste is cigar..not christmas tree.....Also this cigar was a pain in the balls bc i had to keep it in a bag in my humadior such a pain in the balls

There is nothing wrong with this cigar. Why anyone would feel that one cigar is going to contaminate another is beyond me. Just use your humidor's dividers, and even then it should not matter. This is a nice, short, aromatic smoke that should not be a drain on your wallet.
I've said this before too, if you know that flavored cigars are not your thing, then why review them at all? It would be like me trying to rate the best musical ever, I think they all suck, so why should I bother tainting anyone else's view?

i thought this cigar was awful, first u have to keep it seperated from your other cigars because of ts unique taste an flavors, so its in a bag inside ur humidor. When i had it, i couldnt wait until this experience was over, it smelled like christmas and perfume, its a nice cigar for a girl that doenst like the taste of cigars....never again

For what it is, it's not bad. I smoked some Lars Tetens when they first came out back in the day, and the idea of an aromatic cigar is not completely alien to me. It is a nice change every rare once in a while. At the price, this is too small a smoke to justify. Unfortunately, this cigar could have used more of the aromatic flavoring, because the tobacco was pretty awful tasting. Dark gray ash backed up my suspicions on that. Not something I would buy on a regular basis, but no that bad, either.

I bought this because I loved Acid and I don't like to smoke over 45 minutes. Blondie is perfect for me.

Like i said on my review of the wafe, I was a fan of acid until recently. Acid was my first experience smoking cigars and I enjoyed them for a while. I have recently been turned onto the world of cigars outside of Acid, and have since enjoyed them less and less. The blondie was one of my favorite acids. It was always decently constructed, and had nice draw. The lack of taste after the infused sweetness was what finally turned me off. They arent that great of a smoke after u remove the sweet taste from the oils. Heck, they arent that great of a smoke even with the sweetness. They are great if you enjoy a sweet tasting cigar, otherwise stay clear.

From previous reviews it seems as if either the blondies are inconsistant or there are just two groups of tastes. I happen to be in the taste group that enjoyed it, or i just got one of the good cigars. Smoked this in the morning at the beach on the balcony with the morning paper. A great smoke for a read through the paper before i went to the beach, as good as the pre light hinted...I will definately buy this one again

Picked up one of these on a recommendation...interesting aroma, nice looking wrapper. Once lit the first few draws are hard to explain; kind of a exotic floral incense flavor. By the half way point it has become a bit sickening.... like smoking perfume. That was as far as I got. Wouldn't recommend it. Stick with a Cojimar for a smokeable flavored.

This gar does nothing for you unless you love ACIDS. That same pleasant aroma/taste is just not complemented enough by the skinny ring. First off I don't find ACID filler to be that great, but these skinnies really don't get a chance to develop very much as the Kuba Kuba and really isn't worth smoking

Well, my wife talked me into one and I enjoyed the change of pace. I cannot explain the flavor, but it was good all the way through. I was not impressed with the tabacco filler, which surprised me for being from central america. I will buy more, but I was to explore the line before I buy a box.

ahh blondie what a box u have
more like a cabinet
quick smoke has to be fresh
tastes nice burns ok novelty
lacks a pedigree

When i went into david's briar shop, i thought i might try one of these acids ive been hearing about. So i did, and naturally.... i picked up the cheapest one there, a blondie. it sure smelled great, and even the taste on the tip was great too, but when i lit it up... wow. one of the most horrible things i have ever tasted. i would have rather smoked dried shit, then ever smoke one of these again

When I pulled it of the humidor the scent caught my atttention. It smelled like inscence and the size was great for a quick smoke. The flavor was sweet and if you like your lips it gives off a nice flavor during the smoke. Impressed by the light draw and interesting flavor. It is a nice non-tradtional cigar.

it is a very unusual cigar but its unique taste and aroma makes it a must try. though i am not a man who likes flavored cigars this one definetly makes me rethink that every time i smoke one. great smoke for after a nice dinner or out golfing.

The acid line is great all around and this is one of my favorites. A must try for anyone looking for a more unique smoking experience.

Given to me by a friend who likes scented cigars. When I took a sneak peak at the aroma before lighting I have to say it choked me. I almost didn't light up, but to please my friend I tried it. The burn was pretty fast but even, draw was decent, but the taste and aroma gagged me. It might be a crowd pleaser for some but I'll take a pass on these.

I'm not a fan of heavy cigars, but I am of delicious smells and taste. Although delicate, this small cigar is musky, pleasant and gives a nice, even burn. Perfect for after dinner with friends, at the bar, or just alone on the internet.

While I was relcutant to give up my long love of the grand hampton macanudo, like a young teenager pulling his first wood I stumbeled upon a delightful cigar called the Blondie. While short in stature I find the flavor bountiful and sweet. It truly is 20 mins of sweet followed by a robust climactic finish. This Acid cigar is a must for any golf outing!

the smoke itself was weak and had no taste but the aroma was great and the taste it left on my lips was as sweet as possible, now im definitely going to try more acid smokes.

I had to try another one of these after seeing a lot of positive comments on them. I have had one aging for a few in my humidor with about 75 other cigars. I believe the previous one had been a little dry as I smoked it the day I bought it from a less than reputable tobacconist (not a mistake to be made again). This one the burn was cooler and slower (a sign of improved humidification). Additionally, this one was with a cup of coffee that helped compliment the sweet lightness of the cigar. I will recommend this stick to anyone looking for a change and perhaps for the first time smoker who may be unsure of a more full bodied or robust cigar.

The smell alone got me hook to this. The first puff and I was in. Very good taste and leaves a tastes on the lips that the ladies love. Also give you just a little buzz at the end.

I figured to give it a shot. It smelled of musk flavored incense. I did not find the smell bad at all. I lit this up and enjoyed it for a change. I thought it would taste like it smelled I was surprised. You could taste the tobacco and the flavoring. The flavoring was unique is all I can say try it. However half way though the wrapper started coming unraveled. The draw was perfect most cigars this size have a tight draw this one was perfect. The burn was good and even. So for the 2-3 bucks you can get this one try it and Keep it away from you prized humi. It will funk up everything else with that musky smell.

Small quick smoke <20 mins. Nice aroma for a flavored cigar. Sweet wrapper taste on the lips and a light smoke. Enjoyed the cigar for what it was - it did not try to be a Fuente...

Gifted otherwise no way in heck would I buy it. I was actually suprised at this one ... I got half way before I decided it wasn't a contest and heaved it. I could have just popped it in the ashtray, but the satisfaction of tossing it in the gutter was priceless. Nope ... not for me.

If you want to try this, you might as well chew on a piece of ginger, and smoke a swiesher sweet. As soon as you put this on your lips, you're hit with sweet ginger, and as you draw from it, you will feel as if you want to vomit.

Upon opening the wrapper, this cigar has a pleasant fruity smell. Upon lighting the cigar, my wife indicated that it smelled like incense. This was ok because she like the smell. The taste of this thing was like candy. I actually thought my lips were getting sticky from sugar. If you have a sweet tooth, then this is the right choice for your humidor.

Given to me by a friend, I decided to try it while walking the dog (like the last reviewer!). Almost tossed it after a couple minutes, but stuck with it and was pleasantly suprosed. Great draw and burn (though quick), will try this every once in a while for a change of pace.

Obviously, you have to like flavored cigars to like this one. Although I am not a fan, I bought an Acid sampler to try something new, and this was included in the sampler. Small, well-constructed, with a good draw. Very mild tobacco flavor with sweetness - almost a perfume-like flavor. Tobacco flavor came through more towards the last 1/3, but still very mild. Smoked it on a short dog walk, which it is the perfect size for. For what it is, I thought it was decent. My wife tried it and liked the CAO Moontrance and Drew Estate Kahulua better. Regardless, if you like flavored cigars, I'd at least try it once.

This smoke was OK. It was very strong and rich in flavor. It had a very different taste. The aroma it produced was extremely powerful. I don't think I would buy one again however. Just not my cup of tea, or stick of cigar should I say.

I bought a box of 40 off a cigar auction knowing that people were raving about ACID cigars. Like most people these were my first flavored cigars. I must say that I love La Vieja Habana cigars in general though so buying the ACIDs wasn't a total impulse. Great small smoke for when you don't have a lot of time and it's really good tobacco with a really good scent and taste to it. The only problems I do have with this cigar is that it is samller than what I'm used to (I like my robustos and churchills) and the price. However, if you can get these at the price I got them at I say go for it - you have no excuse not to try them at the price I got them for.

The blondie is a pretty good milder cigar with the standard Acid sweetness. Burn quality and ash quality was really good, but the tobacco flavors were just a little too mild for my preferences. Toasty and pleasant but ultimately a little boring. I prefer the Earthiness with a similar sweetness but a bit more tobacco taste.

This little shortie is my favorite smoke. It's short for when you don't have a lot of time. People don't mind the smell! And it has an incredible flavor!

I wa given one of these by a friend while visiting him and was not a fan of aromatic cigars until I had a Blondie. I did buy a box if that tells you anything. Easy draw, good flavor, $3.50 a cigar is too much though.

I smoked 1 of these after having smoked several "Tin Krushes". I'd go for the Krushes instead. Better value, better taste

not the best acid but good, worth a try if you're wanting a quick smoke.

Very flavorful, nice aroma, good draw, and construction was better than most Acid's I've tried. Would definately pick up a few more of these. DO NOT STORE with your other smokes, very aromatic.

I was on vacation in orlando and visited a
local tobaco pub. I asked for a sweet cigar
and he gave me a blondie after I smoked it .
man it was awsome!! I bought a whole box of
40. It is a great cigar.

Great little cigar for a change of pace. A bit overpriced, but a good introduction to the other Acid line.

ACID ARE ALL ABOUT FLAVOR AND AROMA. BLONDIES HAVE BOTH AND ALL PACKED IN A VERY SHORT SMOKE. IS A SMOKE THAT WILL NOT OFFEND THOSE AROUND YOU INSTEAD THEY WILL ASK YOU TO LIGHT UP ANOTHER ONE.

love this little cigar when short on time--or want a jolt away from the traditional cigars. just wish it was longer--burns too fast.

As a newbie to cigar smoking, this was my first ever flavored cigar. I was surprised by the aroma and flavor - and I was even more surprised after I had smoked about 3/4 of it and it really finished with a kick! The construciton was good and the draw was great. I liked my first batch so much I purchased some more.

Yep, the Acid cigars are a trip. This one is probably my favorite because it is small and burns well. I don't overly love or hate these, they are just nice change-of-pace cigars. Do not store with other cigars! The aroma reminds me a bit of a funeral home.

Good Short Smoke. Typical Acid flavor. Good for first time Acid smokers.

Good flavor, nice 20 minute smoke

The Blondie was my first ACID and my initial frame of reference for the rest of the line. The clove flavor provides natural bite and sweetness that is assertive, I suppose, because of the cigar's small size. I also like to keep these around when you don't want to waist a larger stick because time is short for a smoke.

Not anything to get worked up about. Decent flavor and ok taste. The draw was kind a pain and it burned like a canoe headed over the falls. Save your money and smoke another Drew Estate instead.

The most expensive line of clove cigarette's made. Still not as big a waste of money as some other's in the acid line.

Interesting little smoke that would have been better if it was a little larger. Doesn't deserve to get blasted like some of the Acid smokes do, but not a repeater, either. Smoke it if you want a conversation piece.

This cigar claims to have over 140 botanicals. I believe it!! It has so many flavors one can't decide what the dominating flavor is. A bit confusing.

nice quick smoke. good one to try for your first acid experience. great aroma, light flavor.

always try 'em twice...second time much better. No yucky clove this time...nice smooth tasty smoke.

this stick was all over the board with floavors of pepper,chocolate,cinnamon, and a yucky clove. Smoked and burnt well. Not sure what to think of it.

I have been through 3 boxes of these so far. Small cigar, but great smoke. I liked the flavor the best out of all the ACID's that I have tried so far. Everyone loves the aroma too!

This is truly one of the best short cigars I have ever tasted. It is perfect when you only have time for a quick smoke. The aroma makes it accepted everwhere.

IF YOU'VE HAD A CIGAR FROM THE ACID LINE BUT NOT THIS ONE? THIS IS THE ONE TO TRY BUT WITH ALL CIGARS LIKE THIS SMOKE RIGHT AWAY OR KEEP IN A AIR TIGHT CONTANIER!
