You bought empty boxes or are they full?

Any news? did it work?

The baking soda is still in there. It took the edge off but it's still very much infused smelling. I'll let the baking soda sit for a while more but I'm thinking it's a lost cause.

That sucks! Acid, while having a mediocre cigar (at best) IMO, has some really kick ass marketing!

bigharpoon

yeah, and nice boxes too...

Really? I only had one ACID. It was the red label, Liquid. I enjoyed it alot. What don't you like about them?

I've tried them and they are well made and high quality, I'm just not interested in the infused flavors aspect of cigars. I'm the same way with my coffee, I like different beans from different regions but I don't like additional flavors. These boxes are a bummer for me because I can't put my un-infused cigars into them. Oh well, the other seven work just fine.

I am the same. I am a purist of sorts. I like to shoot things that were made when my grandfather was my age. I roast my own coffee beans, and I enjoy cigars the way they were 60 years ago. I have recently recieved a few of the Kopi Luwaks (12 of 'em) and will give them a go. They say that is one of the least infused ones. I will try anything once, if it doesn't kill me I will probably try it again, if I don't like it the third time I will wait it out and see what happens, if it ever happens. This will be my third infused cigar.

I can't stand infused cigars. The flavor is always over powering to me and it makes my stomach upset for some reason. The natural flavors I get out of a well blended cigar is plenty for me. When I smoke a pipe (which is really rare) I don't mind the cherry flavors etc. and I smoke a hookah sometimes too. Weird.

For me, it's the sweetened cap. They taste so strongly of artificial sweetener that I can't get past it. I do try one every 6 months or so though.
