The Blondie Gold represents Drew Estate’s innovation at its finest, taking their bestselling original Blondie formula and elevating it with a rare Indonesian Sumatra wrapper. This golden-brown leaf adds layers of complexity to the signature ACID infusion process, creating waves of exotic aromas that ignite the senses from the first light.
Beneath the wrapper lies a core of premium Nicaraguan tobaccos that undergo Drew Estate’s closely guarded infusion process. The result is a silky-smooth experience that begins with sweet and sour notes, gradually revealing hints of citrus, jasmine tea, earth, and lemongrass. Subtle ribbons of cinnamon and pepper emerge as the cigar progresses, building toward an energetic yet composed finish.
Hand-rolled in Estelí, Nicaragua, each Blondie Gold showcases the meticulous attention to detail that has made ACID cigars legendary. The compact 4-inch length and 38 ring gauge make it an ideal choice for those seeking premium flavor without the time commitment of larger formats. Whether you’re exploring infused cigars for the first time or adding variety to your rotation, the Blondie Gold delivers an unforgettable experience that balances mellow character with intensely rich taste.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the ACID Blondie Gold different from the original Blondie?
The Blondie Gold features a distinctive Sumatra wrapper instead of the Connecticut shade wrapper found on the original, creating a spicier and more complex flavor profile while maintaining the signature ACID infusion.

You’ll experience an evolving profile starting with sweet and sour notes, followed by citrus, jasmine tea, earth, and lemongrass, with hints of cinnamon and pepper developing throughout the smoke.
How should I store ACID Blondie Gold cigars?
Store them separately from non-infused cigars in a dedicated humidor or sealed container at 65-70% humidity to preserve their unique botanical infusion and prevent flavor transfer to other cigars.
What’s the significance of the pigtail cap?
The pigtail cap is both decorative and functional, showcasing the roller’s skill while allowing you to easily remove it by hand without cutting tools if desired, though using a cutter is still recommended for the cleanest draw.

Yes, ACID Blondie Gold uses premium long-filler Nicaraguan tobacco that undergoes Drew Estate’s proprietary infusion process with natural herbs, botanicals, and essential oils to create its distinctive flavor.
What occasions pair well with the Blondie Gold?

The ACID Blondie Gold cigar is a decent choice for those who enjoy a sweet smoking experience. However, in my opinion, the sweetness is a bit too overpowering and takes away from the overall flavor of the cigar. The 4×38 size is suitable for a quick smoke but I found that it burnt quickly and unevenly.
The aroma of the cigar is quite pleasant and it produces a good amount of smoke. The construction of the cigar is decent and the draw is smooth, but the overly sweet taste detracted from my enjoyment of the smoking experience.
Overall, while the ACID Blondie Gold cigar may appeal to those who have a sweet tooth, or like the smell of incense, but it is not a cigar that I would personally choose to smoke again. The sweetness was too much for me and took away from the other flavors that could have been enjoyed in this cigar.
