Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Extra Ordinary Larry different from other ACID cigars?
Larry features the distinctive ACID Purple infusion with rose-like florals and sweet spice, combined with a dark maduro wrapper and massive 60-ring gauge that creates an exceptionally rich, full-bodied experience lasting over 90 minutes.
How does the Purple Line compare to other ACID collections?
The Purple Line is known for its creamy texture and prominent floral characteristics, particularly rose-like qualities, setting it apart from the sweeter Blue Line or the earthier Red Line offerings.
What flavors can I expect throughout the smoke?
You’ll experience initial rose and floral notes, followed by black cherry, herbs, dark chocolate, coffee, sweet spices, and cocoa, with the maduro wrapper adding natural sweetness that balances the botanical infusion.
Is this cigar suitable for beginners despite being full-bodied?
While full-bodied, the botanical infusion and maduro wrapper sweetness create remarkable smoothness that many newcomers find approachable, though the 90+ minute commitment may be better suited for experienced smokers.
How should I store Extra Ordinary Larry cigars?
Store separately from non-infused cigars in a dedicated humidor at 65-70% humidity to preserve the unique botanical infusion and prevent flavor transfer to traditional cigars.
Why is the ring gauge so large on this cigar?
The 60-ring gauge allows optimal airflow for the complex infusion to develop properly, ensures cooler smoke temperature, and provides the extended smoking time that lets all flavor layers fully express themselves.
What’s the best way to cut such a large ring gauge cigar?
Use a sharp guillotine cutter that can accommodate the 60-ring gauge, or consider a V-cut or punch cut which work well with large formats and help concentrate the flavors while managing the substantial smoke output.
When is the ideal time to smoke Extra Ordinary Larry?
With its 90+ minute duration, Larry is perfect for special occasions, weekend relaxation, or any time you can dedicate to fully appreciating its evolving complexity without interruption.
