Review Notes:If you were wondering if I was going to rate every Acid cigar I smoked high, here's your answer. I've smoke quite a few tiny cigars and haven't found many that "float my boat", the Mayorgas, and Kahluas were much better than this stick. The C-Note still beat the majority of small cigars I've smoked recently with names like, Matadors, Babies, Demi Tasse, etc. The C-Note starts out really sweet, like its got a sugar tip, in that way it reminds me of a Cojimar. Like the Cojimar the sweetness doesn't last very long and what you're left with is very average. I did like the size and feel of this cigar, it's long, thin and dense.

Review Notes:This tasted like a mouthful of freshly cut grass. I ended up giving the rest away to friends, who also noted a fairly grassy flavor. Not worth your money, really.
Review Notes:Great 5-10 minute smoke. They look like a double bebee (sp?).

Review Notes:This was my first experience with this line/color of the Acids, the Purple line. They certainly don't have nearly as nice a flavor as the blues, especially the Blondies, but they're a pretty decent quick smoke to have when you join your cigarette smoking buddies. The spices are a bit clovey compared to the sharp, sweet, and aromatic blues. They're good, but not great.

Review Notes:Well, first ACID product I bought were the Blondies which I enjoyed immensely but thought they were pricy. Then I decided I needed something to smoke here and there when I'm bouncing at the club (have to smoke outside as the law states) and when I don't have a lot of time. The c-notes look gorgeous but sometimes fail in the flavor department. It's a 50/50 shot. Definitely have to stick them in the humidor for a while if you want a good smoke (they don't take a lot of time to mature in the humidor). The only problem I feel these have is that here and there you'll get one that tastes like a non-spicy stick and then you'll get one that puts you in total bliss with it's spicy flavor. That's the main problem with these...flavor consistency. But, if you just need a good cigarillo smoke, I would tell you to buy a BOX of these ONLY if you can find them at a good price! Some of the c-notes have EXCELLENT flavor while others totall lack the flavor.
