Natural Egg by Drew Estate Review

[berk-m]

Nice Review, I’ve had one of these for quite some time, haven’t been able to bring myself to smoke it. The novelty value is just too great. I saw it on the auction site and had to buy it. I just like the look on people’s faces when I show it to them.

I still have a couple of these and haven't burned them yet. I was thinking of taking them down to Florida during the holiday and smoking them but I didn't. Might have "raised some eyebrws" in the carry on bags.

I agree, they are a "novelty" item that bring conversations from time to time when I show them.

Make me want to run out and buy one! O' wait I already have 2 going to have to do a contest or something with one.

If he didn't smoke them, would they still make them?

Nope, I think he smokes about 80% of their production himself.

How was the grilled beer?

Not only bad - but a whole LOT of bad smoke all at once!

[ikwanjin]

Aww, that' sad to hear, =/
I was thinking about trying it out even until I read some more CS reviews.

I really liked the looks of this cigar..
Too bad it doesn't have the taste to match.

[tazziedevil]

I smoked one of these about a year ago...and it was a terrible smoke. terrible!

AARRRGGGHHHHH!!!! Ok, from now on every log on, I have to do a search for F'n Drew Estate Eggs. Thank goodness Tom finds them

And now I'm not bringing up my late '70s vintage DE Eggs for you to try, see what you get for being a smarty pants

Let's just put this to bed, THEY SUCK!!!! (and I've never smoked one). I was supposed to smoke a Medusa at LOLH for charity, while piggy-boy smoked a Lars, and Jefe smoked an Egg. But one of them didn't go, and fortunately for the other 2 of us, we got out of it...for this year. Although Kerry said that Medusa would get better with a year of sitting in the open air, in a trunk of a car.

No, jokes back at you.... I visited the factory while they were still in testing stage. These were the pre-released ones, that are REALLY good, that Taboada and La China rolled. Not the main production, once the quality went down.
