One of the most limited and premium cigar offerings to ever bear the ACID name—ACID KUBA ARTE—is now shipping to retailers across the country.

With 2019 marking the milestone 20th anniversary of the ACID brand, a special offering such as the ACID 20 was to be expected, heading into the industry’s annual IPCPR trade show gathering. What wasn’t quite as anticipated was the artistically geared KUBA ARTE.

ACID KUBA ARTE is a play on the Kuba Kuba—the most popular blend in the ACID lineup. The cigars boast a hearty Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper, an Indonesian binder, and all-Nicaraguan fillers. Additionally, KUBA ARTE has been rolled in an elegant 5 13/16” x 54 torpedo format, crafted at Drew Estate’s renowned factory in Estelí.

These broadleaf torpedoes are the most beautiful figurados I have ever seen, truly exquisite. The level of craftsmanship of the Kuba Arte cigar is equally matched in the packaging, as the Brooklyn graffiti artists deeply connected with the vision, culture, and scope of the ACID brand. Drew Estate has created a Brooklyn-Nicaraguan masterpiece that screams from the downtown Brooklyn rooftops “THIS IS OUR NEW YORK ACCENT.” We are very proud of our buncheros and rolleros at the factory, as well as our entire supply chain for delivering excellence, once again. We want to see the “KUBA ARTE” posted in social media as ACID fans build their epic water tower collection.Jonathan Drew Founder and President of Drew Estate

Bringing the project full circle, Drew Estate has partnered with five iconic artists from Brooklyn’s famed graffiti culture, showcasing a total of seven custom-designed Drew Estate Water Tower cigar displays. The “KUBA ARTE” artist team includes names such as CHINO, DOC, KEO, QUEEN ANDREA, and VERS.
