Toscani Licorice flavored cigars

[Wurm]

Made in the Toscani region of italy these cigars are thin hand rolled dry cured smokes that look like the cigars Clint Eastwood smokes in his earlier "spaghetti westerns", During curing the cigars are dunked in Anise-seed oil (think Sambuca) giving them a black licorice flavor.

A friend was down in Italy for training and brought back some.

If you like black licorice you will love these cigars, because even the smoke tastes like a licorice stick, if you don't like licorice... well lol I would advise you to stay far far away from them.

Little bit of Trivia: CAO Italia are rolled from tabacco from Benevento and along with Toscani is two of the oldest tabacco growing regions in Europe.

I've seen ACIDS listed under both names.

And GKR as far as I know they are only available in Italy.

Good question, and I've seen them stated both ways but one is right and one is wrong. Reminds me of the time I told KevinOWhacker that he was wrong for calling Padron 1926 "Anniversary" and his answer was that it was okay for them to be called that because he's seen it both ways.

My guess is that AVB is right since I'm by no means an expert on Drew Estates cigars. :laugh: (Please don't get me wrong, I'm not implying that AVB is :laugh: because that could be taken as an insult as I would never want to be called a Drew Estates expert )

On a disturbing note, my youngest son, 20, has taken up smoking Acid cigars. Any assistance in how I can get him to stop and smoke something more sophisticated would be appreciated. :angry2:

Doc.

OMG, I'm deeply sorry, that is indeed bad news It can be a tough road to recovery Doc and it must be done subtly, and over a period of time. I wish you well. I know it must be tough to see a loved one inflict such pain like that upon themself but there is hope

LOL. Offer to herf with him and provide the smokes.

Offer to try one of his.

He's your son. Bonding is more important than choice of cigars.

I know your post was in jest but for some reason I thought of what I would do.

Everyone starts somewhere; some just need a little more guidance to get to better cigars faster.

I agree completely with Pstan.
But on the other side I'd rather my kid smoking Acids then him have a super premium and ISOM obsession! :laugh:

Look on the bright side DevilDoc, at least your son won't be raiding your humi.

Instilling the fear of God in them is usually good

Yes, I tried one once and it was nasty. Wouldn't it be wrong for me to say this if I had indeed NEVER tried one and was just repeating what is the common view of these cigars? ???

The guys that started Drew Estates used to work for Lars Teton.
