    i am sorry to hear of the lack of open mindedness and the severe missuse of the term "flavored" on this board.

    carry on gents

    Yup. So I have heard. Which is why I said most.

    Do you know...has Drew Estates always had a large line of flavored cigars? Or did they just start doing that in recent times?

    In addition to the La Vieja Habana, Drew Estates also makes the Chateau Real, which is a good solid non-flavored smoke, IMHO.

    I have some La vieja Habanas that where in tubes with a CT wrapper. Not a bad smoke at all.

    Oh and Mr. 2 posts, please enlighten us as to the proper use of the term "flavored"

    hmmm...lemme see if i can remember......jon's original brand was "cimaro"..(i think)..
    .......then he came out with "la vieja habana".....a very good cigar,but got caught up in the end of the boom craziness.
    lars tetens were doing pretty well and jon and his partner,marvin samel,decided to do the "acid" line...."acid" took off like a rocket...lars couldn't keep pace ........jon kept adding to the "acid" part of the line....then,decided to re-launch "LVH"...not the same as the original,but new packaging and a mixed filled lower price offering....after this,steve saka joined the company and are now offering the current additions to the line...

    it's a very hot line...and quite a success story....

    jon's name,btw,is not jonathon drew....that's his first and middle name...his last name is Sann......he really is a nice guy....
