Remember this word: infusion. When it comes to flavored cigars, infusion is the name of the game.

With the help of some old Cuban hands with years of experience in producing flavored cigars, Jonathan Drew and a few other enlightened cigar makers learned how to infuse the tobaccos thoroughly. Whereas his colleagues in the industry have stuck with the more traditional flavors, with his ACID brands of cigars, Jonathan has struck out in a new and wild direction. 200 plus different Asian oils and natural herbs are kept in his factory's Quarto Aromatico (Aroma Room). These are the exotic ingredients that he infuses into Nicaraguan Cuban-seed fillers and wrappers from the far reaches of the world: Ecuador-Sumatra, Nicaragua-Connecticut, Cuban-seed Honduras Maduro, and African Cameroon.
