Limited Edition ACID “KUBA ARTE” Now Shipping to Retailers Nationwide

From the Wynwood Safehouse, Jonathan Drew Founder and President of Drew Estate highlights, “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.

The ACID “KUBA ARTE” is a limited edition 5 13/16” x 54 torpedo packaged in one of seven limited edition water towers with an MSRP of $238.00/20 count water tower and features art from one of five Brooklyn artists.
