The ACID Purple line-up will be getting another addition next month in the form of the 5 1/2 x 50 size known as Plush.

Yesterday, Drew Estate announced that it would add the ACID Croqueta, a 2 1/2 x 50 cigar that is packaged two per tubo, to the line-up. Plush uses a broadleaf maduro wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and Nicaraguan fillers.

Pricing is set at $9.60 per cigar and it is offered in boxes of 24.

Like the Croqueta, Plush will be shown off at next week’s Tobacconists’ Association of America (TAA) Meeting & Convention in Casa de Campo, Dominican Republic. However, it’s not a TAA exclusive and will ship to retailers nationwide in mid-April.
