FONSECA 

Don Francisco Fonseca founded his brand in the 1890's. 

A handsome man, who cared deeply for appearances, he passed his sartorial precision on to his cigars, which he dressed in a silky tissue paper - a tradition that continues to this day on all the Habanos that bear his name. 

The image of Francisco Fonseca, who developed this brand in 1906, still adorns the box today. Only in limited distribution, the Fonseca brand is considered to exhibit a rich but mild flavour. Fonseca's delicate blend of filler and binder tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo zone makes it the ideal Habano to follow a light meal. 

 

 

Tasting Notes

This 42 gauge is the brand's most popular vitola. A smooth flavour and aroma and an easy draw and combustion make this cigar an all-purpose Habano.

----

89 / 100

"There's a firm draw to this dark, streaky corona, but strong woody notes and touches of candied orange peel still come through...."

I actually found that this wasn't quite as nice as its smaller counterpart, the Cadete. Not quite as smooth. But in its own right, not bad at all. Very complex flavours and lasts a good while. 7/10.

this is a good smoke, smooth, good draw and subtlely complex flavours. Well constructed and burned very evenly. A good value Cuban for £2.00 less than some others.

what a pleasant surprise! bought this out of curiosity as i've never seen this around my usual shops. well I must say this as a cracking smoke. well received if your a medium flavour preferrer. almost mild roasted flavour, yet light, cool and smooth - coupled with a fantastic burn and very pleasant draw. all for under a tenner! definitely worth a try.

Yet again, another "forgotten" Cuban brand, almost impossible to find in some countries, which contains wonderful cigars. Cosacos, slightly longer than a corona, are a wonderful all purpose smoke - theyre rich, smooth, easy draw, no burn problems, have great flavours (sweet and coffee like) - no sharp edges, a cigar with genuine character. Highly recommended, these are a favourite when I can find them. Ive smoked much worse "better" cigars than Fonseca. Give these a try at some point ! written by Dave Francis
