I bought a trio of these beautiful cigars based on an article about the Arturo Fuente family that I read in a well known Cigar magazine and that a few well known Hollywood stars seemed to smoke them by choice, which is usually a good recommendation. I put them away for 5-6 months in my humidor and today was just right to give one an outing, beautiful sunshine, no wind and peace & quiet. Now I'm new to smoking, have never touched a cigarette in fact the only thing I've smoked before taking up this whole cigar business is Trout over a campfire! Wow, it was a beautiful smoke, wonderful construction, perfect draw and the burn from start to finish was as good as it gets! Flavours were really ideal for me at this stage, creamy and coffee with the slightest liquorice taste mixed in on the finish. It never got harsh or bitter, stayed lit despite a few 3 or 4 minute phone calls and kept its ash for an inch and a half at least every time! The description on the website is spot on, I will definitely be buying more. Hope this helps you to try one or more!!

Definitely impressed with this monster of a cigar......working my way through most cigars on the site and would recommend a try.....an easy draw , fine blend with head turning size and looks ...if you can put up with the stares when you light one up ..then it's for you !!

Alec Bradley cigars are my "go to" cigar when l'm looking for a guaranteed excellent herf and l was expecting the same from the lancero. I'm actually smoking it as l write this. The first half is high maintenance for a disappointing return. The second half has developed into the quality l was expecting with an easy draw and volumes of taste. I don't like to say this but they need to be recalled, resized and sold as a bombaso.

I received my humidor today in a most timely fashion. Ordered on Friday, delivered on Monday. The seal seems to be pretty good and although I'm still waiting for the seasoning period to pass before I start to stock it up with sticks, I'm confident that it'll perform admirably. Minor gripe is that the adjustment screw in the back of the hygrometer bent slightly when I was calibrating it. I managed to get it sorted though, so no lasting problems! All in all, I'm very happy with the purchase and the humidor looks great sat in my bookcase!

First time having this cigar an I can say I was not disappointed, the cigar lit perfectly, burned a little uneven at first but it did even it self out. The cigar had a nice flavour to it, it was slightly nutty an peppery with a nice smooth finish to it. I think there was some sweetness in there aswell. For the price you will not be disappointed, a lovely cigar to welcome Christmas day!

Arturo Fuente Exquisitos Cigar - 1 Single
by Christopher
I bought this cigar as I am rapidly approaching 40 and wanted to smoke a proper hand rolled cigar, I opened the wrapper and immediately the cigar smelt better than any other I have had.
I toasted the cigar to light it and took a few tentative draws, the taste was spicy and sweet, a really nice smooth draw and I only had to re-light once.
It has been a long time since I have smoked, but I have now ordered a starter pack of tubed Cubans and a pack of Monte Christo Puritos.
I would buy this cigar again, and again.
