Best effort I have ever come across, superimposing a small cigar on a big one. It's a great try but I just don't think it works. Fine for the money but short changes the abilities of AV. Smoke half the amount and try a Bewteen the Lines. Now that's a different story.

Nice flavour, slightly tight draw, a bit pricey for such a small cigar

I by no means consider myself a cigar connoisseur, or even anything close, as I am rather new to the cigar world. However this cigar has quickly become one of my favorite and a staple of every order.
Very smooth smoke, nutty and peppery/ spicy at the end (to me at least). Incredibly even burn with no re-lighting necessary, and can easily be made to last 30-40 minutes.

This was my first Arturo Fuente cigar and I must say it was fantastic! The draw is a bit tight but nothing unexpected. The construction was solid and ash held for about an inch and a half. The burn was also consistent through about 2/3 of the cigar with a bit of relighting needed. The cigar lasted me about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
In terms of flavor I found the smoke very smooth and creamy with hints of chocolate, vanilla and of roasted Barley. Towards the last 1/3 the taste developed into something much more rich and deep. As a novice myself I was surprised by the overall strength but was not overwhelmed as it came gradually and consistently.
Would recommend to anyone looking to develop their palate.
5/5 Because I enjoyed the experience and quality.

On my fourth one of these now and to be honest I enjoy them a bit more every time! I'm ordering more and can see these as permanent fixtures in my humidor for those (many) occasions when you don't have time for.... Well, which one for those times ....

Well after my last few cigars I've felt a bit disappointed, so I chose this cigar out of my humidor on the back of several recommendations in the hope that I would be impressed. A fair amount of people consider this one of thier favorite smokes so I was very much looking forward to it despite the hefty price for such a small cigar. All I can say is I must have had a bad one! First half of the cigar I didn't really get anything other than a very light and smooth smoke that didn't really taste of anything at all. The finish was quite an unpleasant dusty bitter taste. Second half got a little better and actually had some nice nutty tones and smooth tobacco flavour but still didn't really impress me very much at all. At £9.99 I feel a little ripped off and have been put off the fuente brand. Maybe just my palate but still feeling quite disappointed.
