Got some down time today and decided to smoke a cigar of my choice. It's hard to choose when they're so many on your list to try. I went with Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 Maduro. And it was an excellent choice! :thumbs:
Upon taking the cigar out of the cello it smelled wonderful and I couldn't wait to light it up. The draw was tight on the first couple of puffs but loosened up after that. The wrapper was a beautiful dark brown with 1 prominent vein and a couple little viens. The build seems perfect. I only flicked the ash 3 times! :0 It was built so good that I had a 1.5" ash and could have kept going if it wasn't for the wind :angry: . The burn was straight like an arrow and only needed a touch up once. It had a nice woody/nutty taste with a hint of sweetness. It started out mild with complex flavors and stayed in the mild to medium category. I would definitely say this is one cigar to have in your humi at all times. I took ya'll advice on trying this cigar and am not disappointed :thumbs: . I would say the Fuente family has their act together and I would not hesitate to reccomend this cigar. It's also a great cigar for a newb because it's not overpowering. Start off right and try this cigar. :thumbs: :thumbs: 2 thumbs up :thumbs: :thumbs:
