Arturo Fuente Anejo Shark

[elderboy02]

Date: 8/28/09

Cigar: Arturo Fuente Anejo Shark #77 (5 5/8 x 54)

Cost: I am not sure. I snagged it in a pass

Drink: Coca-Cola

Appearance: This has a Connecticut broadleaf maduro wrapper. There were no veins showing. This is a double banded cigar (Anejo band at the top and a red band around the foot). The appearance gets a 10/10

Pre-Light: It just had a normal tobacco taste to it.

Construction: Held a very long ash. I only had to ash the cigar a few times. The draw was perfect. This is a densely packed cigar. The cigar required a some touchups.

Taste of the cigar: This cigar has a hot chocolate, woodsy and slightly spicy taste.

Strength: This is a full bodied cigar.

Summary: This cigar was pretty good. I think I prefer the #46 (5 5/8" x 46) a little more. I would buy these again. I give it a 8/10.

Very nice. I'm still staring at my first and only Anejo (No, no yellow cello on it. Sorry). Waiting for the right time to smoke it!

I agree definitely a full bodied smoke, I hadnt smoked one in a while and decided to fire one up the other night. By the last third I was feeling the quiziness i typically get from a very full bodied smoke, recommend smoking these on a full stomach. The problem that I encountered was that I smoked it kind of fast and once I started feeling queezy I couldnt put it down because it was still really tasty. All I could do afetrwards was shower and go to bed. Next time I'll take it slower if I can snag some more somewhere.

The right time to smoke it is Now!!! Imagine if you wait years, only do discover you don't like Anejo. Better to find out now and be done with those wretched things :laugh:

True, but I think I'm going to wait till me and my wifes 1st anniversary as it'll be about a year old then.

Nice review. Still waiting to get my hands on one of these at auction. From all that I have read, the Sharks sound great.
