They use predominantly Cameroon wrappers, but for their maduro blends they use the Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper. If you have never tasted the Arturo Fuente Maduro line you are definitely missing out! Each of the A. Fuente Maduro cigars are individually wrapped in the signature cedar sleeves and are distinguished with a bright green ribbon/band at the foot of each cigar. The Arturo Fuente Maduros start off with a looser draw but they do even out after a few minutes into it.

Pleasant in appearance with its rich, dark, slightly veiny wrapper, the A. Fuente Maduro is a medium-bodied stogie which aims to please. It produces a billowy, thick smoke and coats your palate with a rich chocolatey aftertaste. As you work your way through the second half of the Arturo Fuente Maduro blend you might run into a hint of spice and a slight tingle on the back of your tongue, a creamier and longer finish and more flavors coming forth such as walnuts, vanilla and a charred wood undertone, but always smooth and buttery.

The A. Fuente Maduro is pure elegance, equally in its aesthetics as well as in its construction and flavor. Don’t miss out, pick up a few sticks this weekend, kick back with a buddy and delve into a heavenly, rich-tasting, meaty and well-made maduro cigar.

The Arturo Fuente Maduro cigars are available for purchase online at MyDiscountCigar.com.

Rich, Chewy, Toasty and Flavorful – Cigar Review of A. Fuente’s Sun Grown Blend

March 18, 2012 By Administrator 1 Comment

The next time you are in the market to restock your humidor, take note of the Arturo Fuente Sungrown blend. Each A. Fuente Sun Grown is blended with their exclusive Ecuadorian sun-grown wrappers (which are distinguished from the other blends by the black ribbon/band at the foot of each cigar as opposed to a green or red band like the other blends have). The Arturo Fuente Sun Growns are naturally sweeter (like most maduros) than other Fuente lines, yet their wrapper is lighter in shade. The Fuente family utilizes the A. Fuente Gran Reserva’s binder and filler tobaccos, with the exception of the dark, Ecuadorian sun-grown wrapper leaf, to assemble the tasty A. Fuente Sungrown blend.

Arturo Fuente Sungrown at My Discount Cigars

As you smoke your way through the Arturo Fuente Sun Grown cigar you will be pleasantly surprised by its natural sweetness which is imparted on your palate, complemented by a medium-bodied, balanced and smooth richness. The Fuentes treat all their cigar lines with the highest standards and care, including the Sun Grown line, utilizing the highest quality vintage tobaccos alongside impeccable hand workmanship guarantees a rich, flavorful smoking experience with tantalizing aromas each time you light up.

The A. Fuente Sun Grown is an oily, toothy and stout cigar exuding chewy leather, notes of earthiness and a touch of spice and pepper on its finish. If you pay close attention you might even pick up some cocoa, toastiness and vanilla. It will grow in strength as you smoke your way through it. They are each individually wrapped in cedar with a black band at the foot. All in all the A. Fuente Sungrown is not for the lighthearted as it is a fairly rich and fuller smoke, but there is no denying that they are VERY well crafted. Kudos to Arturo Fuente for bringing their A-game each and every time. Do yourself and your palate a favor and pick up an A. Fuente Sungrown today!

Deconstructing Arturo Fuente’s Finest, The Don Carlos Blend

March 4, 2012 By Administrator 1 Comment

The Don Carlos blend is hands down Fuente’s finest line to date. The Arturo Fuente Don Carlos is named after its legendary creator and the patriarch of the Fuente family, Don Carlos Fuente, Sr. When he was creating this line, Carlos Fuente, Sr. blended rare, vintage, hand-selected tobaccos, aged upward of ten years, and flawless African Cameroon wrappers, which makes this smoke equally appealing to both the eyes and the palate.

Arturo Fuente Don Carlos at My Discount Cigars

The A. Fuente Don Carlos is a cigar that will not put you to sleep. While it may not be a powerhouse per se, it is brewing with a myriad of complex flavors. Dressed in an oily, sheen and toothy Cameroon wrapper which produces an even draw, and nutty, sweet, earthy flavors with hints of cedar, spice and an orange zest on its long, creamy finish you will become a convert by the time you are through smoking this beauty. The Don Carlos cigar is most certainly a harmonious and well-balanced smoke with and exudes a perfectly white ash, solid construction and burn.

Due to the fact that the A. Fuente Don Carlos blend uses such select tobaccos, they are released in limited quantities and rate as the finest tobacco that is rolled at the Tabacalera A. Fuente establishment in the Dominican Republic. Even in today’s market condition of over-supply Fuente cigars are millions of cigars backordered across the nation. Do not hesitate to try a box of the Arturo Fuente Don Carlos so you can experience first-hand why there is a universal agreement that Fuente cigars are the very best cigar you can buy. You will not be disappointed.

Cigar Review of Arturo Fuente Hemingway Cigars: Perfecting the Perfecto

February 28, 2012 By Administrator Leave a Comment

If you are a true cigar enthusiast you might know how difficult it is to craft a Perfecto cigar. The Fuente family are true masters (and one of the only ones left) that still make the Perfecto cigars, and not just one but an entire line of them! The Arturo Fuente Hemingway line is a truly special and very unique line. Between the 1920s and 1940s the Perfecto shaped cigars were quite popular. But sadly the masters responsible for creating the Perfecto cigars either retired or passed away. In the early 1980s the Fuente family revived this old-world style craft and tradition and we have them to thank for keeping it alive. They have such a love, appreciation and talent for the rarity that is the craft of the Perfecto cigar.

Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story at My Discount Cigars

Cigar Aficionado has been rating the 8 different Hemingway sizes in the 90s since their debut in 1983. The Arturo Fuente Hemingway Best Seller and the Hemingway Classic have both earned a whopping 93! This line is a true medium-bodied blend using exquisite vintage Dominican filler tobaccos and delicate African Cameroon wrappers. Their maduro wrapper is the newest addition to the Hemingway line and because they are in such great demand they might be harder to come across. The Fuentes only produce limited batches of 75 Hemingway cigars per day. They are then aged for half a year in cedar-lined aging rooms which enhances their flavors and aromas. The unique shape of the Arturo Fuente Hemingway cigars is a figurado-shape with a finely crafted “nipple” as its foot, a subtle taper and a perfect symmetry. When you light one up your palate is treated to complex flavors ranging from spices, toastiness, cedar, sweet wood, and hints of orange peel, honey and even coffee undertones.

The Arturo Fuente Hemingways have been captivating cigar smokers since 1983 with their flawless construction, white ash, delicious flavor profile, and just overall pleasing to the eyes as well as the palate. Now that you are more aware of how truly unique the Hemingways are and how much work goes into perfecting the Perfecto vitola, hopefully you won’t let another moment pass without trying an Arturo Fuente Hemingway cigar today… we are certain you will become as hooked to them as we have!
