2010 Arturo Fuente Hemingway Work of Art Maduro
2010 Arturo Fuente Hemingway Work of Art Maduro
Specifications: Year of Manufacture/Box Codes: 2010 Country of Origin: Dominican Republic Wrapper Color: Maduro Wrapper type: Cameroon Filler: Dominican Republic Binder: Dominican Republic Vitola: Perfecto (4.875x56) Manufacturer: Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia. Factory: Santiago, Dominican Republic Humidimeter Reading: 64% Environment: Temperature: 30 degrees Humidity: 69% Wind: N/A (25mph) Setting: My usual spot in the smoke shack with my nice, comfortable, new, personal seat cushion my sister got me as an early Christmas present as I noticed it was on sale for half off and told her. Paired with: Iced coffee From a 2010 Cigar Aficionado review, it scored 88 with the tasting notes of: “A near-black perfecto with a firm draw and uneven burn, but interesting flavor profile of wine, spices and pine” 12 years later… A rough, slightly veiny, near black wrapper with very visible seams, a rough head/long cap. A hard bunch, very easy cold draw with a very light floral taste. Overall, only slightly attractive. A slightly uneven burn, typical, mottled white ash, medium conical coal and an easy draw. Ample smoke volume and a strong, fragrant aroma of herbal, woody and floral notes. Generous richness, smooth, generous body, and perfectly balanced, generous herbal, woody and floral flavors with a very light spiciness and a medium finish/aftertaste of herbal, woody and floral flavors and again a very light spiciness and light burn on the tongue. Overall a good smoke, with a final score of 84 out of 100. Taste was great and wasn’t dulled by 12 years at all. If I hadn’t known the date, I would have assumed it was recent production. Not the most attractive wrapper aside from the tasty looking blackness of it. Also the most fragrant cigar I have smoked in quite a while. Typically I don’t smell my cigars at all, and even retrohaling I typically barely taste anything, but this one I could easily smell even before retrohaling. Yet another good, interesting smoke from Bruce @Ljutic I friggin love cigars Last edited by smbauerllc; 11-14-2022 at 02:32 PM. |
