Arturo Fuente Double Chateau Fuente Maduro (6.75 x 50)

I think the Arturo Fuente Double Chateau Fuente Maduro was the very first hand rolled cigar I had back in 1997 during the tail end of the “cigar boom”. At the time I was not a cigar smoker and I was actually selling cars of all things and could by no means even afford cigars. I was given one of these sticks by some sleezy sales manager and I throughly enjoyed it (The cigar that is, the manager sucked). Over the next few years, whenever the time arose where I’d smoke cigars, this was the bad boy I saught out because it was the only one I knew. Moneybag$ and I had several of these over the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
Now that I consider myself a cigar smoker after smoking thousands of other sticks, I still appreciate this cigar as one the best out there. It comes wrapped in cedar, which I always use to light the cigar. The wrapper is dark, rough, thick, and very oily. Especially on the maduros.
It’s a complex medium bodied smoke. Very woody, with strong cedar tones. Finishes earthy with hints of almonds and a slight spice. It’s a big smoke with great draw and burn that has a wonderful white ash. Takes a solid hour to finish.
To me, these are simply a classic that should not be missed be even the casual cigar smoker. This is what a great cigar is all about.
