I've been in the anti-Fuente camp for 6-7 years. Anejo, Opus, Don Carlos all ok, but way overpriced for what they are. Anything with green in the band made me gag. Hemingways are overrated and bland - maduros and naturals. I never questioned the construction and consistency...just that no AF ever gave me flavors I cared for.

But, then, early this year I had an 858 Sun Grown. Fanfreakingtastic. I've gone through a few boxes of them and they are still great. I've added Cuban Beli SG to the mix, as well. So.....I no longer bash the entire line of AF.....but I'm pretty limited in what I like of the Fuentes.
