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.

It's like we're twins.
I was never a big fan of Fuente. I respect their cigars for the quality that they are, but the flavor, I hate that tinny flavor that they all have.
The only exception for me has always been the 858SG and 858R.
