Arturo Fuente Double Chateau Maduro Review
$6. - $9.
Wrapper: Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro Filler: Dominican Binder: Dominican 6.7" x 50 Prelight: Sweet cedar, hay, sweet leather 1st 1/3 I like to light cigars when there wrapped in cedar with the cedar wrapping to cut down any influence with a lighter when possible. Creamy start, spice sandalwood essence in the aroma, mild pepper notes Cigar reminds me a lot of the Arturo Fuente Aņejo minus the cognac but a hell of a lot cheaper. Little burnt sugar and toasty flavors follow, perfect burn line and draw, ash holds on for 1 1/2" 2nd 1/3 Nice cocoa flavors along with the burnt sugar and leather, bitter dark chocolate, nutty almonds, some espresso, interesting how a cigar comes alive here over the 1st 1/3 more often. Final 1/3 Added toasty barbecue flavors and maybe a little smoked hickory and sweet smooth rum notes. Overall, I think this is an enjoyable cigar, medium body, plenty of flavor. However I would recommend giving this stick some time in the humidor to improve this great cigar. Smoke time 1hr 30 min Score 8.8 out of 10
