Casa Fuente

Smoking one right now that was gifted to me by a buddy from a recent trip. Its a Corona Gorda. Its good, but not great. The stangest thing about it is it has a pallet coating effect to me.

As for taste it honestly just reminds me of any other fuente outside the opusx which all taste similar. Not bad, steady and consistent. I just keep waiting for the shoe to drop and nearing the last 1/3 it appears this is all its going to do.
When I think of this stick at 15.00-25.00 I just start thinking of what the slope has to offer at that price point. I am thinking of some amazing sticks at under this price point. Hell for even less than this.

If you are a Fuente guy you will definetly like this stick though. OOO this definetly appears to be a cameroon. The wrapper is very inconsistent from one stick to the next. I have never seen a connecticut wrapper this dark before plus the vitolas site lists it as a cameroon, and other sites say its the opusx filler and binder. Isnt that like a sand shark?
