Now that the Fuente holiday release has come and gone, it has me thinking about my favorite Fuente cigars.. What is your favorite Fuente cigar? And your favorite holiday release cigar?


My favorite Fuente cigar is the Fuente short story. They are awesome little sticks!

My favorite holiday release cigar has to be the Anejo, #77 obviously if I can find it, but I have became very fond of the #60 this year.

I have only had the Short Story, and it's quite enjoyable :)

Hemingway Maduro Classico/Signature for both answers. My overall favorite cigar.

I like all the Hemingway Maduros -- Short Story, Best Seller and Work of Art most of all. I also like the Between the Lines -- although it is a little spendy.

I love all the Anejo's but I have smoked more SS's then any other cigar from Fuente. They make very good products. Never disatisfied with any of them.

I would have guessed GOF....

Is GoF technically an AF brand?

Speaking of Sharks, I just bought 2 of them.

Yeah the GOF is a Fuente brand, I believe it is a holiday release.

I like a lot of Fuentes.
My favs are any Hemingway maduro.

I also like the Rosado R52s, Anejo Sharks,
Opus xXx, and most Ashtons especially VSGs.

I recently picked up some GOFs, but haven't
tried one yet.

I like the Ashton San Cristobals, too, but they're
a Pepin product, not Fuente.

Anejo 55s and Rosado R52 and Hemi Short Stories.

GodOfFire

Well yes the GOF Don Carlos is another fav. Had the SeriesB robust I believe. It was disappointing. Not bad just not as good as I had hoped. I still have the toro to try I think it has different wrapper so I'm hoping its even better.

It's a toss up between the Shark, and a Don Carlos #2

so many.

Opus X magnum o, Don Carlos GOF and standard DC both in Robusto. Anejo #50

Smoke these stick more then any other smoke with Liga falling behind in 2nd.

Short Story & Double Chateau along with Opus X Fuente Fuente (because this is all I have had) 1st GOF was pretty good too.

OpusX Super Belicoso and WOA maduro

Of the Arturo Fuente's I've smoked, if I had to choose just one it'd be the Don Carlos #2.

Regular release: Chateau Sungrown, Hemingway Signature, WOAM (it gets released throughout the year with some regularity, so I consider it regular release)

Seasonal: Anejo 77, Opus X Power Ranger

Short Stories, but I have an Anejo and an Opus X resting in the coolidor.

Regular production, I'd have to say the Don Carlos #2.
Holiday...something Anejo, probably the Shark.

Blak Smyth

I have to say the WOAM was my favorite!

I don't have a favorite. I don't think I ever finished one completely.

I've only had the Anejo 60, SS, and 858. The Anejo is my favorite.

8-5-8 maduro is my fav.

02-07-2012, 02:48 PM
Probably the Anejo Shark.

I love the Short Story but I feel weird smoking it because of its shape. (don't ask)

Hemingway Signature or Classic , Anejo #50 lately over the #77 . The Chateau natural and sungrown got me hooked . Reserva de' Chateau and Super Beli are my favorite Opus . The one I would absolutely love to try is the BBMF :dr . Nice thread !

I like the Aņejos, but they're kinda pricey. Staples for me are the 8-5-8 maddies.

Yes the Anejo's are pricey; however, I think they are priced very well compared to other super premiums. If you find the right place you can get them for $9-$12 for pretty much any size.

Opus xXx Power Ranger and Anejo #46

You nailed my two favorites...

The casa fuente robusto was extremely good as well. Still looking to get my hands on some lanceros from there.

Obvious favorite is the Opus X. I can't afford them even when I can find them. My next favorite is the Hemingway Sungrown. The Sungrown wrappers are not around too often, but I had a 5er I picked up in December and they are great. The regular Fuente with the Cameroon wrapper is good too, but the Sungrown wrapper changes the flavor profile and is a bit better.



Cheers!

Magnum R 52. Love these in the am! Runner ups are 8-5-8 sungrowns and maddys, and Opus after some time down.

Year in and year out, the Hemingways. Any of them.

My favorite is now the Aniverxario, but I've only had the one. It was on par with other far more expensive sticks I've had.

My first love and still reliable is the Short Story. I've never had an SS that I didn't agree with. (Please don't take that out of context.)

Lastly, I have enjoyed pretty much ALL AF products I've ever smoked. I think they are all at least good and they all ooze just a little.

Hmmm. I love me some Anejos, but the Don Carlos Anniversary Edicion is out of this world. It's a shame they're so damn expensive. I think I'm sitting on one more and I'll be cleaned out. Woe is me. ;)

My favorite Hemingway is the Short Story, my favorite Don Carlos is the Robusto, and my favorite original Fuente is a tie
between the Spanish Lonsdale and the 858.
