Arturo Fuente Hemingway Signature Revisit

webjunkie · 11-13-2008, 11:11 PM

I'm a bit of a fan of the Hemingway line, but I personally think that they benefit from a bit of rest and from not being overly humidified. It is entirely possible that if you got it at a B&M that it had been stored at a higher rh. Then again, I find most fuente cigars to be a bit bitter if they're stored closer to 70% so my taste buds could be nuts.

I stop by my local B&M whenever I am in the area with an hour to spare. This is one of the few cigars I will buy and smoke there, I still enjoy them, but only smoke a couple a year. Too many other cigars are less expensive and more enjoyable to me for me to buy more than 1 Hemingway at a time.

I'm a fan of the line as well one of the few milder cigars I enjoy. Though I was disappointed by an 8-5-8 today.

Not a huge Hemmingway fan either, but I'm a huge fan of the VSG... at least for now.

I use to like them, but now they are just too mild and grassy tasting. It's still my wife's favorite cigar, so I buy a box when I see them on sale.

I still enjoy an ocassional Hemingway, I used to smoke more of them, but now that the Short Story has gone as high as 5.50-to 6.00 dollars at some B/M's I choose not to buy them as much, too small a cigar for that kind of $$$.

If I can find the short stories under five bucks I still consider them, otherwise there not worth my money.

Not considering the price..... Hemingways are a good smoke in my opinion. But everyone has an opinion and everyone has there own taste... so smoke what you like.

I smoked a Best Seller not too long ago from a box I bought a couple years ago, it was a "Wow" cigar, it had really improved with just a little time.
