image.jpeg So these are apparently totally new, as in last 2 weeks, but maybe she said days. I forget. . Gold band (but maybe yellow, like the rosada) called the casa fuente 808 maduro. Also have the 806 and 807 maduro along with another wrapper Delicious so far. Only an inch in. $24

I saw these when I was there last week. I'm really confused as to how they are not an Anejo...

Wasn't CF an Opus with a Cameroon wrapper? Anejo is Opus with a Maduro wrapper? At least that's what I always thought.

IIRC, Anejo was originally Opus with a cognac-barrel-aged wrapper, but there have been slight blend changes since. Perhaps this is an Opus with a non-cognac-aged wrapper? Maybe just a straight Opus maduro with a different wrapper? Who knows?!

She said something about it's a slightly different blend compared to the casa fuente Cameroon. I need to go back in and get more details.

This is a CF with a maduro wrapper. There are Opus Maduros out there and this is def not an Anejo.

Ya. Basically tastes like you'd expect. A CF with a maduro wrapper. I'm a maduro guy but think I prefer the Cameroon cf. still a great cigar and worth the money considering they want $20 for Hemingway maduro a and other smokes that you cam find regularly.
