My first KFC just a friend. So far I can definitely smell the fire cured tobacco pre-light, however, I only taste it late on my palate while smoking. So far not liking it.
Not my first Fuente, but first Fuente Friday. Started smoking regularly in 2011 and my wife had a business meeting in Puerto Rico that I didn't get to tag along to at that time . The concierge at her hotels husband had a cigar shop and sent this home to me. R54 Rosado. Was digging deep and found it. Sent him a thank you note back then, but wanted to thank the gentleman now wherever he his tonight as I enjoy this great cigar.
Was gifted this by a rep at an event last Friday and planned to let it rest a little longer but temptation overtook me. The cap was a little wonky so I used my punch. Draw is perfect, no burn issues whatsoever so far. Starting off I get a nice sweet tobacco flavor with some creaminess that ends with dark fruit like ripe plum or raisin and a touch of spice. Glad I grabbed a few more today.
