Quick Smoke: Arturo Fuente Flor Fina 8-5-8

24 Sep 2011

Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,” “hold,” or “sell.”

Arturo Fuente Flor Fina 8-5-8

While no one enjoys trying new cigars more than I do, I’m trying to make a more concerted effort to routinely revisit some of my favorites. The Flor Fina 8-5-8 from Arturo Fuente is one such favorite that I hope to get back in touch with. This affordable, accessible smoke has a wonderful profile of pine, herbs, toast, and roasted nuts, and the Cameroon wrapper adds a nice sweetness. With excellent construction, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better everyday cigar.

Verdict = Buy.

    I bought five of these from one internet seller or another and I have to say, having made my way through three of them, the draw on each was just awful. It was like trying to suck concrete through a drinking straw. I have the other two sitting in the humidor, hoping some serious age will help the problem. My fingers are crossed but my hopes aren't up.
