Arturo Fuente Don Carlos

Cigar Arturo Fuente Don Carlos

There aren't many cigar brands using high-quality Cameroon wrappers today. It tends to be rather expensive, rough-looking and temperamental during the fermentation process.

The brand is named after Carlos Fuente Sr., patriarch of the Fuente family. Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia. is the largest family cigar company in the premium cigar sector. Fuente Sr. recently turned 80 and Don Carlos is said to be to his personal taste. The combination of Cameroon and Dominican tobacco has been his trademark since the brand was launched 30 years ago. The Arturo Fuente Don Carlos range currently comprises nine sizes.

They age for no less than a year, and the dark chocolate aroma so prevalent in the aging room certainly emanates from the cold bouquet of each cigar, and is repeated on the palate too. Refined and delicious, it is also enhanced by a nutty, bittersweet finish.
