Anyone else other than nnightmar try one of these?

Saw some at a local shpo for $14 and debating whether or not to pick a couple up.

too rich for my blood. Fuente is popping back up at a few places, albeit much higher asking price than before.

+1... $14 sucks but I'd pick up a couple... I'm guessing they're going to be fantastic...

Well I enjoy the filler/binder of the anejo but it's the wrapper that makes it great. Should be even better with this vitola

Great Cigar IMO. Little bit of tar but nice smoke.

Hmmm, lonsdale-ish size has me interested, price has me stopped cold. Only have had one Anejo and was less then impressed so never sought out more but everyone raves about them. Now I'm wondering if I should give them another chance.

Smoked a Shark after reading this review, and I still think it's one of the best Fuente smokes made.

I like this cigar. Picked up one here for about $12. You have to smoke this real slow. Got bitter somewhat and when I blew it out, it got better as I smoked it slower. Not the best Anejo IMO but maybe not the worst. I think this one gets better w/age IMO. I do love the size of the cigar. My fav is the #46.
