There have been many reviews in the past for almost every vitola. All very positive I believe.

WOAMs are in my top 10 cigars. The time it smokes and the flavor are both in my wheelhouse.

I know I am in the minority, but I'm not gung-ho on them. I do like the Anejos a lot better. I mainly smoke broadleaf cigars when I'm playing golf.

I prefer Anejos. Hemingways are ok. Anejos with some serious age on them are very fine.

As for Maduro, you guys are beginning to realize that I love Maduros. I am willing to try any type as long as it is a Maduro. If I say it’s good, I mean it. If I don’t post anything on one after saying I was going to try it, that probably means I hated it. One exclusion to this is the RP Sungrown Maduro. It took 3 to really realize the complexity of that beauty.

The Best Seller Maduro is my favorite of the Hemingway line but the Anejo #46 is my #1 Fuente maduro. For an everyday, affordable smoke, I would go with the 8-5-8 Maduro.

At least once, try the masterpiece maduro. Make sure you have plenty of your favorite beverage and hours to relax. They are awesome too

Despite a couple of opportunities to buy one, the 9x54 size just seems too much. As much as I love Fuente Maduros, a 2-2-1/2 hr smoke doesn't appeal to me. But who knows, maybe one day after I retire.... fog

The Arturo Fuente is all it is hyped up to be. This is a flavorful cigar but a little bit short for my tastes. I may have to get the 6” next time burned my ring finger when I accidentally dropped it. Other than that, definitely an awesome smooth experience. Also, just like the Rocky Patel sun grown maduro this one packs a punch. Definitely a buzzy little guy. I love it. Sweet, full of flavor and smooth as a baby’s buttocks. Damn fine cigar!!!

And Tony, I am not worried about people bidding on these. I have yet to see them on CBid.

I think I will let these set and I will fire up my next one in October on my birthday. Talk about a rare treasure. By far the best smoke I’ve ever had.

Just picked up a box of the Masterpiece Vitola. I can’t wait to put those in one of my humidors.
