You must be a 13

Thanks

I am trying to figure out which one I really had the other day. I had 1 of each and the one I just smoked was no where near how good the other one was.


I just remember them being very similar in size.

My wife who never smoked, smoked it for a little bit. She swore it tasted like chocolate and caramel and loved it. This one I had was totally different.

WOAM 4 7/8 by 46/60

Short Story 4 by 46/49

There are some pics of beautiful Unicorns on that site.

To me the WOAM pairs perfectly with some Ice coffee or slightly sweetened regular coffee in the morning. I make this my commute smoke a lot of mornings.

My noob Jongk47 sent me a bunch of them.

You had a best seller at point too.

Taps, if I'm not mistaken, Hemmingway Maddies come in three sizes.

Short Story - 4" x 49
Best Seller - 4-1/2" x 52
WOA - 4-7/8" x 60

Since you said the two you had where very similar in size, I'm wondering if you smoked a SS and BS, not the WOA. I think you would have noticed a big difference is size between a SS and WOA.

^^They have other sizes also,

I personally prefer the Nats.


I'm one of the rare folks that doesn't care for most maduro wrappers

Wow. Gotta be quick around here

1. Masterpiece (9" x 52) ................................. MSRP = $14.50 x 10 per box = $145.00
2. Classic (7" x 48) ......................................... MSRP = $8.25 x 25 per box = $206.25
3. Signature (6" x 47) .................................... MSRP = $7.50 x 25 per box = $187.50
4. Work of Art aka "WOA" (4 7/8" x 46/60) ..... MSRP = $8.35 x 25 per box = $208.75
5. Best Seller (5" x 43/55) .............................. MSRP = $6.50 x 25 per box = $162.50
6. Short Story (4" x 46/49) ............................ MSRP = $5.60 x 25 per box = $140.00

GET OFF MY LAWN

hehe, it helps that I have pretty fast internet

OK, I didn't know those sizes came in maduro. Thought they where natural only. Oh, well, as I've already said, I'm a Fuente noob.

Nice. Just saw that.

How comes some Best Sellers are coming back as 5" and some are 4 1/2"

The BTL and Untold Story were added later as well.

First releases were in 1983 and they have changed them a little over time and added the newer ones later.

Rfenst is looking to trade a 5'er of the Signatures, I think, if you're looking for some more.

These prices were retail from Vitolas.net

We can get all of these much cheaper.

Like dpnewell said, I think maybe you had a SSM and a Best Seller Maddie, they do really look alike. However, an easy way to tell the difference between either of those two and a WOAM is that the WOAM has a pointed cap. It is unique and unlike any of the other vitolas in the Hemingway line in that respect. So if you prefer a V-cut or a punch, you better have your guillotine cutter or scissors handy.

Other than that, I love all 3 of them for different reasons and until my tastes change, plan on having all in my cooler all the time.

Hemmingway line of Fuente Maduro's are way to awesome IMO.

This thread just reminded me I have a couple left in the Signature size and gonna smoke em soon.

Enjoy folks,

I'm from the same tribe apparently. Most, but not all, maduro's don't have a lot of depth or complexity to them for my taste buds and nose. If it's a short smoke, Baitfishish or Chisellito-ish, that's cool, but more and more if I'm settling down to a beverage and stogie and devoting a bit of time I want a little more, and I've always preferred the profiles of good natties. You're people aren't from south Georgia are they?

River,

Ancestry dot com sez I got folks from all over, most likely plenty from South GA, as many originated in the Carolina's prior to pioneering here to West Tn. Most of 'em anyhow.





being as I don't smoke often, I, like yourself, prefer to spend all that time enjoying the cigar, that's the only reason I'm smoking tobacco, hehe.

duly noted, and I don't send beer, hehe.

BOOM, you are on the upcoming list, y'know, Tiglet already got hit
