I've been tooling around with a few of the AF Hemingway vitolas, and have to say I've become fond of the short story. I like a short cigar, they fit in with my rushed schedule. This is by far the best little cigar I've come across. Reviewing this cigar is easy, because only three words are necessary to describe its flavor: tobacco, tobacco, tobacco! To borrow BOTL SteveS' descriptive term, this little plug simply has 'good tobacco flavor.' Other vitolas of AFH didn't seem to have the same je ne sais quoi (tobacco), but this one's got it!

Great little smoke,

best of the hemi line. Unless your talking maddies.

P.S. can you say WOAM

Actually tried my first AF Short Story yesterday. Very enjoyable one might say. Seemed a little tight, but made for a longer smoke. I may have to procure a few to age.

I am thinking that I still prefer the Signature, (the only other Hemingway I have tried.) I am getting to like the AF's, haven't had a bad one yet...

(Now when should I smoke that OPUS???)

If you have one smoke it. Then all you have to do is fine someplace to get more. I have found a shop in Mpls. that have some most of the time and are fair in thier pricing. Enjoy smoking them, letting them sit to long makes no sence to me.

Lol Goodwrench. We think alike. I hear people say "such and such a cigar is good if you let it rest for a year." Cigar snobs will think me churlish, but I want my smoke to be functional OTT. Hell I could be dead in a year.

Tpottiger, if you haven't yet, try an AF Chateau Fuente maduro. Most shops carry them (around here anyway), they're not that pricey, and aye carramba bro, they're gooooood!

I have a fiver been rested sinc dec
