Arturo Fuente Gran Reserva

This was a lonsdale size, and I am not too sure what the ring gauge was but it was about a 50 I am guessing. I bought this one from the Cabana bar at the Muckleshoot casino while on a business trip to the Seattle, WA area. My friend and I stopped here after work and I was looking for a smoke that would be on the quicker side and not hurt my wallet to much. I decided to try this A. Fuente from their humidor, it was $9.00, one of their least expensive cigars.

I straight cut it, toasted the foot with a match and then lit it with a cedar spill. I paired it with a Bud Light and then a Hefeweizen. Right away I noticed tons of nice smoke and an enjoyable mellow taste.

It was on the mild side of medium in the taste department and a strong medium in the strength category.

Overall I really liked this cigar and would definitely buy it again.
