New Product: Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Belicoso

Hello Cigar Smokers!
Today I'm proud to present our newest addition to our Fuente collection, the Don Carlos Belicoso. This is the same cigar that Cigar Aficionado ranked the #4 cigar of 2015, and is a real treat for any fan of Arturo Fuente Cigars. This cigar is a 3/5 strength and fits in nicely with our range of Arturo Fuente's.

Unlike any other Fuente, the Don Carlos comes with a premium aged Cameroon wrapper. The flagship Fuente Gran Reserva comes with a Cameroon wrapper, but do not mistake those with the Don Carlos. The construction of the Don Carlos is top notch, I would put it's general quality up there with the Opus X line. The wrappers are all uniform and each cigar is well made, I haven't experienced any crooked burns, plugged fillers or any other quality control bungles.
This cigar brings a smoothness and easy draw that is characteristic of Fuente cigars, but gives a little bit of bite from the Cameroon wrapper. It gives a lot of flavor without being a very full bodied cigar. I would put the Don Carlos in the "must try" category like the Opus X. I recommend this cigar to Arturo Fuente fans, people who enjoy lighter cigars but want to try something with more flavor or anybody who is a fan of the Cameroon wrapper. I consider this the best example of a Cameroon wrapper cigar I have tried to date.
