Cigar Review for Arturo Fuente Flor Fina 8-5-8
My Review
Some pretty good flavors right at the beginning, I really good draw getting some Woody notes some cedar maybe but some other stuff too like a very mellow version of cedar. After a very good start.
36 minutes in about to hit the label. The flavors are really complex and delicious. Very good price point at the about 10 bucks a stick for this this is definitely something I could smoke on a regular basis.
