Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Personal Reserve Robusto

Tasting Notes:

#1 Cigar of the Year 2017
97/100
- Cigar Aficionado

"In addition to the range of baking spices and citrus notes found in most Don Carlos cigars, each puff communicates additional layers of complexity, kind of like a bonus track to a favorite album or an unexpected epilogue at the end of a classic novel. More intonations of nuts and leather unfold before a warm, lingering finish of cedar and cider. Simply put: we did not want this cigar to end."
