#46 Anejo

phobicsquirrel

Well I had my frist Anejo, well other than the #77 I had back a while ago. I very mild stick, lots of flavor and not much pepper. Well the pepper sort of peaked out after the last half. Not as strong as the Opus that's for sure. Draw was easy and lots of smoke. Flavor was more pronounced through the nose (cocoa, wood, earth, spice). Had a leather/pepper taste that lingered. Went out 2 times but it was because I wasn't paying attention to it. It burned rather well though. The aroma was sweet until about half way into it, then it moved to more of a spice. It tasted much different than the Shark did. I really want to light up the others but I must show restraint. I did notice that it had to be puffed on more, about 40 seconds or so to keep things going, so it's a fast stick. I'm eying a box of #50's, so I hope I can jump on that. A good smoke.

You are making me want burn that Shark i got from you in that most glorious trade we did sometime back. Still have it and all its Fuente siblings sitting in a nice neat row waiting on judgement day, Birthday is near, so I bet at least one goes up in smoke.

Nice review Squirrel. Only had one Anejo so far and I think it was the 48. I remember it being very mild as well and just so-so in the flavor department. Very strong cedar flavor, but not much else to it. I've got a few that have been sitting for a while now. I'll have to try one soon.

Overall I say fuente has made some damn good cigars.

I'd tend to agree, but I also question whether they are worth what they sell for. I haven't been blown away by any high-end Fuentes yet.

true, though if you can find them lower than an inflated price then I think they are worth it.
