Arturo Fuente Casa Cuba Doble Cinco

Today we have the Arturo Fuente Casa Cuba Doble Cinco.  This cigar won the poll for which cigar i should review next. This light brown cigar has slightly visible veins and seems.  It comes in at 5 X 50.  At first light the draw has a creamy textured cedar note accompanied by some smooth black pepper flavor and tingle sensation.  The finish is short and has the same flavor notes as the draw.  The flavors are not lasting very long on the finish and the smoke is at a mild to medium body.  The draw is near perfect with just the right amount of resistance.  The burn and construction through the first inch is flawless.

Just over and inch down and some slight changes start to happen.  The draw still has the creamy textured cedar note with the black pepper flavor and tingle sensation.  The finish has a creamy textured cedar and sweetness accompanied by a sharp leather that is the flavor that's left on the palate till the next draw.  The body is now at a solid medium.  The draw and burn are still near perfect.

With just over an inch left the cigar is starting to get warm.  Most of the flavors have been washed out by a chard tobacco and pepper tingle sensation.  I sat the cigar down for the last time at the one 1 hour and 10 minute mark.  This cigar didn't have a lot of complexity but the flavors were very creamy and smooth and very relaxing.  Overall, this was a very good cigar!
