Jan 25th 2012 - Arturo Fuente Gran Reserva

Today brings us the Arturo Fuente Gran Reserva Maduro Exquisito in a 4.6x30 vitola. Arturo Fuente is regarded as one of the best brands in the industry. Known mainly for their super premium cigars today brings us a value priced regular production cigar. The Gran Reserva line comes in all sorts of sizes for any and all. The Gran Reserva Maduro features Dominican fillers and binder and has a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper. It is a spicy, sweet, woody and earthy cigar with an earthy core. I chose this today to remember the life and times of Al Capone. In an age of gangsters you were hard pressed to find one that caused more fear or commanded more respect than Al Capone. It was on this day in 1947 that Al Capone passed away.
