Prev weekend a friend of mine went to Vegas and while he was there he picked up for me 4 Arturo Fuente Casa Fuente Robusto's. So I finally gave in today and smoked one while I was grilling my steaks outside (on of my favorite ways to enjoy a cigar)
The pre light fragrance was lighter than my opi super belis, but the signature Fuente smell was there. The draw was nice and easy, light it up and smoked away. The ash held on half way through before I bumped it off (didnt want to get ash on my steaks).
The construction of the cigar was great, burned very well and evenly. Now the taste was good, not as strong as a Opusx, or even a Hemingway, like many others have said Opus X Light. Still very tastefull, and got even more flavorfull at the end. This was a nice change in for me at least. I usually like the stronger more robust flavors.
I would recommend that if you had the chance to give one a try, but they sure are spendy $21.00 a stick. Sadly I have only 3 left now and must stock pile those bad boys along with my other Fuente stash for special occasion.
Fuente Ho and you know it.
