Don Carlos is personal. Carlos Fuente Jr. blended it for his father, Carlos Fuente Sr., and named it for him. The Don Carlos by Arturo Fuente Belicoso (5 3/8 x 52) is the size most people know, and Cigar Aficionado named it the No. 4 Cigar of 2015, rated 94.
A toothy African Cameroon wrapper covers aged Dominican binder and filler, handmade in the Dominican Republic. Cameroon brings a natural sweetness that sits over cedar, roasted nuts and sweet spice, with a light earthiness underneath. Medium-full, balanced and never loud about it. The tapered belicoso head concentrates all of that. About 60 minutes, a Power Hour™ smoke on the Burn Clock.
This is the cigar for a dinner that went well or a deal that closed. Aged rum or cognac matches it; so does a good espresso. Boxes of 25. Explore more Arturo Fuente cigars and Cameroon cigars.
