Hemingway Best Seller Maduro

By Arturo Fuente

The Hemingway series has been in continuous production since Carlos Fuente Sr. introduced it in 1983, reviving Cuban perfecto shapes his father Arturo had worked with decades earlier. The Best Seller Maduro carries the same tapered perfecto proportions as the natural at 4.5 inches with a ring gauge running from 43 at the head to 55 at the belly, dressed in a dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper in place of the traditional Cameroon. The Broadleaf contributes additional body and a heavier character than the natural version. Released in limited quantities seasonally. Handmade in the Dominican Republic.
