Hemingway Classic Natural

By Arturo Fuente

The Hemingway Classic is the largest vitola in the standard Hemingway lineup at 7 x 47, a Churchill perfecto that demands a significant time commitment and rewards a patient cadence. The perfecto taper at both ends is one of the most demanding shapes in the roller's repertoire, and production is limited to a small number of torcedores at the Fuente factory in the Dominican Republic who have mastered the technique. The Hemingway series was among the first modern lines to reintroduce this classic Cuban shape to the American market at scale, and the Classic remains its most ambitious expression within the standard line. The blend is aged Dominican binder and filler under an African Cameroon wrapper, aged at Chateau Fuente before release. Handmade in the Dominican Republic.
