Hemingway Short Story Natural

By Arturo Fuente

The Hemingway series was introduced in 1983 by Carlos Fuente Sr. as a tribute to the classic Cuban perfecto shapes his father Arturo had worked with decades earlier. The Short Story is the smallest vitola in the standard lineup at 4 x 49, and in many ways the most democratic entry point into the series. At under an hour it fits the pace of a workday break or a quick afternoon smoke without asking much of the clock. The petite proportions concentrate the aged Dominican binder and filler under an African Cameroon wrapper into a compact, front loaded smoke that delivers the full character of the Hemingway blend in a fraction of the time. Its approachability has made it one of the most consistently sought after cigars in the entire Fuente portfolio and one of the harder sizes to keep in stock. Handmade in the Dominican Republic.
