Description
The Arturo Fuente Chateau Fuente Sun Grown is a premium handmade cigar renowned for its quality, construction, and balanced flavor profile. It is part of the wider Chateau Fuente Series, which also includes Natural and Maduro options, but the Sun Grown variety is notable for several distinguishing features:
-
: The cigar is rolled with a rich, spicy Ecuadorian sun-grown wrapper that adds depth and aromatic complexity, resulting in a more robust and slightly stronger profile than its Natural and Maduro counterparts. The wrapper's spice and aroma combine especially well with the blend’s cedar sleeve, imparting a woodsy nuance.
-
: Both binder and filler tobaccos are aged Dominican estate-grown leaves, cultivated at Chateau de la Fuente in the Dominican Republic
-
: The classic Chateau Fuente Sun Grown is a robusto, measuring 4 1/2 x 50
-
: Expect a medium-to-full body, with reviewers noting notes of coffee bean, cocoa, cedar, earth, leather, white pepper, cinnamon, and dried berries. Early puffs might be spicy and tangy, while the flavor can evolve into sweet berry and toffee notes, balanced by underlying earth and pepper. The wood and cedar elements are further enhanced by the cigar’s cedar sleeve, especially if the cigar is aged
-
: The Chateau Fuente Sun Grown is known for impeccable construction, delivering an even burn, ideal draw, and thick, aromatic smoke. It is commonly praised for its consistency and accessibility to both novice and experienced smokers
-
: The cigar is often described as an aromatic, richly flavored, and reliably constructed smoke that serves well as an "end-of-the-day" cigar or even a satisfying morning complement, particularly with coffee
The Sun Grown is widely seen as one of Arturo Fuente's most popular and best-selling blends, earning loyal fans for its approachable price, high quality, and versatile profile.
