Arturo Fuente Rare Pink Short Story

Arturo Fuente Rare Pink Short Story

Arturo Fuente Rare Pink Short Story 1600 900 Michel Arlia

The Arturo Fuente’s Rare Pink line was introduced last year and has been a highly sought-after release. Although this is a regular production release, it is a special one. Not only does the blend include some of Fuente’s own tobaccos from their Nicaraguan farms, but Fuente also donates $13 per sold box to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

All seven sizes of the line come in a Perfecto shape, with the Short Story being, as the name suggests, the smallest one.

The shape and the updated color scheme for the band make for a visually very appealing cigar. The bands cover most of this small cigar, but the visible part reveals a Colorado wrapper with a few small veins. Construction is good.

Arturo Fuente Rare Pink Short Pink

Arturo Fuente Rare Pink Short Story: the cold reveals aromas of wood and hay. Once lit, the cigar opens with light notes of creamy wood, with a mix of spices.

As soon as the burn line passes the tapered part, the cigar starts to open up, and wood, hazelnut, and black pepper are the primary flavors in the first half. Leather and cream notes are lingering in the background. Strength is medium-light (2/5).

An herbal note appears next to the hazelnut, wood, and black pepper in the second half. The leather and cream notes have disappeared completely. The last couple of puffs become spicy. Strength is now medium (3/5).

Overall, the Arturo Fuente Rare Pink Short Story is a flavorful little smoke. While the profile isn’t the broadest, but considering the time it takes to smoke it, the flavors are well outlined and balanced.
