The Hemingway Classic was my first favorite cigar.  Had one last night for the first time in many, many years.  It was not good :(

Have you tried the untold story in this line - pretty good. Also one of my fav AF was the eye of the shark. Hated that it was ranked so high they became impossible to get but come across a few here and there.

Work of Art is my favorite of the Hemingway line. It's been a humidor mainstay for years now.

I very much like the Classic I had a few weeks ago. I'm sorry to hear that!

Not yet. Thank you for the recommendation. I will look to try both in the future.

Interesting. Thank you for the feedback.

I liked the last short storys I had flavor wise  but they were plagued with construction issues.

Again, I'm sorry to hear. There's nothing worse (okay, perhaps an underfilled cigar!)

Hi John, 

A couple of other "regular" AFs you may enjoy trying are the Casa Cuba Divine Inspiration and the 8-9-8 Flor Fina Sungrown Rosados.  While neither will "knock your socks off" (like a shark or Opus or even a Don Carlos Reserva), I find those two cigar lines to be reliably tasty and pleasant with much more complexity than most NC's in their price range.  The former are delicious right away IMO; however, the 8-9-8's only truly shine after a year or much more (like many of the better AFs).  (All subjective opinions of course :)

BTW - I have to say again how much I always appreciate your thoughtful, insightful and entertaining reviews.

All the best, 

  • Thanks 1

@JohnS to be fair about the Hemingway Short Story,the humidity has been on the high side here this year so I attributed that as part of it,but my cuaba divinos smoked just fine,they are like little twins. I would buy more of these in a heartbeat. They are a great morning smoke,.
