The Hemingway Short Story is the smallest vitola in Arturo Fuente's Hemingway series, the line that revived the tapered Cuban-style perfecto after Carlos Fuente Sr. recovered the family's old perfecto molds from the Ybor City factory and the first Hemingway reached the market in 1983. Handmade at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia. in the Dominican Republic and finished in genuine African Cameroon leaf, it is one of the most recognizable short cigars in the world and the usual entry point into the Hemingway line.
An African Cameroon wrapper over Dominican binder and Dominican filler tobaccos, handmade at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia. in Santiago, Dominican Republic. The format is a 4" perfecto that Arturo Fuente lists as 42/49 because the shape tapers at both ends, closing in a small nipple foot. Box count: 25 cigars.
A balanced salt-and-pepper character brightened by creamy notes of vanilla, brown sugar, nuts and coffee that segue into a sweet caramel finish. Reviewers also find toasted cedar, baking spice and a roasted-nut core, with the tapered foot concentrating wrapper sweetness through the opening puffs. The draw is lush and the burn even despite the difficulty of the perfecto shape.
Alcoholic: A light beer or a dry white wine. Non-Alcoholic: A light to medium roast coffee.
An ideal quick smoke for any occasion. Allow 25-35 minutes.
