Arturo Fuente Especiales from March 2023. $2.50 on a nice promotional. Typically $5.

"Mixed-filler blend of rich-tasting Dominican tobaccos, wrapped in a savory, sun-kissed Habano wrapper leaf grown in Ecuador exclusively for Arturo Fuente by the Oliva Tobacco family. The medium-bodied smoke is well-balanced notes of cedar, oak, roasted nuts, and sweet tobacco."

Oct '23 Victor Sinclair Fumas (Lonsdale).
A mixed filler Dominican, with an Maduro wrapper.

At less than $1 (on sale), these are nearly the cheapest sticks in the collection, but they're tasty ! More than a year in the humidor has improved the smokeability.

You know you want one.
