Casa Fuente Orange Band

[rydermonster]

Tonite I smoked a Casa that was given to me and I have been saving for a while. To my dissapointment, the draw was really tight. I had a hard time getting a decent amount of smoke out of it and thus, didnt enjoy the cigar. Just was wondering ig that is the way the cigar was made or I just for the bad apple of the bunch.

You probably had a bad apple or the cigar wasn't stored properly. I've seen it both ways.

My humidor remains at a constant 72/75. I've never had a problem with my other cigars. I guess I just got the bad apple. Thanks.

It may just be me, but seems like 75% is a little too much humidity. I think that may have been the culprit.

My .02 FWIW

Wow... not had a tight draw an pretty much ANY Fuente, let alone the Casa Fuente's. That sucks dude!!!!!

You might want to lower the humidity on that humidor...

I have smoked my fair share of CF and not once had I run into any draw problems. I've had one that tarred up a little bit. Sorry to hear about your dud.

Never had a draw problem either. I would consider keeping the temp under 70 degrees and the humidity between 65% - 68%

Thanks, I'm throwing in some beads to soak up the humidity.
