This week we are photographing and reviewing the Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario 2007<\/strong> robusto vitola – released under Fuente Aged Selection and produced in Dominican Republic at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia<\/em>. Year 2006 was the 30th anniversary of the Don Carlos cigars created by the patriarch of the Fuente family, Carlos Fuente, Sr. In 2006, in a tribute to his father, Carlito Fuente created the Don Carlos 30th Anniversary cigars – the Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario. The fillers and binders are Dominican tobaccos. They are wrapped in the shade-grown tobaccos from Chateau de la Fuente<\/em>, same tobaccos one will find on the Fuente Fuente OpusX. The Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario has been released in relatively limited quantity since its inception in 2006. A total of 22,500 Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario cigars were shipped to the authorized Fuente Aged Selection dealers in May 2012. The next release will be in the spring of 2013.

<\/br>
\nVisually, the Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario 2007\u00a0robusto is simply a thing of beauty:\u00a0slightly box-pressed finish, tripple\u00a0capped, well blended seams, invisible veins, light & smooth wrapper. On the “cover”: attractive main Don Carlos band with a secondary 2007 designation band. The bottom half wrapped in well applied cedar. Construction and burn wise, more\u00a0accolades:\u00a0 light and tight ash (as depicted below), great smoke output, and\u00a0excellent draw throughout the entire experience. In flavor department: noticeable cedar,\u00a0cubanesque\u00a0hints, nuttiness, a touch of caramel and increasing spice.
\n<\/br>
\nOverall, good experience. Good flavors, excellent construction, exceptional packaging. To get the best out of this cigar, I strongly recommend not rushing through it. Take your time and enjoy the complexity of the Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario 2007\u00a0which in my personal experience, wasn’t that simple to\u00a0dissect.\u00a0If rushed, especially in the last third, the nicotine kick will sneak up on you ! It did in the third sample I have smoked. Would I recommend the cigar ? – Yes. Is it an everyday smoke ? – Far from it. The price tag will scare\u00a0plenty\u00a0of cigar smokers but at the end of the day, your wallet will dictate\u00a0Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario’s success.
