Arturo Fuente Anejo Reserva No. 888 6 5/8 x 44

Description The No. 888 is among the most refined vitolas in the Anejo Reserva collection, its narrow 44 ring gauge placing the cognac-aged Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper at the forefront of every draw. The wrapper itself is dark, oily, and visually striking — a testament to the extended barrel-aging process that defines this line. From the first light, dark cocoa and a subtle dried fruit sweetness emerge with exceptional clarity, the slim format ensuring the wrapper’s character dominates throughout. The mid-section introduces roasted espresso and a delicate vanilla note, remnants of the cognac influence threading through the Dominican tobacco blend. The finish is long, dry, and polished, with a restrained warmth on the retrohale. Construction is flawless, with a razor-straight burn and effortless draw. The No. 888 is best reserved for a contemplative evening paired with a fine Armagnac or a light, aged bourbon. • Wrapper: Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro (cognac-aged) • Binder: Dominican • Filler: Dominican • Size: 6 5/8 x 44 • Country of Origin: Dominican Republic
