"Excellent smoke..would be great in 60"
Its a Fuente, need to say more...the only way to make this stick better is to up the ring gauge to a size 60

"Great cigar! My favorite after dinner smoke."
Many an evening spent relaxing with a Royal Salute Sun Grown after dinner.

"A real "Beauty" in Looks, Packaging and Taste!"
A smooth mellow smoke from start to the end when I finally had to give it up to avoid "Finger Burn"! This one will always be at the top of my "Wish List".

"Great taste,good draw,quality construction,and dec"
The only concern I have about my favorite smoke,Royal Salute Sun Grown,is that they are not the advertised 54 ring gauge. Why? The taste ,burn,and construction are all first rate!

"Blackhorse SEZ: One of the Greats!"
Those Double Chateaus are good alright, but not as good as these. I think the Chateau's higher rating is a function of those boys just never having tried a Royal Salute - or they would surely go back and correct their scores (if such a thing were possible). Like the Excalibur No. 1 Maduro and the Prensado (Oscuro)...the Fuente Hemingway Classic...the Punch Chatteau "L" Oscuro...the Torano Tribute, Silver, Gold, Signature, (well, pretty much all the Toranos!!!...the Royal Salute exists in a rarified class...world class!

"Better than gold"
Just tried my first box of the Sun Grown, have been a Salute/Maduro man for years. I'm hooked. Just ordered two more boxes. This has a good flavor and an easy draw.

"literally a work of art"
This cigar is truly a masterpiese in all aspects of cigar making, Arturo is certainly the Leonardo D'avinci of the tobacco industry
a true antropreneaur, the quality is superb, and the price outstanding for such a great smoke, and if you like a full body cigar,there's none better
along with the Ashton VSG another Fuente jewel.
Mr. Fuente, my compliments on your magnificent work.

"Best luxury smoke for the price"
I smoke Excalibur #1...actually the Honduran Bundle 2nds as my every day (can't beat the quality and value)....but one of my favorite "occasion" butts is the Fuente Sun-grown (any model, but the Double shat & Royal salute are the size I prefer).
Full flavor Fuente quality all the way, every way as good as there Hemmingways and Opus X at a grat price.
