Chateau Fuente King B?

[jcgoldner]

I was at Holt's today picking up my 2 Anjeo Sharks when they asked me if I'd seen the new Fuente King B. I didn't know anything about this one so I thought I'd ask here. It's a 5-¾" x 52 torpedo that's wrapped in cedar with a black ribbon at the foot of the cigar. Anyone seen or smoked this yet?

It's a very rare smoke and people are searching for them. You should pick some more up and offer them up to some bros who might be looking :thumbsup:

[jcgoldner]

Thanks for the link. I did actually find this after I made my post. I forgot to search first and ask questions second.

Ok info has been found, now has anyone tried one?

Good idea Cliff! Anyone interested in this?

I'll check tomorrow if they put a daily limit on these like they do on the Anejo. BTW the King B was $6.10.

[rpb67]

I will try one or two if you can get them .

Much appreciated.

What time are you leaving?

Can't make it this weekend. Going to try and get there during the week after work.

[jcgoldner]

Alright then, let me know when you're going and I'll try and meet you there.

I picked up a couple more King B for rpb67 today. I was a little shocked when I went in and they were gone from the case I got them from yesterday but they had more in storage. They also raised the price to $6.50 each from $6.10 yesterday. I'm not sure who was right as I had two different sales people and I wasn't going to quibble over it.

I'll take 2 if possible...

[jcgoldner]

I'll try and go back on Monday so I'll let you know Rob.

[indyrob]

Thanks...I really appreciate it.

Ive never ordered from Holt's yet...

[indyrob]

I think these guys are going to Holts, not ordering from them. I looked at Holt's site and couldn't find the B's so it must be an in store purchase only.

I smoked one at Edwards, and I don't think I will give this stick another chance. The draw was way to easy, and it burned very hot. It tasted bland like paper, and it was very harsh. I hope you guys like them, but, for me, it was not a good smoking experience.

[rpb67]

I have two of these bad boys on the way.

Thanks to a very nice Botl !! :blob:

I stopped by my local shop today and bought one out of curiosity. $9.00 IIRC. Saw this thread, and there's probably a dozen or so left, and if anybody wants one I'll pick some up on Thursday when i get my paycheck. They also have BTLs and Maduro Untold Stories and a couple Anejos...

I smoked one last night and what a great smoke, but it is very wet from the humipack they stick in the box. They need to sit and acclamate at a reg. temp and humidity for a while. If you sipped it, or smoked it very slowly, the flavors really jumped out. The cherry did burn very hot, so you had to let that catch up to the rest of the smoke. It reminded me of an 858 rosado. Very soft spcices and a very subltle sweetness like a cammeroon wrapper. The aroma was was nice in full. The last third seemed to pick up in nicotine. OVer all, with some time, this will be a great smoke, as long as its smoked slowly or you will miss all the variation of flavors.
