smoked one tonight, and all i can say is wow. what a great smoke!
I like some strong smokes and it is on my to try list. Have to pick one up from the b&m. Any suggestions on a specific vitola?
My favorite is the toro (FT153). The only one I didn't care for too much was the Avion, may have just been a bad stick but the draw way too loose for me.
It's funny, the Avion is the only Fausto that has really done it for me. The others have been fine, but just not anything that blew me away.
glad that is one I picked up! Don't know if it's the one I'm gonna lead odd with for the holiday since it's supposed to be strong but maybe it will be the second.

A combination of a Jamie Garcia le, avian, and jack daniels put me at mu limit tonight...can usually smoke many more so I would say it's potent. It's not overly peppery or too strong in flavor after a 3 or so month nap but it seems full bodied. Pretty good stick for my first go around with it.
I LOVE this cigar. Tried one a little while ago, the robusto, and man it was great! I didn't find it particularly strong, I smoked it later in the evening and wasn't too full or anything. Great dark earthy flavors with just a little spice and lots of coffee. I rarely smoke cigars down alllll the way, especially the stronger ones, but I did not want this one to end. Fantastic! I hope the next is just as good. I can see grabbing a few more, then maybe a box in the future!
I've only had the Avion so far and I thought it was fantastic, they did a great job of replicating the T110 blend. Speaking of which, a funny thing I noticed about the original T110 was that initially it was not super strong, after about a year of rest the potency increased by a great margin...so perhaps with some rest, the Fausto will gain strength, just a thought based on my experience with the original.
Interesting, I bought this one not knowing how long it had been in the store. Half full box so probably not too long. I thought it was perfect! I'd love to have a box of cigars that are so good with no real age necessary. Now I want to see if they'll get stronger too. I really want to get a few more this week!
