Cheap Stick Shootout: Fuente vs. Thompson Cigar Review
Posted on Thursday, April 30, 2009 in Cigar Reviews
Today is a double-feature: the Thompson Empressario Natural Churchill & the Arturo Fuente Curlyhead. In short, these two smokes are a hit and miss combo. The Empressario is just a letdown dog rocket, while the Curlyhead *can* be an OK mild smoke, your experience however WILL vary stick to stick per the nature of the beast, being a scrap short filler cigar.

One thing about the Curlyhead which further explains its inconsistencies is that they are rolled by apprentice rollers.
I suspected that as well!
Now that’s what I call taking one for the team, your a brave soul
I have tried cigars you have reviewed and found then enjoyable, but I’m staying away from these. I laughed my a## off when the Thompon hit the floor. Go get a good one out of the humi and relax. You most certainly took one for the team.
“Yonder on the floor is the Thompson…” I loved that, made me laugh my @#@ off. Hope you didn’t have too bad of an after taste from these smokes!
Said it before, will say it again and will KEEP saying it – Perdomo Fresco
Of course the Ambos Mundos is just awesome for the price, but then we are not talking an under $2 stick like the Fresco
Way to take one for the cigar community!!
