This was our cigar for the February Herfers.com Herf. It was a very good smoke. The cigar was light and I tasted hints of vanilla cream, a slight woody taste that I couldn’t really recognize, and towards the end I was tasting a touch of pepper. The vanilla cream taste lasted through the entire cigar and it never got hot at the end. There was plenty of smoke, it burned evenly and I never had to re-light it.
I got 5 sticks for the herfers.com exchange, and I look forward to smoking the other 4 of these.

Indian Tabac Super Fuerte cigars offer a rich, complex-tasting, box-pressed edition with a nutty flavor, extraordinary balance, and no bite.
I didn’t taste anything specific in this cigar. The flavor was good, but I couldn’t really place it. Perhaps it was nutty, I didn’t taste it all that well. But I do like the smoke alot, it was better than the Indian Tabac Buffalo that I smoked last and not as harsh as the Indian Tabac Super Fuerte Maduro that was my first smoke.
I bought a 5-pack of these and I will definitely look forward to smoking another one.

So this is only my second Indian Tabac to smoke and I wanted to try a more mild cigar because this last one that I smoked was their Super Fuerte Maduro and it was quite dark and bold, almost a little too much, but I will probably smoke one again someday anyway.
This cigar is made in Nestor Plasencia’s Honduran factory, each is draped in cedar, concealing a flawless, Connecticut-seed wrapper leaf underneath. This leaf is grown under Ecuador’s natural mountain mist, yielding an exceedingly smooth wrapper with an oily sheen, yet I found that the wrapper flaked off at the tip after I cut it.
Quite frankly, since the maduro smoke was so bold and heavy, I expected more from this lighter stick. I liked the flavor and the draw was quite good, plenty of smoke, it just wasn’t as heavy as I was hoping. My next purchase will probably be the Natural wrapper, which is between this one and the Super Fuerte.
I’ll rate this cigar at a B. This would be a good smoke for someone who likes lighter cigars or perhaps a beginning smoker.

Super Fuerte means super strong, and this cigar was definitely strong. It started somewhat bitter, though not too much, and was full of smoke and a hearty, maduro full-flavor. This Vitola measures 6×52 and are hand-made in Honduras, with filler from Honduras, Nicaragua and Costa Rica. It burned quite evenly. About 1/5 of the way into the cigar, the bitterness went away and I got just a very deep, dark, maduro mouth full of smoke.
Frankly this smoke was a little heavy for me. I like Maduro cigars most of the time, but this was just a little too much. I am very interested to try their Natural wrapper cigar because the flavor of the Maduro was quite nice, just a tad too strong for my tastes. I’d rate this smoke at a B+.
