The Arturo Fuente Sun Grown line-up of cigars is easy to spot thanks to the black-trim band and these Chateau sticks are the robusto contribution to the mix. The cigars themselves are the same as the Gran Reserva line-up when it comes to filler tobacco and binder but the dark sun-grown Ecuadorian wrapper leaf is what makes all the difference.

These Robusto (4 1/2″ x 50) sticks are handmade in the Dominican Republic and are by most accounts a medium-strenghth and medium-bodied cigar.

From one of the most iconic names in cigar-making, don’t be afraid to try these sun grown sticks and compare them directly to the Gran Reserva line-up. If you’re looking to get an idea of just what role a wrapper plays in the overall cigar experience, there may be no finer way to find out!
