Shark, but not an Anejo? - Cigar Asylum Cigar Forum

I'm bewildered. Looks like a shark, but it's not an Anejo?

Can someone tell me what this cigar by Fuente is please?

I think that is a Don Carlos Belicoso. I've got a box. Very good smoke

It's a don carlos shark. You can see the box press on it towards the bottom. They are an un-released cigar that came out around 2001.

BTW, that's more of a collectors item but it would be cool to smoke it.

I sent the link to Andrew (moki) and he said this is the newer one that uses the Anejo No.77 mold. It is still rare as they are primarily made for Wayne... :-)

I would agree because the size is that of a 77. The ring guage is bigger than 46. I was told this came from Wayne personally. :-)

I see. Sounds like someone I'd like to know. Sounds like someone I'd never know as well.

Thanks for the info guys.

Don't do a thing with it. Pack it up and send it north. Sharks cannot survive up here, and I'll happily dispose of it carefully for you.

I don't want you harmed by this.
