Product description
Want the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story Maduro in El Paso? This little 4 x 48 Perfecto wears a dark Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper over Dominican long-filler. We keep it on the shelf across our 10 neighborhood stores, so you can pick one up the same day.
A short, perfecto-shaped smoke
The Short Story is a Perfecto, so both ends taper to a closed tip. It measures 4 inches with a 48 ring gauge, which makes it a quick smoke for a coffee break or a short drive. The maduro version swaps in a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper for a darker, sweeter character than the natural Short Story. Inside, a Dominican binder holds Dominican long-filler leaf rolled in the Dominican Republic.
What it tastes like
Arturo Fuente built this blend around dark chocolate, freshly ground espresso, and earth, with a buttery, leathery sweetness from the maduro leaf. The body lands medium to full, so it carries more depth than a mild morning cigar without going heavy. These are tasting notes only, the kind cigar folks trade across the counter, not health claims of any kind.

Questions & Answers
What size is the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story Maduro?
It is a 4 inch by 48 ring gauge Perfecto, the smallest size in the Hemingway line. The Perfecto shape tapers at both ends, so the head and foot are closed. It is a short, quick smoke compared with a full-size toro or churchill.
How is the maduro different from the regular Short Story?
The maduro uses a darker Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper instead of the natural Cameroon wrapper on the standard Short Story. That swap brings deeper, sweeter notes of dark chocolate and espresso and a leathery sweetness, while the size, shape, and Dominican fillers stay the same.
Where is the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story Maduro made?
The Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story Maduro is hand-made in the Dominican Republic. It uses a Dominican binder and Dominican long-filler tobacco, finished with a Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper. It is a Dominican premium cigar, not a Cuban one.
How strong is the Short Story Maduro?
It is listed as medium-full in body. That puts it above a mild morning cigar but short of the heaviest full-bodied smokes. The maduro wrapper adds sweetness and depth, giving it more richness than the natural Short Story while staying approachable.
What does the Short Story Maduro taste like?
Expect dark chocolate, freshly ground espresso, earth, and buttery spice, balanced by a leathery sweetness from the maduro wrapper. These are tasting descriptors that cigar smokers use to compare blends, not health or wellness claims. Flavor always varies a little by palate.
How much does it cost at El Paso Smoke Shops?
The Hemingway Short Story Maduro is $8.99 as a single at El Paso Smoke Shops. Check your nearest store for current stock, reserve online, and pick it up the same day with a valid 21+ photo ID at the counter.
Do I need to cut the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story Maduro before smoking it?
Because it is a Perfecto with a closed, tapered head, you make a small cut at the tip before lighting. A straight or punch cut both work well on the narrow head. Our hosts can point you to cutters and lighters kept on the shelf in store.
Can I buy the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story Maduro in El Paso for same-day pickup?
Yes. We stock the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story Maduro at all 10 El Paso Smoke Shops locations. Check live store stock online, reserve your single, and pick it up the same day. In-store pickup only, no shipping from this listing.
How long does it take to smoke?
At 4 inches by 48 ring gauge it is a short cigar, so most people finish it in roughly 30 to 45 minutes depending on pace. That makes it a good choice for a coffee break or a shorter window when a full-size cigar is too long.
