The Arturo Fuente Rosado Sungrown series is another masterpiece from the Fuente family in its pursuit of "aged aesthetics." The Magnum R 58 is renowned for its robust 58 ring gauge, its core essence lying in its nearly ten-year-aged, reddish-brown Sumatra wrapper from Ecuador. This cigar doesn't win with its overwhelming power, but rather with its exceptionally delicate, creamy smoothness and complex balance of sweet and spicy, setting it apart from other large cigars.

Flavor Ladder
Initial impressions: The first taste is characterized by its signature creamy texture and delicate cedarwood aroma. The 58 ring diameter delivers an exceptionally impressive amount of vapor, and the flavor is smooth and mellow. Mid-section: As the aged wrapper kicks in, it reveals delicate aromas of dried fruit, cinnamon, and a subtle earthy fragrance, with a moderate sweetness and an extremely subtle hint of white pepper. Finish: The aroma of nuts, oils and leather emerges at the end, maintaining a high degree of purity even at the very end, without any spicy or off-flavors, making it extremely elegant.
Reasons for recommendation
- Ten Years of Aging Essence: Made with Rosado wrapper aged for nearly 10 years from the Fuente family’s private stock, this extremely rare tobacco gives the cigar an alluring reddish-brown hue and a silky smooth smoking experience.
- The gentleness of a heavy size: Despite its imposing appearance with a 58 ring gauge, its flavor is medium-bodied, making it perfect for cigar smokers who enjoy a lot of smoke and a strong ash but also seek a delicate taste.
- Structural Artwork: Arturo Fuente's rolling process is perfectly embodied in the Magnum R series. Even with a huge ring diameter, the suction resistance is just right, and the burn line is extremely flat.
- All-day companion: With its excellent balance, this cigar is perfect as a start to a leisurely morning or as a relaxing treat after dinner, making it a high-value upgrade in the Fuente family.
The Arturo Fuente Magnum R 58 is a cigar that perfectly blends "grand" and "refined," proving that a high ring gauge can also possess a delicate and complex heart.
