They’re great smokes to enjoy morning, noon or night, and they pair brilliantly with a myriad of beverages. So, today we’re going to celebrate the wonders of mellow bodied cigars with the top rated mellow cigars for 2022. ![](https://d25bsrltkk1hnl.cloudfront.net/public/cigarworld/prod/BoxImages/Arturo-Fuente-Gran-Reserva-box-image.jpg) ### **Arturo Fuente Gran Reserva** Gran Reserva from Arturo Fuente is a mellow cigar that boasts a beautiful construction and enticingly smooth draw.

These are enjoyable everyday smokes to have in the humidor on the days you just need to get a smoke in to make the week more enjoyable. The weekends are for the medium and bold sticks with some good whiskey. - [![Member Avatar](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/b24e8229b6c676f053357abeebdaf1b4?s=180&d=mp&r=g)](/profile/member/max-the-pug/) ### 6 Max the Pug (5 years ago) Rocky Patel The Edge - [![Member Avatar](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/0eb8765b8534e6f7d20a9b8f9461716b?s=180&d=mp&r=g)](/profile/member/johnnyboy07/) ### 5 Johnnyboy07 (5 years ago) Cao Gold!! - [![Member Avatar](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/a98b0467c576648c5e702b6a281b0aa3?s=180&d=mp&r=g)](/profile/member/bub/) ### 1 Bub (5 years ago) *Monte Cristo classic* No one has commented on this page yet.
