The world of premium cigars is about to get a rare treat. The Fuente Fuente OpusX Rare Black Collection, known for its unpredictable release schedule, is set to make a grand entrance this month. Alongside the cigars, a series of branded accessories will also be available, catering to the discerning aficionado.
Introducing the OpusX Rare Black
You’ve seen Fuente’s black-label ForbiddenX and the Rare Pink line, but have you heard of the OpusX Rare Black? These cigars make infrequent and unannounced appearances, adding to their allure. This month, two sizes of Rare Black cigars will be released, complemented by branded cutters and lighters.
The Cigars: Torpedo and Double Corona
The Rare Black Torpedoes feature the same distinctive tip as the OpusX PerfecXion 888. This collection, part of the Serie “Heaven and Earth” line under the Fuente Aged Selection umbrella, is distributed by Prometheus International. What makes these cigars unique is their age statement. Each cigar in the Aged Selection boasts a vintage band indicating its production year. These cigars are only released twice a year.
This month, expect to see the Fuente Fuente OpusX Rare Black Double Corona and Torpedo. The Double Corona measures 7 5/8 inches by 49 ring gauge, retailing for $67.50 per cigar. The Torpedo, measuring 6 7/8 inches by 44 ring gauge (the same size as the OpusX PerfecXion 888), retails for $62.50 each. Both come packaged in elegant black, 10-count Prometheus travel humidors.
Craftsmanship and Origin
These exquisite cigars are made with Dominican tobacco grown at Chateau de La Fuente and produced at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia in the Dominican Republic. The vintage band on the Double Corona indicates it was rolled in 2017 and has been aging ever since, ensuring a refined smoking experience.
Matching Accessories
For those who want to enjoy their aged smokes with matching accessories, the Aged Black Rare Black cutter will be available for $115. A variety of lighters will also be on offer, including the Prometheus Magma T (triple torch, $189), Magma X (triple torch, $149), Ultimo X (triple torch, $149), and Retro (single torch, $99).
Supporting a Cause
A portion of the proceeds from the Fuente Aged Selection supports the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation. This foundation benefits underprivileged children in the Dominican Republic, adding a layer of philanthropic impact to the luxury of the Rare Black Collection.
The Fuente Fuente OpusX Rare Black Collection represents the pinnacle of aged cigars, combining rarity, craftsmanship, and elegance. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or a cigar enthusiast looking for something special, this month’s release offers a unique opportunity to indulge in a piece of cigar artistry. Don’t miss the chance to experience these exceptional cigars and their accompanying accessories.
