Description
The Fuente Fuente Opus X Opus6 Blue is a six-cigar Aged Selection sampler in a blue lacquer "Father and Son" travel humidor by Prometheus. The lid of this set is marked "Limited Edition November 2024," and each cigar carries a 2021 vintage band, the year it was rolled before aging. All six are made by the Fuente family at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia in the Dominican Republic.
What's in the Opus6 Blue
The set holds one each of six cigars:
- Fuente Fuente OpusX Love Affair
- Fuente Fuente OpusX Magnum O
- Fuente Fuente OpusX Tiger Shark
- Fuente Fuente OpusX Tauros the Bull, a toro named for the Taurus sign Carlito Fuente shares with his father. See the single.
- Don Arturo Gran AniverXario Churchill, the only non-OpusX cigar in the set, wearing the Don Arturo portrait band.
- Fuente Fuente OpusX Lancero, the longest and slimmest, with a pigtail cap.
Blend and Wrappers
Every cigar is Dominican, and the OpusX cigars use wrapper grown at the Fuente family's Chateau de la Fuente farm. Because the box mixes OpusX with a Don Arturo, and Fuente does not publish the complete blend for each cigar, the wrapper, binder and filler on this listing are shown as varies.
Sizes in the Box
The six cigars step up in length from a short figurado to a long lancero, with a robusto, belicoso, toro and churchill in between, so the set covers almost every common shape in one humidor.
Strength and Flavor
TRP lists the Opus6 Blue as medium to full overall. Expect the cedar, pepper, leather and cocoa OpusX is known for, with the Don Arturo offering a slightly different, rounder profile. Flavor notes: Cedar, black pepper, leather, cocoa, roasted nuts, earth, baking spice.
Who It's For
The Opus6 Blue suits OpusX fans who want to try several shapes they may never find as singles, and makes a strong gift since it arrives in its own humidor. Start with the shorter cigars and save the lancero and churchill for longer sessions. Coffee pairings: Espresso, Café Cubano, Cortado, Cappuccino, Dark roast French. Spirit pairings: Bourbon, Cognac, Aged rum, Rye whiskey, Tawny port. Keep the cigars at 65 to 70 percent humidity, and add a humidification pack if you plan to store them in the travel humidor.
