Dominican Sun Grown Rosado Wrapper
The Pussy Cats wears the sun grown rosado wrapper that defines the Opus X line, grown by the Fuente family at Chateau de la Fuente in the Dominican Republic. Opus X was the first Dominican puro to use a Dominican-grown wrapper, and that wrapper remains the blend's defining component.
Beneath the wrapper sit Dominican binder and Dominican filler tobaccos. Every leaf in the cigar comes from the Dominican Republic, which is what makes it a puro rather than a multi-country blend.
For other cigars grown and rolled in the same country, see TRP's Dominican cigars, or browse the full Arturo Fuente Opus X range.
Petit Corona Format, 4.25" x 42
The Pussy Cats measures 4.25 inches with a 42 ring gauge, which places it in the petit corona format. It is one of the smallest cigars Opus X produces, and considerably shorter than the line's more common robusto and double corona sizes.
A 42 ring gauge is roughly 0.66 inches in diameter. Combined with the short length, the format concentrates the blend into a smaller cigar rather than stretching it across a longer smoke, and it fits an hour rather than an evening.
For other cigars in this traditional shape, see TRP's corona cigars.
Full Strength and Listed Flavor Profile
TRP lists the Pussy Cats as FULL strength. The strength classification describes the intensity of the tobacco and is separate from the cigar's individual flavor notes.
TRP's listed profile includes caramel, cream, dried fruit, cinnamon, sweet spice, white pepper, cedar, and citrus tang. These notes represent the product's listed tasting profile rather than a manufacturer-published tasting progression.
The caramel, cream and dried fruit notes give the listed profile its sweeter side, while cinnamon, sweet spice and white pepper carry the spice that Opus X is known for. Reviewers frequently note that the size delivers more strength than its dimensions suggest.

Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia in the Dominican Republic
Opus X is made at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia in Santiago, Dominican Republic. The factory has produced the line since its introduction, and the wrapper is grown on the family's own farm rather than sourced from another country.
Opus X production is limited by the size of that wrapper crop, which is why individual sizes appear and disappear from retailer shelves. The Pussy Cats is one of the formats that reaches the market least often.
TRP carries Opus X across sizes and releases in its rare cigars selection.
Full-Strength Petit Corona for Experienced Smokers
The Pussy Cats suits adult cigar smokers who want the Opus X blend in a short format, and who prefer TRP's full-strength category. Its size makes it a practical choice when there is not time for a longer cigar, though the strength is not reduced to match the dimensions.
For pairing, the listed flavor profile works alongside aged rum, bourbon, Cognac VSOP, single malt Scotch, or anejo tequila. For coffee, TRP lists Cuban espresso, macchiato, dark roast drip coffee, cafe con leche, and Ethiopian pour over as pairing options.
Store the cigar in a properly maintained humidor with stable temperature and humidity rather than exposing it to repeated environmental changes. A stable storage environment helps protect the wrapper and maintain the cigar's intended condition until it is ready to smoke.
TRP's Shipping and Cedarhurst Lounge
