Perhaps the rarest and highest rated brand in the world, the OpusX has a world-renowned reputation for quality and class. It is full bodied with a rich and robust flavor.

The Fuente OpusX is one of the rarest cigars in the world. It is elusive to almost every smoker because of its limited production. Prior to 1990 the Dominican Republic was well know for its filler and binder tobacco. Growing wrapper tobacco on the island proved impossible due to the topography of the land and the wind. The wrapper is a vital component of any cigar as it contributes to most of the flavor. Carlos Fuente Jr. set out on a mission to be the first cigar maker in the Dominican Republic to successfully grow wrapper tobacco. With the help of cheesecloths to protect the tobacco from the elements, the first successful crop was turned out in 1992. This wrapper is matched with unparalleled vintage tobaccos for its filler and binder and was the first Dominican puro (all Dominican cigar) on the market.



Bidding starts at $15.00
S&H $7.00

Hey, Tara, it was great bidding with you on BT. Lots of fun and the money goes to a good cause.

Joe would flip if he could see this tread but he won't! LOL. He'll just receive the cigar as a gift.

I hope you didin't toss another bid in on me! LOL. CArole
