Fuente Fuente OpusX Original Belicoso XXX

Belicoso XXX places the original OpusX blend in the collection’s shortest named format. At four and five eighths inches with a 49 ring gauge, it is compact but considerably wider than the nearby PerfecXion No. 5. Its proportions distinguish it from the longer, broader Super Belicoso. The original expression’s defining feature is its Dominican tobacco composition, including wrapper grown at Chateau de la Fuente. Fuente’s account centers on Carlito Fuente’s work establishing Dominican wrapper production. In cigar terminology, the resulting all-Dominican wrapper, binder and filler make this expression a puro. Oro Oscuro also includes a Belicoso XXX at these dimensions. Its darker, additionally processed wrapper provides a specific tobacco distinction between the two expressions in the same nominal format.
