Fuente Fuente OpusX Original Fuente Fuente

Fuente Fuente is a five-and-five-eighths-inch original OpusX with a 46 ring gauge. Its repeated Fuente name belongs to the specific cigar as well as appearing in the wider Fuente Fuente OpusX brand name. Within the original expression, Robusto is shorter and wider; PerfecXion X is longer and slightly broader. The cigar belongs to OpusX’s Dominican puro expression. Dominican tobacco forms the wrapper, binder and filler, with the wrapper-growing work at Chateau de la Fuente providing the family’s central origin story. Angel’s Share and Oro Oscuro each include Fuente Fuente at matching dimensions. Their respective emphasis on middle-priming wrapper and additional wrapper processing makes this one of the clearest shared formats for comparing the three expressions’ documented tobacco identities.
