The Arturo Fuente Opus X La Edicion De La Sociedad is not just a salute to the top shelf Fuente Fuente Opus X, it is among the most coveted offerings in the Opus lineup. The undisclosed blend features a rich, oily, dark, rugged wrapper leaf which comes as a collaboration between Carlito Fuente Jr. and Manny Iriarte. The experience features a surprisingly creamy flavor with carefully balanced notes of earth, cedar, and mild pepper. The blend presents with medium strength that offers a spectacular presence for the discerning aficionado, yet is attainable for the up and coming cigar lover.
This cigar is produced at Tabacalera Fuente in the Dominican Republic, and features an undisclosed blend of Fuente's choice tobaccos to achieve perfect consistency. Carlos Fuente Jr. describes the blend as having "the Fuente signature style but deep and earthy" with "a different tweak to the blend." Each 20 count box of Opus X La Edicion De La Sociedad comes packed in a solid Spanish Cedar Limited Production Humidor with an Opus X Certificate of Authenticity.
On the strength scale, the Opus X Society leans toward medium to full-bodied, with noticeable strength that is satisfying yet not overwhelming. It offers enough power to cater to experienced smokers, but the intricate flavors make it approachable for those seeking a cigar with a balance of strength and sophistication. While the peppery spice makes its presence known, the rich, smooth undertones elevate the overall experience, making each draw a refined pleasure.
