During the production of Andy Garcia's 2005 film, The Lost City, about life in Havana before and around the time of the Revolution, there came a request to the Fuentes to allow the shooting of scenes to be set in a tobacco field on their vast farm, Chateau de la Fuente, home of the world famous Opus X wrapper leaf... Problem was, at the time shooting was to occur, the crop would have already been harvested, and there would be no plants to shoot among, thus destroying the beautiful mise-en-sc

    Too many reasonably priced delicious stogies to go chasing one like this IMHO.

    Great review! Does anyone else's mouth water when looking at the smoothness of the wrapper in the second picture?

    That is a great looking cigar.. The problem is, When a cigar looks that good I can't light it....

    Nice write up! I really like these cigars. I picked up three boxes a while back 1 robusto, 2 dlb robustos. I really like them. Pricey for sure but I got some good prices on them. I actually like them more than the regular opus. I think they have more flavor. However it all depends on the mood.
