Another great limited edition smoke from Arturo Fuente… the Opus X Destino al Siglo

In the world of premium cigars the Opus X is pretty high up there (click here to see my previous Opus X post). Anyone that’s paid the price to buy one of these high end smokes was probably very satisfied. The newest special release cigar was the Destino al Siglo 2012… it was made in honor of the 100th anniverary of the Arturo Fuente Cigar Company. I was grateful that my father was generous enough to share one of the 4 cigars that come in this limited edition package.opus x siglo

The cigars that are included are as follows: 1 Fuente Fuente OpusX, BBMF – 2 Fuente Furente OpusX, Tauros the Bull – 1 Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario, Double Robusto. We both smoked the “Tauros the bull”. As soon as I lit the cigar I could sense the very familiar taste of previous Opus X cigars I’ve smoked. There are always some spice and signs of strength in the Opus X blends, but they are also very well balanced. The best part is the easy draw that comes from being so well made. opus x

This smoke burned extremely well. It was super slow with a solid ash all the way down to the nub. I am a fan of the Opus X, even despite the usually high price tag. This limited edition smoke was definitely worth the price and would be a great gift for any true cigar aficionado.

 In conclusion…JK highly recommends  If your are willing to pay the price you will always get a great strong smoke with an Opus X. (Most of the normal versions start at around $15..and up,up,up). This special edition set retails around $165.

    I couldn’t agree with you more. Opus is one of my favorite smokes that harmonize flavor and spice. Fuente Fuente with two fingers of Glenlivet is icing on the cake.

    Exactly! Tough to beat an Opus. Can thank you for putting the first one in my hand many years ago!
