FFOX Opus X Story - Forbidden X - 4 Cigars Yellow

Product details

The FFOX Opus X Story Forbidden X Yellow is one of the most complete collector's experiences Arturo Fuente releases each year — four rare vintage Fuente Fuente Forbidden X cigars presented in a yellow Prometheus travel humidor alongside the exclusive publication "20 Years of Fuente Fuente OpusX," a personal interview with Carlito Fuente and a detailed pictorial history of the last two decades of the Opus X legacy. Released twice a year in limited quantities — just 700 sets per colorway — it's the kind of package that disappears quickly and resurfaces in collections for years afterward.

Every Forbidden X inside is a full Dominican puro built from the rarest tier of tobacco Chateau de la Fuente produces. The vintage aged Dominican Shade Grown wrapper is drawn from the Fuente family's private tobacco inventory — very old stock that Carlito barrel-ages in a restricted area of the factory before it's ever rolled. The result is a cigar that performs at a different level than standard production: the aging softens and deepens the character of the leaf in a way that no amount of blending alone can replicate. The four vitolas — one Robusto, one Double Robusto, and two Toros — give you the full range of how the Forbidden X blend performs across formats.

Medium in strength and unbelievably smooth, the flavor profile runs through caramel and spice up front, oak and cedar building through the middle, and a clean leather finish that lingers with a natural sweetness only estate-grown Dominican tobacco delivers. The book alone is worth keeping. The cigars are worth savoring slowly.
