To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the release of the OpusX, the puro Dominican stick with the Cuban-seed wrapper that put Arturo Fuente back on the map commercially and became a legend in the cigar industry, Arturo Fuente has announced a limited-edition series of commemorative accessories designed by artist Manny Iriarte.
First and foremost, there’s the Fuente Fuente OpusX 25 Elie Bleu Limited Edition 88-Count Humidor, designed to store up to 88 cigars.
Constructed by French case designer Elie Bleu, which has produced other humidors for Arturo Fuente in the past, it utilizes red gum wood that’s dyed a deep, rich green in many places and features the words “Chateau” (for the brand’s famed Chateau de la Fuente tobacco estate) and “Opus 25” written in decorative type across the front and top. There are rose gold accents and unique marquetry that compete with many of the humidors Elie Bleu has produced in the past in quality and beauty; the appearance of these boxes is truly stunning. Best of all, the humidor is supplied with 25 green-banded, special-edition, seven-inch-by-50-ring-gauge Fuente Fuente OpusX 25 smokes that come packaged in a separate box.
Limited to an edition of just 88 pieces, the humidor is just one of several unique accessories that Arturo Fuente has introduced; there are also limited-edition Elie Bleu jet flame lighters, a limited-edition French porcelain OpusX ashtray with rose gold bridges and an elaborate limited-edition pair of Elie Blue-made OpusX anniversary cigar scissors with rose gold handles, surgical-steel blades and a prominent green “X” inlay.
These are all exceptionally rare items that will thrill any fan of Arturo Fuente, especially aficionados of the OpusX series of cigars. Don’t wait to add these special pieces to your collection of smoking accouterments today.
