For decades, cigar blenders and factories struggled to find Dominican leaf that was suitable for cigar wrappers, but that precedent changed thanks to Arturo Fuente: Founded in 1912, Arturo Fuente eventually developed a means of cultivating Dominican tobacco that fit the exacting requirements demanded of wrapper leaf, and the illustrious Fuente Fuente OpusX series was born — the first ever Dominican puro. Supported by the experience and expertise learned from three generations of dedicated cigar blending and tobacco cultivation, Fuente Fuente OpusX cigars represent Arturo Fuente’s most prestigious offerings, and many avid connoisseurs consider them Holy Grails within the cigar industry. Crafted in limited quantities and comprising only the finest Dominican tobacco available, OpusX cigars are an experience unto themselves.The Añejo Reserva is a slight variation on the OpusX blend, and it’s a special release from Arturo Fuente that typical falls around Father’s Day and Christmas. After the destruction of Hurricane George in the late 1990s, Fuente suffered from a shortage of OpusX wrapper leaf. To accommodate, they covered the same Dominican binder and fillers in five-year-old Connecticut Broadleaf wrappers that had aged in cognac barrels, and the Añejo Reserva line was born. The Añejo Reserva Maduro trades the original wrapper for one of Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro. This particular vitola is a special one: the Shark. The shape is notable for being the first of its kind, starting round near its tapered cap and gradually becoming a box-pressed shape near the foot.
