The Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Edición de Aniversario "The Man's 80th" Personal Reserve is a distinguished cigar crafted to honour the 80th birthday of the legendary Don Carlos Fuente Sr. Measuring 5¼ inches with a 50 ring gauge, this Robusto showcases the Fuente family's dedication to excellence.
This limited-edition cigar was initially released in 2015 to commemorate Don Carlos Sr.'s 80th birthday and has since become a highly sought-after collector's item. Each box of 20 cigars is presented in a high-gloss black finish and includes a pair of white gloves bearing the "The Man's 80th" insignia, adding a touch of elegance to this commemorative release.
Hand-rolled at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia. in the Dominican Republic, this cigar features a meticulously aged African Cameroon wrapper enveloping a blend of vintage Dominican binder and filler tobaccos. The result is a medium to full-bodied smoke with a complex flavour profile, offering notes of sweet natural tobacco, citrus, cream, and a touch of black pepper. The construction is impeccable, ensuring an even burn and a satisfying draw throughout the smoking experience.
Arturo Fuente Cigars – A Century of Excellence
Few names in the world of cigars command the same reverence as Arturo Fuente. Established in 1912 in West Tampa, Florida, the brand has grown from modest beginnings into a global symbol of heritage, consistency, and excellence. After enduring early setbacks, including fire and displacement, the Fuente family rebuilt their legacy with unrelenting dedication, eventually relocating to the Dominican Republic, where their most iconic cigars are now made.
At the heart of every Arturo Fuente cigar is an uncompromising devotion to quality—only the finest tobaccos are selected, aged, and rolled by master craftsmen. From the celebrated Opus X to the distinguished Don Carlos, Hemingway, and Gran Reserva lines, the portfolio spans the full spectrum of flavour and strength, catering to every level of cigar enthusiast.
As Carlos Fuente Sr. famously stated, “We don’t hurry things; we just do things the way they’re supposed to be done.” That same ethos continues to guide every cigar bearing the Arturo Fuente name.
