Simply put, when you’re shopping Arturo Fuente cigar samplers, you’re getting the best of the best. This isn’t just hype. Objectively, Arturo Fuente is one of the world’s most awarded cigar brands, with multiple Cigar Aficionado Cigar of the Year wins.
Arturo Fuente's cigar blends have become legendary. Cigar fans who keep up with the industry are no doubt familiar with at least two of them. The first is the Don Carlos Eye of the Shark cigar, which inspired a 97-point rating thanks to its rich complexity. The other is the OpusX line, which has been a cult hit for decades, and which has spawned so many special editions and sublines that it is truly impossible to keep them all straight without writing a Ph.D. thesis.
The smokes you’ll find in our Arturo Fuente cigar samplers are world-class premium stogies, and pretty much all of them have one thing in common: Dominican tobacco. The Fuente family has been growing tobacco and crafting exquisite cigars in the Dominican Republic since the 1980s, but the family history in the industry goes back much farther than that. Before that, the Fuentes operated in Nicaragua, and before that in Tampa, where they used imported Cuban tobacco.
Arturo Fuente cigar samplers are the result of a multi-generational legacy that even dates back before Don Arturo himself. Now, Carlos Fuente, Jr. leads the company and preserves the longstanding traditions that have brought Casa Fuente success and earned the family near-universal respect.
There is a fair amount of variety to be found in a cigar sampler from Arturo Fuente. You can enjoy exotic Cameroon leaf in some of the famous Hemingway blends, rosado tobacco in the Rosado Sungrown Magnum R, and exquisitely aged leaf throughout the brand’s lines. That said, there is a signature flavor of Arturo Fuente cigars: it’s that rich and complex leathery core that only Dominican tobacco can offer at such high quality. And the Fuentes carefully cultivate it one season after the other in the green valleys of Bonao.
The Fuentes are masters of their art, no doubt, and we expect that they will continue to be one of the industry’s luminaries for many years to come. Browse our Arturo Fuente cigar samplers and you’ll get the very best that the brand has to offer.
