HISTORY
When the company was established in 2012, Arturo Fuente would have never believed that his passion and love for cigars would become a global phenomenon with a massive following for his brands, such as the Opus X line. He started the company with humble beginnings, rolling and blending cigars in the back of his house with his wife and two sons. Four generations later, the company is still family-owned and operated in the Dominican Republic.
From the very beginning, the focus of the company was to make cigars with quality tobacco, craftsmanship, and not rushing the production.
“We don’t hurry things; we just do things the way they are supposed to be done.” - Carlos Fuente Sr.
In 2012, the Fuente companies celebrated their 100th anniversary. Till now, the Fuente family continues to have a burning passion for the culture and tradition of cigars and will continue to make the finest quality cigars for generations to come.
DON CARLOS
Named after Don Carlos Fuente, Sr., the Arturo Fuente Don Carlos cigar is one of the best cigars you can smoke.
To make it, the family used tobaccos that were aged for up to 10 years. These cigars taste rich and are wrapped in a perfect African Cameroon leaf, making them look as great as they taste.
Because they only use the finest tobacco, these are some of the best cigars rolled in the Dominican Republic. Every Don Carlos cigar is built with superior quality and flavour, carrying on the founder's great name.
