Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Edicion De Aniversario "The Man's 80th" Eye of the Bull
Introducing the Don Carlos Eye of the Bull Cigars
The Don Carlos Eye of the Bull Cigars stands as the latest addition to the esteemed Don Carlos Cigars range within the Arturo Fuente Cigars Company's portfolio. Highly anticipated and garnering excellent ratings, this cigar is poised to secure a spot among the top 25 cigars on Cigar Aficionado's list and is a strong contender for the title of Cigar of the Year in 2023. Representing a limited edition collection, these Nicaraguan cigars boast a unique distinction.
The Eye of the Bull features a compact size of 3 1/2 x 55, presenting a variation of the cherished Don Carlos blend. Its construction comprises a Cameroon wrapper delicately enveloping a Dominican binder and filler. The name "Eye of the Bull" is derived from a clever design element—a small piece of tobacco meticulously positioned at the center of the cap, mimicking the eye of a bull.
The conception of this cigar has been a personal endeavour for Ciro A. Cascella, the executive president of Arturo Fuente International, spanning a dedicated span of at least four years. This creation was unveiled at the previous year's PCA Convention & Trade Show, where it garnered attention. At that time, the Eye of the Bull was not available for purchase, and Fuente's intention was to keep media coverage regarding this unique cigar to a minimum.
DON CARLOS
Named in honour of its legendary creator and Fuente family patriarch Don Carlos Fuente, Sr., Arturo Fuente Don Carlos cigars are one of the world's most finest smokes.
To create this masterpiece, Carlos Fuente, Sr. blended together rare, vintage tobaccos that were hand selected and aged as much as 10 years. These cigars are rich and flavourful, with flawless African Cameroon wrappers, making them as appealing to the eye as they are to the palate.
Because of the select tobacco required, these cigars are among the finest cigars rolled at Tabacalera A. Fuente in the Dominican Republic. In every way possible, Carlos Fuente, Jr. strives to attain the ultimate in rich flavour, flawless wrapper colour and superior construction in every cigar that bears his fathers name.
"My dream wasn't to be the biggest, just the best." Carlos Fuente Sr.
