      Thank you for your view and comment. It was truly a remarkable experience to see the Fuente Factory and to have Carlito tell us the storied legacy of his family and what will undeniably continue for many generations to come. Happy Holidays!

    Excellent tour. Very impressed with the Arturo Fuente factory. Modern and up to date. I've been a casual cigar smoker for some time now, but it's starting to become an obsession with me. I want to collect all of the Arturo Fuente cigar boxes and someday buy the holy grail of cigars, the Opus X line, If I can find it at a reasonable price that doesn't try to gouge me.

      I stayed away from Fuente cigars for a long time because I thought they were overhyped. I was wrong. I love the flavor profile, consistency, and the family story. Best of luck collecting their portfolio of cigars. There’s an amazing story behind every cigar they make. Thanks for watching!

      I wouldn’t be surprised if they rotate them to other departments to avoid burn out doing the same processes day in, day out, but I totally understand what you mean about the repetitive sounds.

      @CigarUnboxing  4 місяці тому

      The factory is only open to tours during the ProCigar Festival every year. Google ProCigar and you should be able to find information about the 2025 festival. Best of luck my friend.

    Were you allowed to buy cigars at the end?

    • @CigarUnboxing
      @CigarUnboxing  4 місяці тому +1

      Unfortunately, no. The area where the factory is located is in free trade zone meaning all products must be exported. However if you are able to tour the Hemingway House and Chateau de la Fuente, they do have a gift shop with a limited selection. The best place to buy Fuente is at their lounge in Santo Domingo. Check my videos as I toured both. Best of luck and thank you for watching.

    • @CigarUnboxing
      @CigarUnboxing  8 місяців тому +1

      Wow - what a gift to your husband. The factory is closed to the general public. The only way to get in for a tour is during the ProCigar festival which is every year in February. Best of luck!

  • @charlzinho_911
    @charlzinho_911 7 місяців тому

    Hmmm… I feel like the PERFECT cigar, the undisputed and unrivalled father of all cigars would be Cuban tobacco grown in Cuban conditions and in Cuban soil, with Cuban blends, made with the Cuban passion for cigars, with the quality control, care and attention to detail and perfection of the Dominicans and the New World. Idk, I just feel there is something about Cuban tobacco and a fine cigar like a Partagas Serie D no. 4 or a Montecristo Edmundo, and the Cohiba’s made with the medio tiempo like the Behike line, no other cigar on the planet compares to it. Sure, a box of 25 Cubans usually do contain 2 or 3 poorly constructed pieces and that’s a real annoyance but the tobacco itself? Nothing compares. That’s just my opinion and I’m sure people will disagree with that, and that’s perfectly okay.
