Fuent Fuente Opus X

First advice is usually to to age for a year before smoking but thats for flavour/taste not because of tar build up. What humidity is your humidor?

Hi Sligub, appreciate your help, thank you. My humidor is at a solid 69% RH with a temperature of 16-18 degrees Celsius. The RH is 'controlled' by using the 69% Boveda Packs.

Groundhog - These were bought from Cgars Ltd in a rather beautiful Fuente Fuente Opus X 1992 Ch?teau de la reserva tin. Bought 2 months ago for my 30th with an idea to have the other two for special occasions....

Thanks all,

Are they from a reliable source?

Oh no. I've got some of these on the way as potential candidates for occasion cigars...
Can't put them down for a year...

Good Evening Gents & Ladies

So, for my big 3-0 Birthday, I had a little special cigar lined up, well a tin of 3, and they were not little at all. I have to ask as my initial thoughts are these beautiful cigars must be fresh off the boat as the only organoleptics I could pick up from this cigar were mainly earth and where I had cut the cigar as I always do with an Xi3 cutter, just before the shoulders. The cap of the cigar was covered in black which I assume to be tar by about halfway through meaning I had to put this cigar down. This is the first time I have had this so either I have been very lucky thus far or something is not right?!

All opinions and advice is most welcome.

Thank you,



** I also do not want to smoke another to be certain if it is just a matter of them being kept in a humidor for 'x' amount of time as this would be 2 wasted?**
