Double Robusto

Don Carlos Anniversary Edition · 5.75 × 52 Double Robusto Boxed Collection

A 30th-anniversary tribute to the family patriarch:The Don Carlos series was born in 1976 and personally established by the second-generation master Carlos Fuente Sr. With its mellow, balanced, aged character, it has become the enduring backbone of the brand. In 2006, to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the series and pay tribute to his father's lifelong dedication to tobacco, heir Carlito Fuente devoted himself to creating this anniversary masterpiece, the "Edición de Aniversario," and included it in the brand's most prestigious "Fuente Aged Selection" collection.

A groundbreaking fusion of two legendary recipes:Unlike the standard Don Carlos, which uses Cameroon-grown African wrapper, the Anniversary Edition features a landmark cross-over: Carlito first utilized the premium Dominican sun-grown Rosado wrapper exclusively reserved for the OpusX series, sourced from the renowned Château de la Fuente, to encase the Don Carlos family's long-aged Dominican wrapper and filler leaves. This innovation combines the deep sweetness of the OpusX wrapper with the silky smoothness of Don Carlos's long-cut leaves, creating an authentic 100% Dominican Puro.

Top 5 honors and two years of slow aging after rolling:The Double Robusto format of this recipe once received a high score of 94 in Cigar Aficionado for its exceptionally delicate and balanced performance, and was ranked No. 5 in the 2008 Top 5 Best Cigars in the World. After being rolled, each cigar is aged for an additional two years or more in the workshop's independent aging room, allowing the sun-grown wrapper and filler leaves to fully mature together. Presented in an elegant, high-gloss 10-stick wooden box, it is a rare allocation that offers both depth of flavor and aging potential.

Product Highlights

  • Cigar Aficionado Top 5 of the Year (94 points):Highly praised by the internationally authoritative publication, representing the pinnacle of Dominican single-estate Puro tobacco in terms of smoothness and complexity.
  • OpusX Estate Wrapper × Don Carlos Private Reserve Long-Cut Leaves:A rare combination of sun-grown wrapper from the Château de la Fuente estate and aged family long-cut leaves, offering both rich oily aromas and a mature, rounded flavor.
  • Over Two Years of Slow Aging After Rolling:In addition to the years of aging of the raw leaves, the finished cigars are aged for over 24 months in the Fuente aging room, allowing the flavors to fully meld and the palate to become smooth, sweet, and pure.
  • Fuente Aged Selection 10-Stick Wooden Box:Unlike the portable aluminum tube version, this edition comes in an elegant high-gloss wooden box, with 10 cigars neatly arranged in each box, making it highly valuable for personal collections and gifting.

Flavor in Three Acts

Act I · Silky Sweetness and Cedar Opening

The unlit cigar gives off mellow cedar, slightly sweet caramel, and delicate dried fruit aromas. Once lit, the smoke gently envelops the palate like silk, revealing the distinctive creamy texture and roasted almond aroma of Don Carlos's aged long-cut leaves. As the warmth of the sun-grown Rosado wrapper awakens, caramel sweetness and a gentle hint of cinnamon gradually unfold on the exhale, creating an elegant and approachable opening.

Act II · Caramel, Vanilla, and Cocoa Fusion

As the cigar reaches its midpoint, the rich character of the Château de la Fuente sun-grown wrapper fully emerges. The sweetness of natural cocoa, toffee, and ripe dried figs gradually deepens, supported by a solid foundation of dry cedar and delicate aged leather. The 52 ring gauge delivers a generous, smooth smoke, perfectly balancing the sweetness with mild Dominican spices and creating rich, nuanced layers.

Act III · Rich Nuts and Mellow Finish

As the cigar nears its end, the flavors steadily intensify into a full-bodied range while retaining the rounded smoothness brought by two years of aging after rolling. Dark-roasted coffee, natural cocoa, and earthy aromas complement one another, while the cedar and roasted nut finish lingers on the palate. The final draw is sweet, smooth, and pure, showcasing the noble character of master-blended Puro tobacco over nearly 90 minutes of smoking.
