Prometheus has announced that it has begun shipping the Fuente Fuente OpusX Heaven and Earth Rare Black Double Corona.

It’s the second size for the Rare Black line, joining the original 6 7/8 x 44 size, which the company is referring to as the Rare Black Torpedo. The new vitola was announced as part of the 2020 release but didn’t begin shipping until now. It has an MSRP of $65 per cigar and it is sold in boxes of 10 which the company refers to as travel humidors.

The blend of the Rare Black has not been disclosed.

Rare Black is part of the Fuente Aged Selection, a partnership between Arturo Fuente and Prometheus. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of Fuente Aged Selection products is donated to the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation, which supports a school, medical clinic, and other programs in the Dominican Republic.
