Arturo Fuente FFOX Perfecxion 888

The Opus X Perfecxion 888 is a prime example of the legendary expertise of the Fuente family. Each cigar is hand-rolled in the Dominican Republic, with an exquisite Colorado Maduro wrapper made from tobaccos grown on the mineral-rich soils of the Chateau de la Fuente estate. As part of the Opus X line - the first Dominican puro and often referred to as the "king of cigars" - it combines refined craftsmanship with a prestige provenance. The flawless construction results in an even draw and a clean, rich smoke - a must-have for every discerning connoisseur.

Sensual aromas & multi-layered flavour

Connoisseurs can expect a complex interplay of flavours: floral notes combine with sweet vanilla and a hint of cinnamon, while subtle wood and spice nuances caress the senses. The Perfecxion 888 impresses with its fine creaminess with a slightly peppery kick and hints of milk chocolate, malt and lemon zest. Despite the full-bodied flavours, the smoke profile remains elegant and accessible - from medium-full to full, but always harmonious and rich without dominating.

Lasting enjoyment around the clock

With a length of 17.5 cm (6 7/8″) and a ring gauge of 44, the Perfecxion 888 offers a pleasantly long, intense smoking experience - perfect for moments of relaxation, conversations or festive occasions. Connoisseurs appreciate this vitola as an elegant Lonsdale variant with a long-lasting smoking time. After just a few puffs, a soft burn unfolds, which is evident until the last third and continues the characteristics of the Opus X series with dignity. For beginners and collectors alike, it offers an accessible gateway into the world of premium cigars, which gains additional depth with time in the humidor.
