Fuente will be my number one cigar company forever. My uncle always smokes fuentes had me cutting his cigars since a kid. And now im cutting them and lighting them to enjoy for myself. No other company can come close to fuente. Mad respect for the generations of this family. If it wasn’t for fuente I probably wouldn’t be enjoying cigars.❤
The chateau Fuente was the first box of cigars I ever purchased. The Hemingway is now my favorite cigar I’ve ever smoked. Such a cool sorry and heritage. I’m happy to support this brand and family.
There were two things taught to his kids when they arrived from school, the family trade and learning the responsibilities of the work for some day they will take over the family job.
Im sitting in my garage watching this at 3 AM smoking my very first Don Carlos.... What an epic journey. Just might have found my new favorite cigar. The complexity and smoothness of this cigar is unreal. Thank you Fuente family for making such an incredible product.
I’m legitimately proud of the fact their cigars are my favorite. Such a great story, smoking their sticks makes me feel in a small way like I’m part of their journey.
Incredible story of persistence and dedication. My desert island cigar is the Don Carlos double robusto. I could smoke these above all other cigars from any country for the rest of my life.
My absolute favorite cigar maker. Smoking a Curly Head right now, which...thank you A.Fuente for giving us such a excellent and extremely affordable cigar.
Beautiful testimony that no matter what against all odds, hard work and perseverance anyone can achieve their dream in America! Love the Arturo Feuente Cigars!
Great story. It’s all makes sense now. I had a Chateau cigar for the first time and it’s definitely the best cigar I’ve had hands down. Didn’t want to put it down. Smoked it down to the end. Thank y’all for your hard work.
There are a lot of amazing good premium cigars out there on the market Davidoff, Oliva, Partagas, Bolivar, Cohiba, Padron, Monte Cristo... etc etc but when it comes to history of the tobacco industry and marketing and sales also the construction and performance of cigars I only have 2 in my top list Arturo Fuente and Perdomo cigars and even tho this video only tells the story of the Fuente Family the Perdomo went through something simular but at the end of the day if I have to pick in a walk-in Humidor I will always pick the Opus X over any other cigar aaaaaand if the cigar store doesn't have it well my 2nd choice will be the Arturo Fuente Añejo
Great documentary! I have a question! So in 1988 ( 15:20 ), prior to Carlito meeting the French man who told him he was never going to be great because he's not creating cigars but merely assembling them, what were Arturo Fuentes cigars made with since they'd arrive in the DR? Were they growing Dominican tobacco at that time and using it for filler/binder? Or were they simply manufacturing cigars using tobacco bought from local farmers? Or perhaps tobacco from other countries? And what about wrappers? As I understand it, nowadays AF cigars, other than the OpusX lines, uses a variety of wrappers for the regular production cigars. Was it the same prior to the French man saying the "you'll never be great" quote? Basically, did Carlos and Carlito begin growing tobacco in the DR prior to 1988 (for filler and binder) or were they simply manufacturing cigars?
The way understand it from other research, they weren’t producing their own wrapper. The French tobacconist, told him he needed to produce a wrapper. Something that had been tried and had failed in that Country.
And in all those countries in south and middle america who was controlling the telecom? And the one who controls telecom controls the intelligence agency operating there on the behalf of the ones who makes the so called money. Connect the dots please.
Incredible story of a family that refused to give up.

A true family that sticks together❤ God Bless the Fuente family and many more to come of them.
Carlos fuente passed away in 2016. RIP ty fuente family for sharing your journey and amazing cigars with us.
The world’s GREATEST cigars. One day I’ll smoke an Opus X. God bless the Fuente family. Such an amazing story.
They are top of the line and can actually bang with the top Cubans
I hope you have had a chance to smoke that Opus
may god give you 1000 of them
My wife bought me an Opus X Gift set with Humidor for Fathers Day last year!! Did not disappoint!!
The Opus X was fire 🔥
There were two things taught to his kids when they arrived from school, the family trade and learning the responsibilities of the work for some day they will take over the family job.
What a family... what a great cigar. God bless the Fuente family
Hemingway Signature.
It's a smoke one can always count on for a quality every time.
I just had one for the first time this weekend. New to premium cigars. FANTASTIC!
There the GOAT of the cigar world in my opinion ! Long live Arturo Fuente his family and cigars !
You mean They're not there

The photo of the Fuente couple between 13:40--13:46 is priceless. Their expressions tell the whole story.
💯💯✊🏽✊🏽💯💯Awesome story! Just listening to the passion. Can't wait to try one. Been searching for a while. Not many places carry the Opus X
Talk about getting kicked in the nuts numerous times and getting up and coming back harder...salute 🙏 pride in your product goes along way!
Thank you to an amazing family. Truly an inspiration! You were my very first cigar. You are responsible for my love of cigars. Thank you.
Incredible story of persistence and dedication. My desert island cigar is the Don Carlos double robusto. I could smoke these above all other cigars from any country for the rest of my life.
Honestly some of my favorite cigars. The Hemmingway is so smooth and tasty.
My absolute favorite cigar maker. Smoking a Curly Head right now, which...thank you A.Fuente for giving us such a excellent and extremely affordable cigar.
Just enjoyed my first Hemingway,whist watching..
Nice one!!
Wow what a story of triumph,passion,and determination ❤❤❤
Joe M. on narration and very classy documentary. Awesome.
Hard work and passion pays off...something we all need to realize
Beautiful testimony that no matter what against all odds, hard work and perseverance anyone can achieve their dream in America! Love the Arturo Feuente Cigars!
Even their “cheap” cigar, the 5-8-5, is a great smoke. Inspiring story
858
They also have "Curly Heads" which are Cuban sandwiches and even cheaper. The 8-5-8 is cheap but not the cheapest Fuente.
@@Lycosa
Smoking a Curly Head right now. It's my "go to" smoke. Affordable and quality.
I’m going to try my 1st AF cigar today, short story it is.
The story of this family is truly inspiring!!!
This is what i want to be ! Fuente, what a spirit, what a inspiration ♥️
This is awesome 🇨🇺

Siempre he fumado este cigarro,el mejor del mundo, éxito a la familia Fuente,dios los bendiga.
Smoking a Rosado Gran Reserva hoping I can get my hands on an Opus X or am Anejo soon. New to the cigar world and I LOVE Fuente cigars
RIP Mr. Fuente
Narrator is Joe Mantegna I believe. Best known as Fat Tony from The Simpsons!!
It is, I can hear it.
Sold them out of the house for cash only. That's a boss right there
I've always wanted to try a opus x! I wish I could find them I love all of his cigars that I've tired! Best cigars you can get your hands on!
Never had a bad AF cigar. They are affordable and everywhere with a lot of choices. No wonder they are a big cigar giant.
Love your cigars
Great story. It’s all makes sense now. I had a Chateau cigar for the first time and it’s definitely the best cigar I’ve had hands down. Didn’t want to put it down. Smoked it down to the end. Thank y’all for your hard work.
I will only buy Arturo Fuente
Its so beautiful 😍
I love the opus line. I wonder why there so many retailers and distributors that dislike Carlito?
Narrated by fat tony. Awesome
Pat sheeba it wasn’t fat tony his name is joe and he is on a cop show everyone watches
Smokey729 fat Tony is the name of the character Joe Montenga voices on The Simpson’s
Best cigars in the business
Beautiful story
Amazing
Thanks for the beautiful video.
Its not about getting knocked down, its about getting back up again.
makes me want to light up a cigar
Carlos was more american than cuban. Arturo Fuente is a cuban american brand
I always have a box of Hemingways and Don Carlos #3 in my humidors at all times.
Amazing truly amazing
I love the curly heads.
Darn Fine Cigars.

After watching this im not sure im worthy of smoking a Fuente

Opus x 😂 leave those poor opuh's alone!!
that's Joe Montegna narrating....
👍👍
Is the narrator a voice for one of the mob guys in Simpsons?
Why do I know that voice who is the narrator
Is that Fat Tony from the simpsons doing the voice over?
Song name at 14:00
Is this voiced by Fat Tony from the Simpsons???
And in all those countries in south and middle america who was controlling the telecom? And the one who controls telecom controls the intelligence agency operating there on the behalf of the ones who makes the so called money. Connect the dots please.
They chose an italian american to do the voice over in Joe Mantegna? Why not a spaniard?
Did Fat Tony from the Simpsons do the commentary? Lmao
This is an example of what communism can do to peoples, I am Cuban and this put a not in my throat.
hmmmmm
23:4
