Arturo Fuente Añejo Reserva No. 66 Shark

The Arturo Fuente Añejo Reserva No. 66 Shark is among the most coveted and rare cigars released by Arturo Fuente—a luxurious expression born from necessity and elevated through tradition. Crafted in a distinctive 5 5/8″ × 52 shaped Toro, this cigar was born from a shortage of Opus X wrapper leaf, leading Carlos Fuente Jr. to elegantly adapt by using an aged U.S. Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro that's been rested in cognac barrels. Beneath the dark and oily wrapper lies the same Opus X-grade Dominican binder and filler, creating a robust, flavorful, and collectible smoke.

Upon lighting, this full-bodied masterpiece unfolds with rich notes of dark cocoa, cedar, earth, and sweet cream, punctuated throughout by hints of espresso, leather, and a warm spice finish. Its smooth draw and impeccable construction elevate the experience, making every puff an homage to Fuente’s storied craftsmanship.

Produced in very limited quantities—typically released only once or twice a year (around Father’s Day and Christmas)—the Añejo Reserva line has become legendary among aficionados. The Shark vitola, in particular, blends the visual drama of its tapered shape with the depth of a Maduro puro, often referred to by enthusiasts as the “Maduro Opus X.”

At The Tobacconist of Greenwich, we present this exclusive release alongside other rare Fuente offerings—such as Opus X, Don Carlos, and Rare Pink—allowing collectors and connoisseurs alike to explore the full range of Fuente’s finest.
