Description
The Fuente Fuente OpusX Oro Oscuro Double Robusto is a 5 3/4 x 52 Dominican puro from Arturo Fuente, which files the Oro Oscuro blend under its OpusX family; Cigar Coop’s July 20, 2023 trade-show report likewise calls the line OpusX Oro Oscuro. Fuente’s Oro Oscuro page lists it among eight vitolas built on a longer-fermented, extra-aged wrapper over Dominican binder and filler.
What It Tastes Like
Fuente’s own text describes the smoke only in broad strokes, citing strength, balance and a dark-toned finish, and no outlet we checked has reviewed this exact vitola. The closest outside guide is Cigar Coop’s April 17, 2017 review of the 5 1/4 x 50 Rosado Oscuro Oro Robusto, an earlier OpusX under Dominican Rosado Oscuro leaf: cocoa, earth and mineral early, a passing burnt-cherry accent, then more white pepper late. halfwheel’s PerfecXion No. 4 review from that release adds sweet wood and warm nuts.
Who It’s For
- OpusX regulars curious how extra wrapper aging changes a familiar format.
- Smokers who like a 52 ring on a cigar just under six inches long.
- All-Dominican devotees drawn to a puro from a single origin.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Same 5 3/4 x 52 frame as the standard OpusX Double Robusto, isolating the wrapper difference
- All-Dominican tobacco, per Fuente
- Tobacco that Fuente’s page links to the soils of Chateau de la Fuente
Cons
- No independent review or score for this size turned up
- Cigar Coop judged the 2015 Rosado Oscuro Oro Robusto medium to medium-full
- Fuente’s page does not name the wrapper variety
About the Oro Oscuro Line
halfwheel’s write-up of the 2015 Rosado Oscuro Oro, marked by a gold foot ribbon, lists five sizes without a Double Robusto; Fuente’s current chart has eight, this one included, and no source dates its arrival.

What size is it?
Fuente’s Oro Oscuro chart gives 5 3/4 inches (146 mm) by a 52 ring gauge, matching our listing.
What sets the Oro Oscuro wrapper apart?
Fuente says the wrapper leaf is fermented and aged for longer than usual, and ties that step to a fuller, darker finish. Binder and filler are Dominican as well.
