Description
The Arturo Fuente Rare Pink Signature is a 6 x 46 perfecto with an Ecuadorian wrapper over a filler of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobacco, rolled in the Dominican Republic. Cigar Coop notes it is the slimmest size in Fuente’s Rare Pink Vintage 1960’s line.
What It Tastes Like
Cigar Insider, Cigar Aficionado’s sister newsletter, gave the Rare Pink Signature 92 points in April 2021 and judged it medium-full. Its tasting found a bold, toasty smoke of pepper and graham cracker, with orange zest, leather and a gingery sweet finish. Cigar Coop scored it 90 in May 2023, with coffee and cedar in front and black pepper building toward the end.
Who It’s For
- Hemingway Signature smokers who want the same 6-inch shape with a different blend.
- Fans of peppery, toasty cigars with some sweetness on the finish.
- Anyone shopping with a cause in mind, since halfwheel has reported Fuente donating part of each box sale to breast cancer research.
Pros and Cons

- halfwheel reported (2021, 2022) that $13 per box goes to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation

- Published blend details conflict on the binder (see below)
About the Rare Pink Line
halfwheel reports the Rare Pink Vintage 1960’s series began shipping in December 2020 with four perfectos, the Signature among them. The name nods to the 1960s of Carlito Fuente’s youth. Sources differ on the binder: Cigar Insider, Cigar Coop and halfwheel’s Short Story review list Dominican, while halfwheel’s 2022 shipping report lists Nicaraguan.
Pairing and Storage
With orange and ginger in the Cigar Insider notes, try a barrel-aged Old Fashioned, which our pairing guide suggests for fuller cigars; an orange twist echoes the citrus.
