I always figured you for a K-pop guy. Glad to see I was right.

Good morning @CBoukal,

To put it simply, Fuente has positioned the Black Pink as a natural extension of the Rare Pink line just taken in a darker, more intense direction. You can think of it as the bolder counterpart, built for a richer and more aggressive flavor experience.

From what I understand, it features a darker Connecticut Habano–style Ecuadorian wrapper, paired with Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers. The profile leans heavily into earthy notes, espresso, and spice, a full-bodied smoke with noticeably deeper complexity.

The presentation pushes a sense of rarity and intrigue, clearly aiming for collector-grade status rather than just another standard release.

Bottom line: they’ve essentially taken the Rare Pink concept and elevated it into a more aggressive, luxury-tier cigar, and for someone who prefers full-bodied cigars, it delivers.

I ain’t falling for that Fuente latest & greatest bs anymore. Love a few of their established premium lines, always will be an Opus hoarder, even when I get a bunch of shit construction ones.

... and named it after a Kpop group.
