In the last few years, Fuente has been churning out the HTFs like mad. 858 SG rosado, 858SG, Hemi SG, Hemi SG rosado, Untold story maduros (when was the last time they made those monsters?). They even did Opus Sharks outside of the Opus-22 set last year...
Based on the larger quantity available, plus the other cigars, it sure seems like they upped production.

It sure is a diversion from their "protect the mystique" philosophy. It hasn't been long since I'd grab every Opus I could find for the guys here. (I no like.) Now they're everywhere, even online. I never saw one of those 3 cigar tins till this year, I bought up a whole rack, then played hell getting rid of them. I'm still stuck with 3 tins. They'll make nice gifts, I suppose.
There must be a new captain at the helm with some different ideas?
