Hmmmmm. Pre-Embargo Fuente Fuente Opus X?

Just watched the Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.  There's a scene where Henry Cavill's character avails himself of some fine spirits and cigars.

Didn't expect to see Opus X in this WWII period piece.  The prop masters got this one wrong I'd say.😁

In this closeup you can see the box has several sized vitolas of unbanded cigars too.

Well you see, these were strictly diplomatic Cigars given to officials as State gifts. It wasn’t until the mid-90s that they were commercially launched. (Sound familiar? 🙄)

It is all about marketing. They are trying to make the Opus like Cohiba. I believe they can’t because Castro used to talk about Cohibas and he used to smoke it. I believe it was his favorite. He gave it to other popular people like Saddam and then he used to smoke it everyday. I can’t tell whether it was for the taste because I have not smoked smoked many Cohibas because I got into cigar collecting in 2020. Also, the prices...well, I just couldn’t buy Cohiba with these prices. I believe there are so many better Cuban cigars than Opus for me.
