In 2004, Andy Garcia began filming The Lost City (www.theLostCitytheMovie.com), and wanted to shoot one of the most memorable scenes of his movie at Chateau de la Fuente in July. Unfortunately, there were no tobacco plants growning at Chateau de la Fuente at the time; tobacco plants are usually harvested in March.
In order to help Andy Garcia, Carlito Fuente planted tobacco at Chateau de la Fuente during summer so Andy could film The Lost City.
After the movie was shot at Chateau de la Fuente, the tobacco plants were harvested and aged. Carlito Fuente has created very special cigars from these 5-year old tobaccos: Fuente Fuente OpusX The Lost City. All cigars made with the tobaccos planted for The Lost City come with the black bands.
In addition, Carlito Fuente is releasing two rare, aged FFOX cigars in a tribute to Andy Garcia and The Lost City: Fuente Fuente OpusX Lancero and Love Affair which come with red bands.
