If your cigar company lasts long enough and is successful enough, it wont just have ONE legendary patriarch, it will accumulate them from generation to generation. For the Fuentes, founder Don Arturo has been joined by Don Carlos, his son. Both of them have left us, but we can treasure a legacy that is among the richest cultivated by any cigar family in the world.

The Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Elie Bleu Lighter combines the legacy of Don Carlos with the craftsmanship of Elie Bleu, one of the foremost high end cigar accessory artisans in the industry. What was once a master woodworking studio in France has grown to become a synonymous with cigar luxury. Starting with humidors, the company has slowly show time and time again that they cant be put in a simple box they can do it all.

This is a sleek jet flame lighter with a slim profile. A port on the bottom enables refilling, while a cover on the top keeps key components protected. On the sides, gorgeous art with the Don Carlos logo and the signature of the man himself grace the outer layer.

The Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Elie Bleu Lighter actually pays homage to a cigar blend, not just the person. Don Carloss namesake blend, like so many things he touched, turned to solid gold. It won Cigar Aficionados Cigar of the Year in 2017, in an unforgettable Eye of the Shark vitola that was impossible to put down. Somehow the magicians at Fuente can routinely put Cameroon tobacco to such fantastic use that it powers special blends right to the top of the reviewers charts.

And so we light up with this fine lighter from Elie Bleu toasting the man, the myth, and the legend, Don Carlos Fuente. May he rest in peace.

Gracias, seor.
