Interesting...I heard completely different. The Naked Kings, as I was told, were not at all similar to the King line. But, that same guy also told me the Rare Pinks weren't coming out till next year. He said they were the non-Opus holiday LE for this year.

Here is where I read the above info. Is it the truth? I don't know for sure. But I read it on the internet so it must be true.

Had another chat with my B&M. Correction, according to his Fuente Rep, they are a completely different blend than the King-T. Not much is being put out there. He thinks each store that got these only received 30 cigars. No word yet on the Pinks.
