Details:
The Arturo Fuente Añejo Reserva Shark 77 is wrapped in rich maduro leaves aged in cognac barrels. While the Añejo line features several different sizes and shapes, the No. 77 Shark is the most famous. AF states The Shark is the first torpedo shaped cigar ever rolled that progresses from a round parejo shape to a square press.
For fun: a Snippet of an article taken from Half Wheel which was taken from the defunct Vitolas.net:
The Añejo Shark was actually made and named because of Marvin Shanken (Cigar Aficionado owner) and Carlito’s brother in-law, Wayne Suarez. Carlito named it the “SS Shark” because they both loved this vitola and blend; one “S” stood for Shanken and the other “S” stood for Suarez.
The “No.77” designation comes not from the ring gauge of this cigar, as it does for the other cigars in the Añejo line, but rather from a more amusing reason altogether. Carlito took his kids to Sea World in Orlando, FL, and there noticed that some of the sharks in the tank had two pectoral fins, which looked sort of like two 7’s.
