    Last night, an Opus X of the Fuente Fuente size that had so many damn burn problems that it was not worth the trouble. Odd enough because it has been at a steady 68% for a month. I smoked an inch and a half, and put it out. It's a crying shame for how much I payed for it. $18 in washington state. Tasted pretty good after the flame got out of the jet charring.

    Default La Gloria Cubana Serie R Limitada 2004

    What a great smoke . Started off spicy , then mellowed out for a long enjoyable smoke . Nice even burn , beautiful construction and pleasantly strong aroma .

    I've not had an Opus that wasn't great after a year in the humi... Now the ones I get from the cigar store and smoke within a month or two of purchase - a different story alltogether... It's been hit or miss...

    To be on the safe side (and I know it's absolute torture), I usually squirrel those babies away for at least a year before I smoke 'em...

    Had one of the new bolivars - to me it tasted just like a Cuba Aliados Cazador maduro. Same construction also.


    Hope the rest of you have better luck with them.

    is there any specific reason that Opus Xs behave this way? I know they are great leaf, but why all of the problems "out of the box"?

    They're also VERY oily, which can lead to some burn problems....

    I'm in your boat, TSC... I've been sick all week...

    Night before I had one of those Honduran sun grown churchills from MD Cigars, cheap and cheerful, can't complain for the money

    Once it was lit completely, very nice cigar. Lots of smoke.
