Default Re: Opus X?

excellent job on the vsg meme



some of the opus are worth it to me, but not to others

like you will hear lots of times like what you smoke, smoke what you like.


it is worth tracking one down to try, but I wouldnt pay what some of these online places charge for them

Default Re: Opus X?

They're pretty good but for the price......eh. Let me put it this way

Opus x vs Padron 1964 anny? Padron

Opus X vs Ashton VSG? VSG

Opus X vs Bolivar PC? Bolivar

You can see where I'm going with this. If I'm at my B&M and they're in AND at retail value then I may pick up a few but it's rare. I'd rather invest my money on international investments.


These are jut opinions and all taste is subjective so the fun of cigars is the discovery of smokes you like, love, or hate. The best advice I can give is buy some and find out if you like them. Either way it's always fun.

I like them and I think they are worth the coin, I also like VSG and ESG. Wait till your B&M has them back in stock probably will be sometime around christmas, by then they will probably have anejos as well. But that is just one mans opinion. Are they superior to Padron Anniverio? No, just very different.

An Opus with 3-5 years on it is one of the best cigars you can smoke IMO
Padrons are also very good if you want to smoke fresh
VSG? Good but not in the same class IMO, good cigar for the money though
