Just one question. What RH were they kept at and smoked at? If the answer is 70% it was too wet. This is the reason it wouldn't toast for you and most likely a little harsh. Try keeping and smoking between 60 - 65% rh for Opus.

Don't give up on opus. I had a fresh power ranger that was awesome this year as well as a 07 robusto that was superb. I've had one a few years back that was plugged but I've never had a loose draw.

I'm pretty sure that Andy keeps his smokes at 65% with beads. It wasn't harsh, really, just a blast of pepper at the beginning.
