Honesty is the best way. Each of us has our own palate and sometimes there is just no wow factor we expect. I have not had this cigar but there is no reason to hype a cigar you dislike. Anyone who knows cigars knows to each their own.

Everyone is different and every cigar can't be a homerun!! What I gather is...its not a bad cigar! And with different palates...it may be my Nirvana! As long as it isn't reviewed as goats a$$...its worth a try!

Hey Snipe's generosity is not in question so no worries there. He asked for impressions and almost certainly you will not like every smoke someone sends your way. So no harm no foul! As mentioned above honesty is best and thanks for putting your thoughts out there.

This is a fun thread to read. I agree with you completely about the Zino, I was kinda unimpressed. Havent had a davidoff yet so I might need to try that based on that recommendation.

Hate? I was merely laughing at his humorous description.

A great cigar, A big slab of smoked bovine goodness, and brusslesprouts (my fav veg). Looks like good times to me.

I have had different results with the opus and I think it is all based on current mood. Some have been epic smokes and others have been just OK.

I'm enjoying your reviews, and this is just funny: "I can sometimes pick up a chocolate flavor or maybe coffee, etc., but to detect honeydew blossoms with just a trace of anise, earth, and road-apples is beyond me." LOL!!!!!!!!

Nice reviews brother. Thanks for sharing them with us. Some of my favorite cigars ever getting reviewed here! As for the Opus X... any idea how old it is? They really need a year at least, and honestly, preferably 3 years before they turn into the masterpieces that have earned their earth-shattering reputation.
