Wasn't my first Opus but it was my first (core line?) Opus. Like not lost city or idk I'm an Opus Newb. What I meant was, I'd be able to smoke a few in closer proximity to one another and better shape my opinion of them. I have never had an Opus that has burned well for me... Insane right? The profiles are consistent, it's a quality smoke with clean flavors.. I just think they lack complexity or maybe I'm just not paying enough attention. I like them, just not enough to pay what they are asking (regularly) still have a few more to sway my opinion though! Lol.

19 hours of Final Destination-like attempts on my life so I'm taking a long relaxing lunch break. I'm moving to a small tropical island where I don't need cars and space heaters.

I'm enjoying it. I just got them a couple days ago and I think a little more humi time will do them good. I don't have a sophisticated palate but if you like creamy smoke, good earthy tobacco flavors, and light spice on the retro then they might be right up your alley. This is actually my first Alec Bradley cigar. I had a Black Market but I gifted it to one of the Lieutenants.

How much are they going for down south?
The one place I see Opus X here sells them for 56$ a piece...

First a AF Don Carlos #2 that I'd put in my top 10 cigars ever. It was sublime.



Now I'm smoking my first Guerrilla Warfare. A strong little SOB.
