  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Smoking one from Dec. Right now. It is classic Opus X, with tons of spice,light sweetness and strong leather. Super long burn and solid ash with a leather and pepper finish. I wish other Opus were this good. I am going to only get these from now on. I find these to be the best. The thing just keeps getting better and I am down to the last third. I feel like you get a lot of cigar in a small format . The new batch should be out any day now. To sum it up, it is what I like to say what an Opus should be. I can't wait to get some more soon. Thanks for a great smoke Fuente family!!!

Oddly, the xXx is not one of my favorite sizes. For the same amount of tobacco, I'd rather have the PL, or Perf No.4. I feel the XXX lacks the subtlety and complexity that these other sizes have. It has too much raw power, right up front for my taste. Don't get me wrong though, I love Opus, my favorite cigar blend, easily, and I love the xXx, it just isn't the first, or even fifth size I would reach for.

Nice review. These are great with age and the perfect size for an ass kicking morning smoke with some strong coffee.

Thank you for the review Howerver I got to agree with DOC on this one--the power ranger is not my choice when it comes to opus x. I got every size they make in the humi but stay away from the "power rangers". I've let them age for years hoping that time would bring them around to my opus x taste profile but nope that has not happened.

My Humi is equipped to deal with such a problem.

Good luck finding a Pussy Juice. Pretty sure it is one of those CFC event type sticks. Also, I'm not sure if it's what you meant, but the Perfecxion 5 and PL are two different cigars (one being a half corona, the other a... Petite Lancero)
