they finally figured out that they've tasted like shit for the past several years and will never be able to reproduce the opus of the late 90's so they gave up on the line...

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 the next few weekends 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.

I for one agree with Sam, I personally feel the Opus X hasn't been to my liking since 1996!they finally figured out that they've tasted like shit for the past several years and will never be able to reproduce the opus of the late 90's so they gave up on the line...
I agree....however the exclusivo is just about amazing. And the DES IS the exclusivo; just in a diiferent vitola.
Now that cigar needs to be a regular production stick!!

My Satori 3 Sampler from NHC today.
Fron NHC website....
"Satori is a Japanese word for "Enlightenment". A tribute to the camaraderie that exists between cigar smokers of all backgrounds, we think they should be 'lit' with a friend!
1 of each:
Karma - 5 x 52
Nirvana - 6 x 50
Zen - 6 3/4 x 52, box pressed double torpedo"
Can't wait! :cbig:

They are still available Empire cigars still had a few boxes of each this morning.
Smoking a zen as we speak. Very tasty.
Well I am not sure what all the fuss is about. I look at the limited edition stuff as if they are baseball cards. Fun to hunt and great to find. I enjoy both parts. I really do not care who makes it. If i am intrested then i try to find it. can it be fustrating when i can not find a stick that i really want to try, yes, but that is part of the hunt also.
Now am i a tat whore? Well i can say is that I am purchasing more and more of them. I will purchase all the red tubos that I find, I have a lot of fun with the monster series, still need to find a frank and a frank box, boris not bad, really like the drac, looking forward to getting a box of the Face. I think that Pete is really on to something with the new La Vertia line. Yes i jump for joy when i was interdused to the the La Raquesa line( cant beat the petite robusto)
I guess let the blenders, blend. Some of us will go to great links to find what the produce, others will be happy that they are not in the middle of the fight.
So go smoke what you like, drink what you like and join the hunt if you like. the point is to have a good time.

Saw a pic of the Satori ZEN and it's one of the most beautiful and delicious looking cigars I've ever seen!
