The cigars all come cedar wrapped. Now the Perfection is always cedar wrapped, but it's a nice bonus to have the RdC and Robusto draped as well!
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.
It's price...duh!What's not to love about a OPUS.
Seriously, those are some pricey sticks but they way the brothers talk about them they must be worth it.It's price...duh!
I'll believe it when I see it. I personally find it hard to believe that one Opus is worth 2, 3, heck maybe 4 good cigars!Seriously, those are some pricey sticks but they way the brothers talk about them they must be worth it.
They're good and for some the Opus really tickle the pickle (Wade!).Seriously, those are some pricey sticks but they way the brothers talk about them they must be worth it.
What are the advantages to the cedar wrap?Damnit! Now I am going to have to find a tin. None of my RDCs or Robos are cedar wrapped.
None really, if you leave them wrapped long enough they pick up a slight cedar flavor.What are the advantages to the cedar wrap?

Well I do not have a ton like say maybe Matt or Wade, but I do have several I keep on hand. I do not but a ton but they are very good IMHO. But to each there own.I'll believe it when I see it. I personally find it hard to believe that one Opus is worth 2, 3, heck maybe 4 good cigars!
Best cigar made in my opinion,,,if you can get them at sticker, they are worth it but I won't buy at the inflated pricing some people charge,,,they should be shot for charging that much for a cigar,,,,no matter what excuse they claim to have.What's not to love about a OPUS.
Very true,,,if you smoke them fresh they will do some damage to you (unless they have been stored for at least a year before you bought them) but I would advice leaving it to some rest before smoking,,,much better cigar with age on them.Purchased my first Opus today, Fuente Fuente. Was hoping to smoke it over the Christmas break. The B&M guy told me to let it age a year in the humidor.
Very true,,,I have about 20 of these in different sizes and about half with the cedar wrap. These are probably about 3-5 years old and when I pull one out you can taste the difference.None really, if you leave them wrapped long enough they pick up a slight cedar flavor.
I keep a few on hand too, don't get me wrong I like them. I just find it easier to spend the same money on other stuff but I do buy a few Opus a year. Hell and thanks to Kumar (wigwam motel) I have an A which I have wanted for 2-3 years now.Well I do not have a ton like say maybe Matt or Wade, but I do have several I keep on hand.

don't get hooked like wade. you'll have to start getting rid of all those awful island smokes so you can have those domican puros!!!!And now I have THREE Opus (thanks Ish, Casey, and Danny!) and all are a different vitola. :clap:
Well, I don't know if I'll like them more than me Partagas...don't get hooked like wade. you'll have to start getting rid of all those awful island smokes so you can have those domican puros!!!!
That's one more than me been wondering when would be a good time to smoke them... So far my favourite NC has to be Tatuaje. Now I pull my hair every time Matt offers them for sale.And now I have THREE Opus (thanks Ish, Casey, and Danny!) and all are a different vitola. :clap:
Actually Opus are good right from the B&M as well as letting them age. If you bought it to smoke today, Smoke it. They are a good stick.Purchased my first Opus today, Fuente Fuente. Was hoping to smoke it over the Christmas break. The B&M guy told me to let it age a year in the humidor.
