i just received an 8-5-5 and now i'm really looking forward to smoking it. about the opus x... my wife sent me the journey to chateau de la fuente box set to celebrate the birth of my son. i smoked one the day he was born. i thought it was a great smoke. a lot of complex flavors that seemed to change every inch or so from leathery with a cream finish, to wood and peat with pepper finishes. i smoked that thing down to the nub and it almost pained me to finally put it out. i've got one more that i've been aging so it's almost three years old now. i will most definitely do a review of that when i finally get around to smoking it. possibly as a redeployment celebration cigar.
