I fired that baby up, and... nothing. It's an ok smoke I guess but it really didn't do much for me. I guess it just goes to show how different tastes can be. I ended up only smoking 2/3's before tossing it.

Justin, This is the wonder of blind tasting. With the pretty OpusX band I might have thought differently and smoked with the preconception that this "must" be good because it is an Opus. The tasting is more important than the guess, I throw in a guess because I am willing to stick my neck out at the risk of looking foolish. I think that is part of the fun. I find that I am getting better at guessing flavor profiles and country of origin, but I am wrong way more often than I am right. But every time I do this I learn something.
