Finally had a decent Fuente....

I also have found few of the upper end Fuentes I did not like! Most Opus X, The Anjeo line especially the shark. The WOAM so many to name that I love!

Dave I used to feel the same way about Opus until I started aging them. Give them 2-3 years and they are absolutely amazing. This is coming from a guy that used to say that Opus was just an over priced turd rocket and to be honest, when smoked fresh I still feel the same way. I had smoked a few with 3 years on them a while back and they were downright some of the best smokes I have ever had to date and ever since than I let them sit before firing them up.
For me there is not a whole lot in the Fuente line that blow me away although their Sungrown line is one of my favorites. Other than the Sungrowns I usually only smoke Anejo, Opus, Work of Art/Short Story, Hemingways(On occasion) and the Tampa Sweethearts bundles(Good Winter time smoke).

Thanks for the suggestions

I think you misunderstood Dave. He kinda used a double negative of sorts but he loves Opus and all things high end Fuente. Trust me. He has experience and loves aged Opus.
