That XXX in the shop cost me $20 after tax which seems to be a good price out here in Cali from what I've seen. It last me damn near two hours and was worth every penny and then some. To each his own though.

Yes, Opus are hit and miss and to imho a lot of cigars are like that. It's a little unfortunate when you pay top dollar for a cigar and it turns out to be that "miss" I recently smoked a LFD Chisel and I had to dump the thing half way because it just wasn't doing it for me. Just comes to show you even the top names can be a miss.

$20!!! That's just nuts for these sticks. I've seen them for around $13 around my hood. Either way, I'm glad you enjoyed the stick Mario, and hey, if it was worth the money, that's all it matters!

Very nice review Don. Keep up the awesome reviews brother.

Some high dollar sticks are hit or miss, but I muss say that I've never had a bad Padron. Always hit, no miss with them.

(Shameless plug for Padron)

Nice review, Ferdinand. Keep up the good work.

Huy. I'd rather pay $20 than the $35 they want down the street for the same damned thing. If I ever need a lot of OPUS X I'm gonna have to go where you go.
