Man this sure is a tough poll! I picked the Padron 64 (Natural) but only because the one I had had 6 years on it and it was the best dam smoke I've ever had.

These are high end?

I would go with the Padron 64 everytime, unless the Opus has more then 6 years age...then it would be a tossup...

Out of those four I would have to say the Padron 64 natural Principe or the Diplomatico.

I am SHOCKED that opus x is in last place here. I have had some great sticks from each of these brands, but the best cigars I have ever had include opus and not really any of the others....

Agreed! Although I'm not shocked. The Opus X are way overpriced. I still voted for them because they kinda grow on you. Whereas the Padrons ani's have gotten less interesting over time. The most recent 26 I had will probably be the last I ever buy. The 64 naturals are pretty damn good but if I had to choose, I would still go with the Opus. Luckily I don't have to choose! I love them both!

Opus for me. I'm an Anejo fan, but an aged Opus is a rare treat! I have never been a fan of most Padrons. YMMV

Gotta go with Opus also. I have not had any with more than 2 years on them. I am waiting patiently for the ones in my humi to age.

Default Re: Fav of these high end selections

Had to go with the Anejo. Guess I have not found that right Opus yet but the ones I have had are good but not equal to the price I have found them for. I love a good Padron but then again I can get those whenever I would like. The Anejos seem to be the sticks I can never find so when I do get them I let them nap and then enjoy one or two the next time I find them.
