Initial Light
this is more of a general review. over the last year 3 times a friend has given me a small Opus X as a gift. they have a wonderful reputation but I wonder if that hss gone to their head? each time the cigar was harsh and had a very tight draw. the most recent one had to be re-lit a couple of times. at the price these sell for I'm over Opus X. give me a diamond crown, a Padron '64, even a nice Partagas... just my opinion. curious if anyone else has been disappointed in these...
First 1/3:
starts out okay and creates nice burn
Second 1/3:
re-lit once
Final 1/3:
gave up - draw too tight
