I'm going to preface my review by saying that I have always been critical of OpusX cigars and never ever had one that was a "religous-experience"

Thanks to My friend:
Finnman...I can say that I have now had it!!!

APPEARANCE:
Very Big and inviting cigar..not to many oils and smoother veined than most Opus I have smoked!

DRAW:
Being a big cigar...I thought there would be problems...but the draw was absoluteley perfect!!!

CONSTRUCTION/BURN:
Well-made...no soft spots...but I did re-light some trouble spots every now and then.

TASTE/AROMA:
Here is where this cigar excelled!!
Pre-light aroma was Heavy tobbacco smell with a nose tingling sting...like from an island I know!The cigar was Full-bodied throughout the length..almost strong but no harshness at all.The taste was FU**ING AWESOME!!!It changed from chocolate to hazelnut to cherry and other sweet flavors I can't pinpoint!In a word....COMPLEX!!!!
The aroma while this thing buned smelled of Hazelnuts...really....just fantastic!!!

SUMMARRY:
While the "A" size is not my favorite of sizes....this was 2.5 hours of smoking with one of the tobbacco GODS...truly RELIGOUS!!
There is a "NEW" cigar on my list as being "The Best I've Ever Had"....and this was it!!

A solid 97..IMO!!
