In my experience Opus X cigars generally burn very uneven. It will certainly help to let them sit for a while in a properly controlled humidor but it is a common thing for these cigars to burn a bit uneven still.

I've smoked about ten cigars from my OCT 06 box. There were a couple that were really muted and bland but the rest have been pretty good.

Well not that I'm an expert or anything but it seems like a fairly average to slightly good deal. Although things like how old it is, which style of pipe are very, very important in discerning the value.

Too bad it wasn't any good, we could use a good $2.80 cigar and this one seemed like it could be it considering who makes it and who sells it.

I find them to be very full flavored ( or full bodied) with heavy, strong, thick smoke but not overly strong in the nicotine department ( strength ).

I've only had the "MK" which is a petite corona. I thought it was a very good cigar but a little ruff around the edges and could use some aging. Probably would be excellent with some age but who can say for sure. However, I don't really understand the need to buy a box before sampling one...

I gotta say I'm pretty surprised so many of you have or do chew tobacco. Call me stupid but I would of never guessed. I did it when I was like twelve threw maybe sixteen. I never really felt addicted and I can't say I completely enjoyed it but I did it anyway because I was young and I guess...

I was lucky enough to catch this one early. I picked up no.11 http://www.boswellpipes.com/Pipesforsale/Pipe11.html There were a lot of good cheaper pipes this time I thought. Also picked up a bunch of tobacco. The wife is going to be unhappy!

I like mild cigars and I like Davidoffs but they aren't worth the high price at all. I would much rather smoke an Ashton Cabinet as far as expensive mild cigars go.

Don't get me wrong I like the Cubs. However I would rather Goose Island not be located right next door. Goose Island should be for beer aficionados and not rowdy, wanting to fight, crap beer drinkers. There are sports bars for that. And this doesn't describe most Cubs fans but believe me...

I am very sad to hear it as I've been frequenting it for many years. And by the way, the Wrigleyville location which is walking distance for me is no comparison. Even if the selection improves the atmosphere will remain the same ( a bunch of loud, drunken Cubs fans who would rather be drinking...

I had jury duty today and when I came back the ones I would have really wanted were gone. Can you believe my luck, the one day to have jury duty! :angry: -mark

Yeah, pipes are great. And Frenchy's is a really great place to patronize, about as friendly and helpful as they come. It's always fun to have something new to learn about. Sooooo many different tobacos to try. Enjoy! -mark

I like the Ashton classic and the cabinet lines.

Hear hear!

I voted for Lane 1Q because I plan on trying some soon. I'm also going to pick up some Butternut Burly as well so that would be another good choice for me.

Welcome! It's always nice to see a new member in the pipe room. :thumbs: -mark

Really? That's really wierd. Do they have Canadian style government liquor stores or non Duty shops or something? Seems aweful unAmerican to me! :laugh: Are there no Liquor stores in Washington?

My wife smokes cigarettes and when we were in Canada a couple years ago she did pay something like 8-10 dollars. You get 25 cigarettes though in a pack if I remember correctly. Weird brands though, and didn't taste all that great compared to American cigarettes. I also found it absolutely...

If you are talking about non Cubans then yes, definitely. But you do know there is an embargo against Cuba here in the U.S right? ??? Your post has me wondering. Order those online, it works out especially nice for you since it will be totally legal. And far, far, far cheaper. :thumbs: -mark
