I've had a couple Opus X's and they are good smokes, but I believe they are overpriced. Saw some Opus X Perfec. X at a local place near San Diego selling for $55, and found some at JR's in NJ for $18. Prices do vary tremendously. Also, saw some good fakes in Punta Cana DR.
The tobacco used is rare, and this initial DR sun grown wrapper by AF received much publicity. This full flavored cigar has lived up to it's hyped, but after much seeking, and finally tasting this "forbidden fruit", I've realized there's a lot other good smokes out there that are easier to find, and with a "stable price".
