Well today i ran across a shop that had OpusX and i bought a Super Belisco... Any suggestions or tips for this cigar? Is it strong and need a good meal? Better with a certain drink? Also, should i let it age in my humidor? If so about how long? Just curious. For the price i dont figure ill get too many of them so want my experience to be the best possible lol

    They are strong, so prepare accordingly. Do you have any idea how much age it had at the shop? Around here, I've bought Opus with some significant age because they just don't fly off the shelves. Other places, you will only find the most recent release. Maybe try calling the place and asking if they know when those arrived.

    I would assume these are nit flying off the shelf because i didnt know the shop existed AND inside the humidor room was another room with keypad lock and the let in one person at a time while they supervised u for these type cigars. Cheapest price in there was $25+. Yep mine came from that room lol. Im proud of it anyway lol

    If it's relatively fresh, it's going to be a flavor bomb and very strong. After a year or two, it settles to being med to full strength with all the great flavors still, but smoother. I need to revisit them. Last time I smoked an Opus was 4 years ago.
