Morning smokers?

Keep hearing folks talk about the Opus X like it is the Holy Grail of cigars. Is it a super strong smoke? I love 'em strong, and haven't yet found a stick that knocks my socks off. Is the Opus X something I should have on my "must have" list?Martel:Hey, I smoked my first Opus X on a morning!"When I have found intense pain relieved, a weary brain soothed, and calm, refreshing sleep obtained by a cigar, I have felt grateful to God, and have blessed His name." - Charles Haddon Spurgeon0 -
Not super strong, but super complex, smooth, and balanced. I would not pay for them, except I hear they're even better with age. Most don't like 'em fresh, or at least not as much, but I thought it was a good cigar even so.Puff_Dougie:

I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.0 -
I regularly pair a man o war puro authentico with my morning coffee0

I absolutely love the elegancia's. One of the more unique cigars out there. Awesome any time of day!Martel:While it's not a connie, the San Cristobal Elegencia has a pretty mild and light colored wrapper that I love in the morning.
I think it is a connecticut wrapper, at least thats what the ccom description says.LLA - Lancero Lovers of America0 -
When I worked Graveyard I would have a smoke when I got home after having breakfast...a good medium cigar and then off to bed with that nice smelling cigar cologne.0

Usually 5-Vegas Classic with my morning coffees, but after reading posts about Opus X Lost City now I may have to reconsider this, for just 1 time only, hmmm.0

I'm going with padron londres maduro!! Chocolate sweet short and mild but full of flavor!! Plus it's a cheapie so you can't go wrong!!Money can't buy taste0

Yeah, I have a weird relationship with Pepin's cigars. This is one I absolutely love. I thought the wrapper was a bit darker than most connies. It's labeled as the dreaded "natural" but listed as Connecticut in the description, so I guess you're right. My bad. Still, a great stick.Gray4lines:

I always enjoyed my cigars with that first cup of coffee. The sun's not up. The kids & wife are asleep. Peaceful & relaxed before the hustle & bustle of a new day begins anew. A little bit of total relaxation. That being said I always enjoyed the earthy flavor profiles & nothing too spicy with coffee0

Opus X is the only cigar that got me sick to my stomach. No way I could do that in the morning. Brave man!Puff_Dougie:

Lot 23 (it's made me puke twice)
Anejo
some JdN's (but still, many of these are good)
Little Devil
Pretty much anything from LFD, especially if it's a big cigar (but I still love them a lot in chisels and chiselitos, just stay away from the DL Digger-too big.)
MOW Armada Toro Grande (great stick, but corona is better-less strength, more flavor)
Camacho Maduro
That's just a few, but the Opus X didn't hit me like any of them did. There's some strength to it, sure, but I didn't get it in the gut. So there you have my list of cigars I'll never smoke on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning, with bitter and acidic coffee.Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

Why did the Lot 23 give you such reactions? It seems so creamy and mild to me, I feel like I could smoke 3 in a row and be perfectly content.Martel:I'll give you my list:

Wish I had time to, but if I did, it would be a Man O' War Virtue.0
