picked these up from my local B&M. He told me they were over humidified. He sold them to me for 2/$5.00. How could I passed them up. Come home to daddy.

Did you ask him if they had mold issues since they were over humidified? If any mold was on the foot of the cigar you shouldn't smoke it. Either way, $2.50 for an opus is suspicious

Quesada Oktoberfest Kurz. Plesse forgive me for the sloppy cap cut. I forgot to put my Palio cutter back in the truck after cleaning it, so I had to use my teeth. LOL

Nice.... OLD SCHOOL
LOL. That's how I used to remove the cap on all my cigars before I got on this site and started reading about how great the Palios and Xikars are. I got so good at it that after a while I never had any problems with wrappers unraveling, etc.

Camacho Criollo. Very nice smoke. ...I'm really enjoying the new blend, it's much closer to the original blend from 10 plus years ago.

So, how does it fare as a budget short smoke? Let us know the total burn time if you don't mind...
That's a nice, well constructed little cigar. Not very complex, a little peppery, and not overly strong. I wouldn't lump it in with other "Cheapies". I got 45 minutes out of it, but I was in a rush and had to cut it short.

I'd buy a 5er of these
I agree with this. It is a pretty darn good cigar for the price. I loved the one I had. Havent had anything from Tat I didnt enjoy yet.

Big thanks to Sean for this moment. JFire, CVM4 & Jdog and me enjoying Destino lancero's.


What did you think of it? I had a destino super beli and thought it was much better than a regular super beli with a year on it

I really enjoy it. Its been said, it tastes like an aged Opus; I mostly agree. Jfire shared some Thomas Handy rye and its pairing exceptionally well.
