Forbidden X cigars?

[BEN(SWEDEN)]

I have never had one and as I understand it they are more rare then regular opus and cost more. Thinking about trying to get one but are they worth the extra $ and how are they different in taste?

Will let you know if I ever get to try one :stretchgr

As with the Forbidden and Lost City (and limiteds in general), it's hard to say whether they are "worth" more as they are all subjective. There is a price that they should cost, for many it won't be worth it.

Never had one, not particularly out to get one either :dunno:. Doesn't mean I wouldn't smoke one if I got a good deal.

mmmm.... Forbidden X.. good stuff

 

[Private Yesman]

I have a few Forbidden Xs that I've kept in the oven for a few years, but haven't smoked them yet. I really can't say. I've smoked a few Lost City's. I recommend at least trying them once, however they don't match the Opus in Strength. Definitely Opus over L.C.

Now, the Don Carlos Edicion de Annivesarios are a definite step up from the regular Opus.

I bought one the other day for $27 at a B&M. I will report back in a few weeks after I smoke it!

Thnx, wich one did you buy?

 

[JGD]

I bought the 2008 Journey To Chateau De La Fuente Box. I know it was a Lost City- I'm not sure which one though. I'll have to check in a bit.

I've enjoied the few I have have smoked, and would tihnk they are worth the dough. of course, as they are expensive, they do not have a spot in my regular rotation.

 

[tmoney2007]

I have the one from the CRA pack 2 but I haven't smoked it. I choose not to buy into the fuente hype. Obviously,... I buy into the tatuaje hype, haha.

 

[PLUSH]

Never smoked one.

I more interested in the 5 who said don't want to try one? Is it the price?

 

[ahbroody]

I know for me price is a factor as to why I wont try. Would rather put towards stuff I know I like

 

[stroke]

never tried one. I don't necessarily want to try one, but I don't not want to try one. I'd try it if it came my way, so I didn't select an asnwer.

 

[njstone]

I've only had a few Opus X, but have loved the ones I've had. I have one Forbidden X ... I'll probably light it up within the year.

Can't agree more. They make Opus seem like budget smokes.

 

[jwintosh]

great stick!! definetly worth the price IMHO. helps to keep me from smoking more!!

 

[ciggy]

Will let you know if I ever get to try one :stretchgr

Ditto!! These are very hard to find in a single. Can't justify a 5'r...just to much $$$

 

[smelvis]

Now I am actively looking dammit

 

[e-man67]

There used to be a reference site out there on all the Fuente stuff and I could have swore I read that the Forbidden X is the exact same as the regular Opus X stuff.
