Question about Opus X

[Donk]

So are all Opus X made from the same tobacco? Meaning the same filler, binder & wrapper?
I know there are maduro versions. I'm talking about is there a difference in say a normal everyday Opus X super belicoso and say a BBMF? Or say a power ranger and a chili pepper? I have some Opus X at home that were $20 a stick and some that are over double the price. Is there a difference in tobacco or just its shape? Also does anyone know anything about the Black Orchid other than the typical info online, as in you've smoked a couple?

This isn't really answering your question, but from my understanding, they are the same tobacco (except the maduro) but the others are just rarer sizes and shapes.

Wrapper and binder are a rosado and filler is a blend Fuente uses only for opus. They might be tweaked a bit from size to size.

I know Lost City and probably a few other releases are probably different blends as well.

Yes lost city, and the other LE releases come from a different crop all together.

All I know is I had one given to me for my b-day when I first started smoking cigars. Still have the box, wish I could smoke it now to better appreciate what I had.

I am looking at the "coffin" now, was an Opus X Perfecxion A. What did I smoke, still can learn. Thanks!
