wow, what a tough decision. I'd go anejo first, then opus X, the maduro anni 26th are fantastic, but very expensive. But the red hammer maduro beats them all, but i dont like paying there price tag. So a shark for 15 is A ok for me.

Just a point...

This poll wants us to determine if 2 limited release smokes from Fuente
are better than 2 regular release smokes from Padron.

Most people have more experience with the Padrons, simply because
they are available throughout the entire year.

I usually only get a handful of OpusX, and even fewer Anejos, each year.
So, it's difficult to have a favorite OpusX or Anejo. I smoke what I can get.

padron 64 for me. I've only smoked a few 26's and didn'y really notice much difference from the 64. I tried anjeo for the 1st time 2 days ago and loved it I smoked an Opus last night and was dissapointed again. I had to relight it 50 plus times. I'm going to try the perfection X and if Idon't like that I'm done with Opus.

Opus don't have the leaf meant to keep the cigar burning. Carlito couldn't get the taste he wanted for the cigar with the leaf included, so it's left out. Which equates to needing to keep at the cigar to keep it burning, or constant relighting.

Randy...you worry too much about what people think is good or great...just find something you enjoy smoking man.. :tu

But I'd say the Padron line is very good.

We'll if I pay $16.00 for a stick I expect a good even burn. These sticks should be in the $7.00 to $9.00 range. Relighting that many times has to affect the taste as well. Carlito still has alot work to do with that wrapper IMHO.

I voted for the Opus mostly because I have only had 1 Anejo which was good but plugged so I didn't get a great experience from it. The Padron's... well lets just say I haven't cared for them as much as others have and leave it at that. :rolleyes:

The couple of Opus I have had have realy given me a great taste experience. :dr
