Default Opus X vs Forbidden Opus X

I just wondering how do they compare in flavor and in strength?

I have yet to have a Forbidden, I have one that I put to bed for a sleeping beauty status nap.

But from what I've been told the Forbiddens have a closely similar flavor profile but are much smoother than the Opus. Now whether that's true or not I couldn't tell you.

If I had one it would have already been smoked. Nothing in my humi is safe from the torch.

This is a great approach. Nobody knows what tomorrow holds . . . so you might as well smoke your best today.

It's an Opus,,,there are subtle differences but none that will stand up and shout in your ear that they are that much different. Been smoking Opus since 1998.

Cigary, are you saying that the cost difference isn't justifiable?

Sometimes the best you have is nice to show off. At the same time I understand where you are coming from. I have an Ashton ESG sitting in my humi right now. Just am waiting for the right time to smoke it.
