I do like the OpusX just not as much as others I guess. I still think its a fantastic cigar, just not the greatest cigar ever. The Anejo is great. I may light one up in a few minutes here.

I haven't had much from Ashton which they also make, but the VSG are really nice. I wasn't overly impressed with Diamond Crown Maximus. Was good but at that price I'd have a hard time picking it over some other sticks.

I'd love to try a cuesta-rey but no one around here carries them.
My thoughts exactly, the Maximus wasn't bad, just disappointing for the price.

I've only had one Ashton(A triple aged maduro) and I was not at all impressed with it, I definitely would not pay that much for an Ashton again, and honestly there are 3 buck and under sticks that are better than that Aston.

The maduro wrapper on a Hemingway makes it 10 times better(if thats even possible ).
