Okay Eddie, you won!
As some of you might have noticed, Eddie's on occasion made reference to firing up a cigar and smoking it furiously before starting up some of his more epic rants. Eddie knows his cigars, as many Morons can attest. Eddie's has been hounding me (okay, not really hounding, but insisting, as any good enthusiast does) in emails and chat that I give Arturo Fuente's Opus X cigars a try for a few months now. It was kinda a yeah, yeah, I'll get to it kind of thing, given my fairly recent infatuation with smoking pipes, I had other sorts of tobacco-y goodness on my mind.
Mmmmm....perique.

Mmmmm....perique.
So, anyway, had a friend that'd had a really shitty week, so me and another of our friends decided to treat him to some good grub at a place we knew of. He's also a cigar guy, so we thought we'd get some kickass cigars for after, visited our local Merchant of Death (no, not a gun shop, the other kind of Merchant of Death).
Stepped into the humidor, took a look around, gave my other friend (he knows what a good cigar is when he's handed one to smoke) some basic pointers as far as choosing cigars, and saw them...Opus X. Perfect.
And if you're gonna buy a cigar for someone who's had a shitty week, you get a fucking cigar, Double Coronas, accept no substitute.
Dear God what an amazing friggin' cigar, and were very much enjoyed by all, and definitely gave our friend a needed boost in spirits (bit of Chivas helped on that front too). Easily the best I've had. Strong too, I can handle a stout smoke, but my knees were wobbly for a good bit afterword. Eddie, you were absolutely right, a bit of a bankbreaker, but when you need something special, Opus X is the cigar. Thanks, Eddie!
