Just took a quick trip to Jackson Hole for a conference and was surprised to see several sizes of Opus X in a store there for $9-$17 per stick. Now thats high, but last time I saw 'em they were priced at three times that, so I bought a few. Damn, hate to admit it, but they're pretty amazing smokes. Stood on the balconey at Snow King and smoked under a full moon with a glass of sotol (kind of a fancy tequila). Strong, peppery and tasty- I had a nice buzz on before I knew it.

Are these starting to show up more commonly now or are they still so sought after that they are only available at really high prices? I know a lot of ppl here are fans of more economical smokes (and I agree!) but occassionally its fun to spring for an overpriced but tasty cigar.

A while back I read that Carlos Jr. was going to start shipping more Opus X out west. Seems lots of us out here were moaning and groaning about how they were so scarce and you had to go back east to find any. Finally we're starting to see some and at fairly decent prices for Opus.

You never thought anyone could die of acne, and who could believe it would happen to someone as great as Bill the Cat. I was devastated.
