#5 - Opus X Lost City torpedo I bought last spring that has been sitting in the desktop.
I can see how other people might appreciate it more, certainly not a bad cigar, but it left me wanting. I find Fuente stuff to be bland, overpriced, and overrated. Back in the 2000s when I was smoking cigars the first time, Fuente was just another brand as far as I remember. They were not overpriced or overrated, but even back then I found them bland. With potential. They always reminded me of that girl in high school who would let you get to third base, but never home. I always thought that if they would turn up the volume on their cigars just a little, they might click with me.
With this one, I tried to forget what I usually think about Fuentes, and that it cost $33, and approached it like the $10-$15 EZ, LCA, Tat, etc., that I sometimes smoke. On that metric, it was OK but didn't wow me. There are a lot of other $10 cigars I would rather have.
Sometimes I think I am too proletariat. But, I keep trying.
