This is where you can find pictures of the cigars we've been smoking, and a very short description of what/where/when and how long it took to smoke them.
The predominant flavor on this cigar was a mixture of leather and grass. Not really that great, it got better, the flavors in the beginning subsided and finished nicely. Not sure I would seek out more, but a decent smoke.

Still not impressed with this blend. It was very bland. Now, its a great looking stick, awesome looking band, and an impressive looking wrapper. If only the flavor could live up to all that.

Good flavors, doesn't change all that much. I think there are better things in this size and price range that makes this not even worth it.

This is the latest from Viva Republica. This smoke was a mild in body and flavor. It was grassy and had some barnyard notes, typical to the DR. It changed up after the first third, and picked up a little in strength. But I found the whole smoke to be a little outside of my flavor profile. If you are looking to try a new mild smoke this should be on your radar.

Opus X Exclusive Blend

It's not often I get the opportunity to try a new Opus vitola. So I jumped all over this since Paul gifted me one of these less popular size. It seemed like a younger stick, which is probably the case since they have only been out since late 2010. It had the signature leather and sweetnes known to the regular Opus smoker, but it was not as balanced some of the aged ones. I can't wait to hit Paul up for another one of these in a few years. Try one for now.
