I don’t know what else to say about opusx. Although it is just the most common version and the smallest size, it is still very fragrant and can let you enjoy it quietly for 45 minutes. I hope I can buy more in the future. Come on Lucas

I’ve had many variations of Opus x over the years. This vitola has eluded me so far. I do enjoy corona and petit Coronas and wanted to see how it affected flavor. This was superb. I get those classic opus flavors of creamy grass and hay with a sweet nuttiness. The construction was perfect. This was as good of any opus I’ve smoked. Really glad to see a few of these come through Oxford.
