My first Opus....an audio journey

[jgohlke]

Well, I smoked one of my Opus X cigars. Thanks to Charlie (stogieman) for taking pity on me and gifting me one from his personal stash. Also thanks to Charlie for making it a small one! What a cigar! I was supposed to finish this review, but at the 1 inch mark, I had to go lay down. I felt like I drank 8 beers, ate a hot coal and then went on a roller coaster. It knocked me for a loop, but good. It was tasty, though. Anyway, for those of you with broadband (or for the very patient with dial-up) here's the audio review:

I really enjoyed it. It was quite the experience.

Also thanks to Russell (grateful...) for gifting me another Opus X...Since I had two, I felt I could splurge and smoke one! It will probably be a while before I smoke the next one!

Cheers,
Joe

Good review Joe,

Always look forward to your audio reviews. I especially liked the part:

"wow it's really going now...............................cough"


What happened to the couple minute follow up at the end ???

Keep em coming!

I think Joe had to go lay down for a few.

:laugh: Lifes too short to smoke a bad cigar :laugh: I loved the commentary. From expierience, Charlie is a good guy! <you owe me Charlie!> Keep the reviews coming. I am sure you will get a mailbox full of cigars as long as you are making live commentaries. When I come home to Orlando, I will make sure the Orlando crew can get together for a good cigar...
