Similiar to OpusX/Anejo

[IgwanaRob]

Are there any reasonable priced (read as cheaper) cigars that have flavors close to the OpusX/Anejos?

 

[bfreebern]

Not anything similar to me, but try the Litto Gomez. They are a nice alternative to the Opus.

I find the Fuente Cuban Belicoso is a fine alternative that is a lot less expensive. They are great smokes that have a profile that is very similar.

 

[bfreebern]

Hmmm, I wouldn't say the Cuban SG has a similar taste. It's sungrown and the Opus are rosado.

not really cheaper but some similarities would be imo la aroura 100 anos.
easier to find but still in the $10-$15 range. good cigar see if can find one and set fire to it, i think youll like it.

I agree that the 100 Anos is a nice cigar, but I don't think it's even close to being similar in taste to an Opus - way different flavors... My .02

Unfortunately, Opus and Anejo are what they are - a masterful blend by Fuente. There are a number of cigars, though, that have fantastic blends which are as enjoyable to me as an Opus - just not the same flavor.

Actually, one that is a bit easier to find and I think is a great alternative (although not a lot less expensive) is the Diamond Crown Maximus. It doesn't necessarily taste like an Opus, but it is a great cigar in it's own right! You can find some of them in the $10-15 range.

Agreed on all points. I love the 100 Anos but to me a more mild smoke but it does have great flavor. My advise is to jump on good deals when you see them and build up a good supply.

My thoughts exactly. :thumbs:

If you can't find these I usually settle for DCM's! :thumbs:

LG's are the most powerful smoke I've ever had, IMHO.

And guys DCMs are sungrown wrappers, but they are still very excellent! :thumbs:

This is very true.

Not that it is entirely comparable but the Ashton Cabinet series VSGs are similar in look and in heartiness (if this is even a word )

Again, another nice smoke - but definitely not the same flavor of the Opus or Anejo... Not cheap, either.

The 858 Rosado tastes similar to the Opus

Hey! I resemble that remark!
