Thanks Chris. I will update with more information and pictures. At this moment I am taking a break from cigar and cigar related topics. Can you imagine that I haven't smoke a cigar almost a week now?

Hi Dennis, I did not take any FL 1961 though I like the cigar. I took Diez from 2008. The Cubans didn't like it nor the Opus X. I believe they do not like 100% Dominican flavor. However, they enjoyed Zino Davidoff Crown series cigar with Peruvian tobacco. They did not bash any non- Cuban cigar rather than had constructive criticism for not finding rich flavor, overpowering strength, metallic taste, less complexity in non-Cuban cigars. I did not agree about the complexity part but do agree about the overpowering strength, less rich and metallic taste part. I will post more about it in the future.

Rip, did you happen to take any Frank Llaneza 1961 or Litto Gomez Diez for them to try. Very complex and different from an Opus in many ways.
Hi Jeep Edson, Denominacion de Origen Protegida(D.O.P) is the title of Protected Denomination of Origin reserves for a selection of the highest quality or most outstanding brands whose cigars are manufactured to the most exacting standards from tobaccos grown only in that particular areas.

I can imagine, lol....My wife bet me a box of cigars that I couldn't go an entire month without smoking one cigar. So starting Jan. 1 no more cigars for a month....it will be too cold to smoke a cigar...but if there were a 55 degree day...it would be hard!
