If I plan on smoking a rarity for me cigar( I mean $20.00 and up) I smoke it on s clean palate. Now I have smoke in the morning the broke out a Padron 64 that evening and no issues. But for me my palate gets fried if I chain herf. ??

It usually takes my palate a couple hours to really clear the last stick I've had, but if you move from a conny to an Opus X your palate should be pretty open. As long as you don't smoke them back to back I'm not sure it will matter much. I'd just stay away from anything with a lot of pepper/spice. Enjoy the BBQ sounds like good times.

Maybe something mild so you don't burn out your palate before you smoke the opus x?

Smoke 2 Opus'. Problem solved

Depends on how quickly you get the dreaded burnout palate. A conny would probably be a safe bet.

I would have bourbon and shoot the chit, then have the Opus after the steak.

Smoke the opus then a anejo!! But depends on how much age the opus has

Eating will cleanse the palate. Personally I'd smoke a mild cigar first if you want. I'd suggest an avo personally.

Not sure if there is any truth to it but damn if I didn't have it happen to me when I smoked an Opus after a big Ribeye. Kicked my ass, only cigar to ever do that to me.

Great looking dinner there. Glad you had a great time. Imo if your not use to full bodied cigars the opus will be rough.
