Default ISO Opus X "Black Orchid" - October 30, 2008, 02:44 AM

I'm looking for an Opus X "Black Orchid" cigar... looks like an Opus X Petit Lancero (34-ish ring gauge) but with a fancy ragtop, AF 13 wrapper, Don Carlos binder, and Opus X filler.

Cash or cigars available in trade... SS me if you can complete the deal!

I have a cigar that looks exactly what you are describing. It is an ISOM partagas cigar. The story i got is that it is from a special anniversary humidor, and it has a black band with gold lettering. Not sure if its authentic, but sounds exactly like the specs you just described, right down to the "flower" on top of it

Yeah that's a fairly rare Partagas if it is authentic. I actually was looking into buying those some years ago.

Hey Evan, this sounds like some fluffy college sh*t you'd write too!

Carlito Fuente talked about smoking this cigar back in April of 2008:

Thank you all for all I can feel but not explain. Your friendship and love are my strength. Last night was so special...like every precious moment of life. My father and I bonded with a 2006 FFOX Love Story... then at exactly at 4:13 a.m. when I was all alone I noticed my watch of time as I lit my FFOX Black Orchid... as I contemplated my life... then, now and tomorrow...
See you Saturday!!
