    Just now saw this. Sadly, it is not. It was a Reserve D'Chateau. I haven't seen any Opus 888 but I will find them!

    I haven't seen them either. Apparently my local got a box of 888's in their pre Christmas shipment and some guy came in that same day and bought every box of Opus in that shipment. It took the owner a month before he told me why he didn't have any Opus. I guess another example of money talks.

    I've found them online for $25 a stick but I dunno about that. There's a place about 100 miles from me that always gets an awesome selection of Opus that they sell at MSRP. I need to run up there one day and scope it out.

    I hope you can find a few Jesse. $25 is silly money.

    Bet if you were to ask the owner if the buyer was pantless you have confirmation that the buyer was His Excellency Sir. Dog Rockets.
    Who hoard Gurkhas, but likely deigns to smoke some lesser, in his estimation, cigars from time to time whens He is out checking on the work of his estate's field hands.

    Bob, you may be right. He said the guy was wearing very short daisy dukes and had extremely limp wrists.
