Not sure what Fuentes you have been smoking, but the SG 858's are certainly
not bland...

I love the Opus X line, and the DC line used to be excellent, but I seem to
find a lot of burn problems on them now, and the flavor isn't what it used
to be.

The green labeled smokes are good beginner smokes, but far more flavorful
than, say, Macanudo...
