Sorry. That sucks. Did you try a re-cut?Quote:

I did cut it back more after the first draw which temporarily stopped the gusher but by the end of the cigar my napkin was full of tar from blotting it. It's tough trying to keep the mouth and tongue away from the tar but since it is the first time that the short story has did this to me I will consider it a variance from the norm.Quote:

He wasn't kidding. I loved it. I'll be going back to this one, guaranteed.

RP has a handful of blends that are actually pretty good. This is one of them.

I have found a couple blends I don't hate from RP as well....the thing is...they have to rest for 3 years before they taste good and smoke without terrible flaws...I actually really like their Cuban Blend once they have rested for about 18 months.Quote:

That's funny because this guy was 14 months old and still required half a dozen re-torches.Quote:

Interesting. My experience is that RPs have impeccable construction. Not trying to invalidate your experience - it is yours after all. For me, flavours can be hit or miss for the brand but the construction is always flawless...Quote:

My personal experience with Rocky Patels is top-of-the-line. Cigar Aficianado's rating of the Royale at #5 this year is well earned. I like 'em.Quote:

And at the end of the day, there is always this disclaimer. I am a dumb dumb piper, what do I know about cigars? :p
Ive been patiently waiting for the first warm day to enjoy this 2013 Forbidden X 13 Belicoso

I thought about doing a review for it but just wanted to relax and enjoy it. Probably the strongest Opus Ive had to date, it put me on my ass.
Aroma out of the cello was amazing, pungent peat with that familiar Opus aged cognac rum barrel fragrance. Incredibly complex smoke w/heavy cayenne, earth, coffee, sugar cane, anise & plum.
Really wish these were easier to find and much cheaper, ah well.
Have a great day guys.

Good cigar and anything with a nice 8-point in the background gives me a chub.Quote:
