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:
