In all honesty: I love my Rocky P's. For me it is the Rocky Patel Sun Grown Junior. The taste and the draw is great and they are not that expensive. Really good to enjoy myself.

I read about it in Smoke Magazine, they’re WorthLivingTours.com. Looks like a great trip! Shows 3-times more than Rocky’s tour, is open to everyone that wants to go, first class private accommodations and even optional deep sea fishing before the tour! I won’t be waiting for an invitation from Rocky, I’ve already got my reservations for August!

That was a great little tour. I always wondered what a draw testing machine looked like — serious cigar geek, I know. Thanks for sharing this, Chris!

What about if we don’t get invited? I’ve heard Los Blancos is doing a tour open to the general public of that factory and 2 others. Has anyone else heard about it?

Probably, but for only 5 cents an hour.
