I purchased a 15 pk of these from CBid. I smoked about 5 of them within the first 2 weeks. I let the other 10 sit in the humidor for about 4-5 months.

I never understood the cheap price point, bc this is a great stogie! Finely constructed, great RP material.

The flavor is far from the "signature" RP flavor in most of his cigars, but it is nice to have something different once in a blue moon. They taste almost EXACTLY like my 1998 Romeo and Juliet habanos from Cuba though-

Just my opinion, but I just haven't had that many RP's that I really liked. Don't know why, but usually Im thinking of what I could've spent my money on instead.

Even the Decade cigar got bitter towards the middle to end of the cigar.

Agree with dmjones on, quality over quantity.

The only Puro Cubano I've smoked had serious draw issues, but in general I find RP to offer a lot of great cigars. In fact, their Vintage series remain some of my favorite cigars.

Another from Rocky, eh? Geez, you'd think he made some kind of bet with K. Hansotia from Gurkha to see who could put out the most different cigar lines. They both have a few gems, but I wish they would focus on quality over quantity.
