Ladies and Gentlemen -
I have a confession to make.
I smoked a couple RP Winters when I was in Miami last week...
AND I really liked them!
Anyone else tried these?

I hear you. Early on I smoked a lot of 92's but the quality doesn't seam the same but these were tasty.

How would you describe the cigar? Full bodied, spicy? I just grabbed one without knowing anything about them.

I got one as a lottery payment and want to give it some rest.
I'll be curious to see how they compare.

I kind of gave up on RP when he started competing with Gurkha for who had the most blends on the market.
:-) I only smoke the Edge Sumatra and the occasional 92 these days.

Edge Sumatra, Mmmmmmm Now that was a fine cigar.
Only have a few left and hold them for special days.

They are great, I was able to pick up a bunch a few months ago, and I am happy that I did.

I had to go look and see what I have left and I'm down to 3.
Time to start looking for more

According to Lt Skills, they got this one right. He loved it.
As for the Edge Sumatra, the Decade is the same cigar. No kidding

I would call it a medium bodied cigar.
To me it was like smoking the '92 I remembered smoking 5 or 7 years ago with not quite the nic hit if that makes sense (?). I was a big fan of the '92 but have been let down by RP sticks the last few years.
I didn't do a review because I was so caught off-guard.
I picked them up at Sabor Havana in Miami - they always have a lot of RP stuff in stock.
Anyways, just thought I'd share this with you all here.
Now back to our regularly scheduled program.

I know the Decade has the Sumatra wrapper that was formerly used on the Edge Sumatra, but I have never heard of it being the same blend.

Smoke the Sumatra...then smoke the decade....I swear, if there were even a slight difference, my tastebuds missed them completely

I'm waiting for Rocky to put out the days of the week. Wonder which day will be most profitable for him?
