RP has had some good smokes in my opinion. I liked the Edge, the Sungrown and even the Indian Tabac Super Fuerte. Haven't smoked or bought any of them recently so I can't comment on if or how these blends have changed over the years but they use to be in my regular rotation.

Smoked quite a few of them over the years. Rocky Patel Edge Missile. 5", 48 ring torpedo. Nicaraguan filler and binder, available in both a Honduran maduro or corojo wrapper if I remember correctly.

Edit: A google search will find them at Mikes, JRs, and other places for around $8/cigar. Back in the day we use to be able to get them here on the bids for less than half of that price.

You are being generous…………..think it is more like 3 blends… He is giving Hansotia a run for his money in the cigar band design industry though…
