I've heard good things from friends whose opinions I would trust, but have yet to try one myself.

Rocky might be a PITA, but keep in mind, he has shit-tons of disposable cash to get Hamlet whatever tobaccos he wanted for these. Which is allegedly what he did, to let Hamlet make all the choices.

Adam, isn't he also one of if not THE hardest working guys in DC trying to fight anti smoking / cigar taxation related issues?

It's possible, and great that he's doing it. Doesn't make him any less of a PITA though.

Performing community service that directly benefits one's business does not a make one a great person. If he wasn't in the tobacco business, he wouldn't be there campaigning.

Never said anything about him being a great person, are you always angry???

So....none of the others in the industry are benefiting from his being in DC? You...I and every cigar smoker is also benefiting from his / their presence.

No one was talking about you or who you think is great, nor did I say there was no benefit to his work.

I was surprised when I read a story about this some time back, I'd give one a shot. No matter how I feel about Patel, this guy is a legend.

Having been to Burn in Naples and being treated like doodoo, I wouldn't buy to many though even if they were good.

Just added these to my shopping list for my next shpo visit. I figure if all you fogs are talking them up, probably worth trying.
