I'm sending out a package to my nephew in Afghanistan and he mentioned that he especially liked the Fire churchhills.
I did a quick search and struck out.
Please, no commentary on whether it's a decent stick. We've had this conversation. But he likes what he likes.
Thanks.

The "Fire", even though it is an RP & Nestor Plasencia cigar, is actually sold under the Indian Tabac marque, not the RP marque. Replace "Rocky Patel Fire" in your google search with "Indian Tabac Fire" and you'll find them for about $40/box of 20.
That's the info I sent to him along with where to get them
Looks like they only have the maduro version and he specifically commented on the natural.
I'll keep looking and will piece together other smokes as well to ship out to him.
It's funny.
I sent some really nice sticks including some of the boutique brands, some of the high end work horses, and a bevy of random sticks.
Of all those, the one he commented on was the ITC Fire.
Go figure.
Please extend my thanks for his service Tailgater
Both were good. Perhaps one of the few good cigars ever produced by Indian Tabac.
I don't ever remember there being a natural Fire by Indian Tabac, only Corojo and Maduro.

I wasn't sure of the wrapper, just simply that it wasn't a maduro.
If what you say is true, then it was the corojo.
I used to smoke the small sized Fire maduros as a good, cheap, quick smoke.
I never cared for the corojo version, but it probably had 6+ years of aging on it before I sent it off to him.
