For me it was Pepin in general, as in his Black, Blue, JJ and 5 Vegas Miami lines. I avoided the Pepin hype for a long time and eventually tried a Blue that I thought was horrible. Gave it another shot about 6 months later on a friends recommendation and I am hooked now. I consider myself a true Pepin whore lately as a good portion of my collection is made up of Pepin now. The original Blue was gifted to me and I guess the storage conditions of that stick might not have been optimal but I am glad I was pushed back into trying his stuff.
