Re: RP Puro Cubano

I am interested in this as well. It does seem that every catalog you open ther is a new RPblend.

Re: RP Puro Cubano

Nothing from RP impresses or excites me anymore, it's like he's pulling new blends outta his ass left and right.

My thoughts exactly. Seriously...cant be that many blends left in the guy. If you had one box of every blend you could fill a garage.

Re: RP Puro Cubano

This blend was rushed by RP, was meant to be a stronger blend but came out as a medium instead of a full bodied.. he wanted to release it before S-CHIP took effect

Re: RP Puro Cubano

I just had to go read all about it With the SCHIP rush to get product in to the USA before the April 1 tax deadline, this large shipment left the DR before he discovered actual production differed from the final samples. How can you send out your product without knowing what kind of product it is?????????? What bad business if that is a true statement from CI.

Plus its not even a Puro, so what a name. Puro means all tobacco from the same country.

Re: RP Puro Cubano

I like quite a bit of his stuff but lately I'm into Don Pepin Garcia. I smoked an Edge maddie this afternoon and compared to the Tatuaje I just finished tonight it was like smoking newspaper. Really that much difference. He sure is pumping out a variety. I suppose he's striking while the fire is hot. He's a real busy guy.

Re: RP Puro Cubano

That is crazy for RP to do something like that if it is true. Yes he has a ton of blends and a few are great. But to rush a cigar into the country. thats not cool. Should have taken pride in his cigars and made them the way they are supposed to be.

Many of us would have paid a little more to have a better cigar. but now they are a CI exclusive that isnt supposed to be what it is.

Not a good business move at all
