I enjoy the Sun Grown.

bigswol2 · 12-11-2009, 04:44 PM

I like the OWR and Sungrowns too!

The Rocky Patel Summer 2009 is probably one of the top five cigars I've ever had. I can't buy enough.

RevSmoke · 12-12-2009, 08:34 AM

I like the Edge Corojos - toros and torpedos.

This looks like a good one -

"Primers"" as they are referred to can be seen {link removed} harvesting tobacco. Harvesting refers to removing the mature ripe leaves from the plant. When the leaves begin to turn yellow, it is time to harvest them. Harvesting tobacco can be done by machine or by hand. These workers have chosen to do it by hand. Tobacco that is harvested by hand is either primed or stalk-cut. Bright-leaf tobacco that is hand harvested is primed. Priming involves picking leaves as they ripen. Leaves ripen and are harvested from the bottom of the stalk upward. Priming requires several harvests because the leaves ripen at different rates. Some growers use a pre-harvest chemical which causes yellowing of the leaves so more can be harvested at one time.

I see, thanks for the info! I continue to learn new things everyday on this board.

The thing with "recommend me a ...." threads is that they tend to result in hundreds of suggestions. Everyone's got a different favorite and there never seems to be majority consensus on what is the "best" of the brand. I appreciate everyone's input and I think I'm going to pick a few based on which lines got the most recommendations.

joeobx · 12-12-2009, 01:33 PM

I go through a lot of EDGE MAD. OWR MAD. and VIN.92. RP factory selects are some that I keep around also. Honduran Classics aren't bad with a little time on them and be had at a deceit price at auction at FAMOUS

Tredegar · 12-14-2009, 01:10 PM

I am a huge fan of the Renaissance, Vintage 90, Decade and OWR Maduro.

Scottw · 12-14-2009, 01:19 PM

Got two boxes of Original Release Decades. Yummy.

12-14-2009, 01:23 PM

Another vote for the V'90 and the Edge Sumatra and I also like the Edge Light, which is only light compared to the other Edges.

Went to a birthday event turned herf this weekend. Fuente's, Padron's, Oliva's, and Camacho's galore and I wound up buying a majority Patels.

I guess I really am a Patel Ho.

I'll take that. I've had worse labels.

Not to mention one of my newest buds is a Patel rep and me likes supportin' my bud.

I'm suprised only one person said the '08 Winter blend... They are great!

If you like them then try the Patel Bros. I hear they are pretty much the same blend.

I love the '08 Winter Blend, fantastic cigar. Too bad they are really hard to find now. Luckily one of the local shop has some. Got a Patel Bros but haven't tried it yet. My other favorite Rocky is also gone, the Edge Sumatra. Love that smoke.

Chemyst · 12-15-2009, 08:24 PM

How could I forget the RP Fusion and RP Double Maduros?
What others did I forget? The list goes on and on...

LOL
