I like it better than the September 15th collection but less than the July 27th collection. I can't wait to try one of Rocky's January 18th collections that will be released shortly after his January 17th collections.

Seriously, Rocky's are all hype and no flavor. Well, I guess you could count "bad" as a flavor. He has more cigars under his label than all the other Marca's combined. He makes up for his bad sticks by constantly producing new sticks with new hype. When in actuality it is just another bad cigar, who he hopes people will try just once out of curiosity alone.

I hate Rocky's and they are much too overpriced IMO. (if you couldn't already tell )

What do you have to sell? They're not worth very much but I might buy them from you.

I am waiting for the January 19th collection which will be a combination of the wrapers from the 17th and 18th.

I for one am tired of tring to keep up with the new blends Rocky puts out on a daily basis.

I've only had the Decade of those 2. I paid 10 bucks for it and was very underwhelmed.

For that money hand me a PAM 64 Principe anyday

But hey I also really like Fuente Curly Heads, so to each there own right

Just sounds like another stick out of Rockys hype machine. I have said it before and will say it again, I wish he would stick to keeping his good lines consistent rather than coming out with new cr@p every other week or season in this case. CI can only blow out so much cr@p at a time.

<----- Wonders what Bam Bam thinks of RP

You really made me laugh brother.

I will stand up and say I like the ī92, will probably always smoke them if for nothing other than nostalgia.

When I really started getting into different sticks several years back I swore by RP. Not anymore... Maybe the quality has dropped or I have just opened my horizons so to speak.

I picked up the Autumn last week as I was between flights in Miami - didnīt finish it. The burn was rough, in the second third it tried to be sweet and for about 2 seconds it reminded me of a CC LGC but then it gently swayed back to an unsatisfactory cardboard taste.

Not for me anymore...
