You can't get away with anything on this board. I sent BPP a couple of cigars cause he had mentioned he hadn't tried a 1495 cigar yet.
And wham, he fired back a nifty sampler to me. He didn't have to ask if I had tried most of these cigars. His sampler had cigars I never HEARD of before.
Roxor, Vibe, Fitipaldi, and a Fonseca completely new to me.
Only thing I like smoking more than cigars I havent tried are cigars I havent heard of.
Thanks Sid!
roxor and vibe are two new brands that are doing pretty well....rocky patel was invoved in the blending and production of the vibe (REO is another)...owned by eddie ortega and eric espinosa.....roxor is new,owned by a friend of mine in the cleveland area....made by perdomo...and really tasty...very well received at RTDA...fittipaldi is co-owned by the race car driver,emerson fittipaldi and augusto reyes and made in the reyes factory in the D.R.....
not certain what fonseca i sent...what was it??.....anything made by manuel quesada is terrific....
Way to go Sid. By the way REO and VIBE are just as good as most of the RP marquee names IMO
I've had the VIBE(thanks to sid) but haven't heard of the REO yet. What is it, is it a reblend of some of his other sticks or what?
REO....from united tobacco..blended by rocky patel,eric espinosa,and eddie ortega...
full-bodied..costa rican wrapper/binder is nicaraguan/filler a blend of tobacco's from honduras and nicaragua...

Ahh, I see. REO. Well, just add it to the list. The list keeps getting longer.
I have always enjoyed reo's. Still have some Vibe's in the humi i haven't gotten around to. BPP is good people.
Great work BPP.
Another one to try from EO(United) is the 601....great smoke.
