hey - cigars and vintage chandeliers go together like.... Well... Ummmmm....

never mind. Carry on!

Nothing brings out the subtle complexities of a fine cigar like the light from a vintage chandelier. I've always said that.

I was just curious as to how others felt about the Rocky Patel line and if you have any suggestions from their inventory.

Have you tried this PATEL BROTHERS Toro Maduro Cigar. It's heaven

I absolutely loved this cigar. If you like Rocky Patel and full bodied cigars then this is the cigar for you. If you or anyone on this forum has smoked this before let me know what you thought about it

I got a RP sampler of robustos from Famous; here's what I thought of them.

Good:
-Xtreme Sumatra - Very nice draw and smooth, semi-spicy flavor.
-Rosado - Similar to above, but not as good and more one-dimensional.
-Honduran Classic - Nice, smooth maduro.

OK:
-Famous Signature series - Creamy, but one-dimensional.
-American Classic - Pretty mild, but nice; never got harsh to the end.
-Patel Bros. Next Gen. - Pretty light for a maduro, okay flavor.

Bad:
-VUDU - Harsh and gave me a bad headache.
-Cuban Blend Maduro - Started to taste like ammonia 1/3 of the way in and it just got worse.
