    name dropping??.....they happen to be friends of mine (as is rocky patel,btw)........i don't really think that was name dropping...i really don't give a flying fvck about CI...they're wrong in stating that the reo and vibe are rocky patel's cigars......he was involved (to a small degree) in the blending of both cigars.
    the cigars are made in the portion of nestor plasencia's factory where rocky's cigars are made.

    now,after years in the biz,if you want to learn some of what i might know...that's fine.
    if you want to accuse me of name dropping...you can kiss my ass......

    the blending was done by eddie,erik,and to a lesser degree,rocky.....based on the tobacco's available......the vibe was going to be made by caribe...but both are being made by rocky....

    I would try and answer that for you, but, there is a good chance that BigPoppaPuff will go nuts again and flex his muscles to show everyone he knows all! He should be able to answer that for you, he'll just ask his buddies...you know the makers!

    See he had the answer even before I could type this out! He is my hero!!!

    I just called CI... They're changing the name on the site:

    Reo by Eddie Ortega, Erik Espinosa, and to a lesser degree Rocky Patel

    Bigpoppa,

    Everyone here knows I am slow at best but you just said both the vibe and REO are made by Rocky. Right?

    And I have no clue how blending works. How does a blend come about with two primary and a smaller degree participant.
    Thank you in advance.

    blending a cigar is about finding what goes with what in the filler...the proper binder..and what wrapper......after they decide what tobaccos will go into the MAKING of the cigar...they make the cigar.....
    ...in this case,eddie,eric and rocky probably sat around and tested various blends...when they hit on what they wanted...that finished the blending process.......

    rocky has a section of nestor plasencia's factory...in that section of the factory,the cigars are made...rolled,bunched,and boxed.....

    blending a cigar is the process of combining the various tobacco's that will go into the making of the cigar.....

    clear??...i hope so....

    as an addition to my prior post,as to why rocky would be a lesser participant......the brands,reo and vibe are owned by eddie and erik.....rocky has his own brands to worry about......the final decision as to what the owners want should be from the owners....
