I voted for the Olde World Reserve Maduro, my usual daily smoke. Followed closely by the Edge!
 
Favorite RPs would have to be:

1) Vintage 1990 - Churchill - these after six months in the humidor have been verrrrry tasty with notably oily wrappers.

2) Indian Tabac Super Fuerte Maduro PB - these straight out of the box/bag have been consistently good also with notably oily wrappers.

Either or both of these have made their way into what I hope will be a long-term rotation. Just another dratted reason to rationalize a larger humidor :).

Tried the Fusion (interesting wrapper combination) and the Sun Grown - found them both decent and worth another try in six months. Tried an Edge from a B&M and didn't find it to be notable that day - will remember to put a few away for awhile.

Also thinking about comparing the RP OSG against the RP Sun Grown.

How does the Olde World differ from the Edge? Thanks!:pp
In my opinion the Edge is pretty much a one trick chocolate coffee pony, where the OWR is a pretty complex smoke. The Sungrown is decent but the OWR line is pretty much the only really serious line that RP has in my opinion.
 
Man, im fired from polls. :mn

I totally forgot the Sungrown. I kept feeling like I was leaving one out. Sorry Sungrown fans.

Woogie


You know these are my favorites, I can agree with some of you that not all of them are top notch sticks but it is hard to have a bad RP especially when you take into account the fact that some are mild, med, etc...

My favorite by far is the '92 with the ITC and Old World close behind.

That reminds me, I gotta go smoke one now.
 
Smoke alot of sun grown and vintage..I think he needs to stop expanding the line right now. Too many flavors and the original smokes might start to suffer.....hope not .

Could be, it really depends on his infrastructure. In business the limiting factor normally becomes good people, as you grow you have the resources to do the service or make the widget but quality control almost always suffers.

Does someone have a definative list of everything he is related to - I tried an ITC (I think thats what it was called) by RP, very similiar to the Conneticut but a bit more spicey.
 
I have smoked three different RP's. One was terrible and the other two were ok at best.
1999 Conn. Churchill-YUCK
1990-ok
1992-ok
