My First Rocky Patel

[Gophernut]

Gophernut:

yeah, just my experience with a 5er in the toros. 2 were blah, 2 bitter and 1 was pretty ok.

I guess that is why there is more than 1 cigar company out there making more than 1 cigar! I have never had the toro so I can't comment on that one. IMHO, the Torpedos were the best of the bunch. ROTT the robustos were a little bitter but about a month of resting they came around nicely, but not as good still as the Torps.:tu

I've tried the Fusion, but not the MM. I didn't really care for the Fusion (and I tend to like RP in general). I thought I could taste both the '90 and '92 (both of which I like while preferrring the '92), but thought in this case the total was less than the sum of its parts.

I agree with orca, try the Edge. I probably wouldn't try pounding one down before breakfast but IMHO it's not THAT strong. Probably one of my favorites at that price point, being a fairly frugal fellow.
