Thanks for the update scott, I’ve been thinking about revisiting these in a video weekend update. I still have one left over from the ones I bought earlier this year. I’m interested to see how they are after an 8 month rest.

I scored some in a sampler pack and they had a very dark wrapper and seemed very firmly rolled, almost wooden. I got all pepper on the prelight, and pepper all the way through the burn, with coffee and a little cocoa underneath. The pepper was subdued a little about 1/2 way in, but came back strong. Not my favorite RP, but not bad at all (no ammonia by the way, but maybe these where produced a little later in the run)

So I just scored a box of the torpedos for $82. Looked like a nice investment to save for later. I wasn’t wowed with my first Rocky 92, but after solid redemption with the Olde World reserve (REALLY freakin’ good) I thought I’d take another look at some of the other RP offerings.

I tried one at a herf last weekend and had to dump it after about 4-5 minutes. Pathetic smoke hyped way too much.

Got a box of these the other day while waiting for my back-ordered Oliva Series Vs. The first cigar was disappointing — some odd taste that I couldnt’ describe. Maybe a bouquet of comet. It was nasty. I smoked it about a half-an-inch and then put it out of its misery. The second one was just as bad. Same fate. I can’t comment on the burn, since I didn’t let it live that long. The draw felt very tight — too tight for me. I just ran over to the cigar shop to get some other cigars to keep me going. As it is, these are a major rip off and I don’t know what I’m going to do with them. Bummer.

I found this while searching for something else and just so happened to have finished 2 RP Fusion MMs. The box of torpedos I received were much much darker than those pictured. A dark dark chocolate. The first one I smoked hit me kind of hard. I wasn’t prepared for that…they weren’t rumored to be that full and I’m a seasoned cigar smoker. So I couldn’t say whether it was the cigar, the Knob Creek, the empty stomach or maybe I was just light headed anyway. Stil a great smoke though. The second one I lit 2 days later (after I ate a light snack) and really enjoyed it. lots of flavor even burn, and a fair amount of complexity. Flavor profile changed at least 3 times maybe more.
I’m looking forward to what the last stick will be like in several months.
