    I love the Decade but really hate the price tag. I think it's a lot like an Olde World Maduro, but a bit richer. I'd love to see how they do with age if i cold stop smoking everyone i get!
    Price tag on the Decade? $5/stick all day long...

    I haven't picked any up for a bit but it shouldn't be hard to find them at that price or at least close to it...

    So, when was the change from the PA Broadleaf to the Sumatra?
  • Russ55Russ55 Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 2,762
    I think it was originally a Sumatra when it first came out, then changed to PA broad-leaf some time in the past few years. No clue what it is now. Only reason I say this is I've got a cotm leaflet from about 2 years ago that says Sumatra. Who knows.

    I thought the recently released decade edition limitada was broadleaf.

    that one is ; description i saw,,;; Rocky Patel Decade Edicion Limitada features the same binder and filler blend as the original Decade. However, the wrapper has been switched to what remains of the Pennsylvania Broadleaf from the Winter Collection 2009. Rocky Patel Decade Edicion Limitada is indeed limited, because only 250 boxes were made. Rocky Patel Decade Edicion Limitada is medium to full bodied in strength with good amount of smoke. It is spicy in flavor with smooth and hints of dark fruit, coffee, and dark chocolate notes.Rocky Patel Decade Edicion Limitada is a nice change of pace from the regular Decade line.

    The torpedo had the 95 rating. IMO the torpedo is def the best vitola in the Decade.
    Agreed.

    The picture looks like the Sumatra wrapper. The PA wrapper is darker when you see it on the decade. Of course it could just be camera or lighting. Who knows.

    I agree, was a sumatra... I am suprised by how much they are asking for this cigar, I didnt remember the cigar being this expensive. I have to admit I am suprised as this cigar was way better than I remember.. As a matter of fact if anyone has any torps that they would like to trade, send me a pm and I'm sure I have something that would be worthwhile. Thanks guys was nice to give this one another look. I think the edge just got edged out..LOL

    BTW, I took a little nap after my smoke and right before I fell asleep I thought of Paprika,, Thats the spice flavor I definately picked up in the last 3rd.

    I love the RP Decade torp. I've tried the other vitolas, and the torp is the best imo. In fact, the Decade is my all time favorite cigar. I don't have the experience as some here, but I had the Decade early on in my cigar smoking experience, and it is still the cigar that I judge all others against. I really like the creaminess of it. I keep several Decade torps on hand at all times. Its my special occasion cigar. Since i've been smoking them, 2 years, they have always been Sumatra wrapped. I really like the sumatra wrapper, which is probably why i like the RP 92 also.

    I really dont like the RP line except for the decade. Easily in my top 5.

    u should try the Edge Sumatra since you might be a fan of the sumatra wrapper...or RP Renaissance
