Thats awesome man! I loved the Rocky event i went to and he makes it just that....an event. Plus hes and uber cool guy. Did he bring a cigar with him called Maduro of Costa Rica? Near as i can tell that is part of his "travelling stock" and you cant find it anywhere else. Killer stick if you get a chance to smoke it.

That's awesome you got to meet Rocky! I met him too when he was down here in GA for an event. He gave me an autograph and a RP Rennisance box. He is really down to Earth and knows his stuff!

You're right Puro, you didn't see me, lol. We're in the process of extending our hours at work, and I've been putting in extra time. I was just too tired to drive out there. Looks like I should've made the sacrifice though. Glad you had a good time.

PuroFreak

Well sorry you couldn't make it. We did have a great time and got some great freebies. I'll keep you posted on other events coming in the near future. They usually have at least one a month.

Matt Marvel

Sounds good. Speaking of events, there's a shop in Rockwall, right by Lake Ray Hubbard called En Fuego. The first of July they're having an Oliva cigar tasting. I'm thinking about checking it out.

PuroFreak

Oh cool, I went to an Oliva event last month and it was great. Some good give aways and great smokes. I like the Oliva line a lot. The G and O Maduro are great and the Series V is AWESOME!!!

Matt Marvel

I've yet to have one, unfortunately. I might pick some up this weekend though. Depends on what I have left over after bills.

PuroFreak

Yea, I know that feeling. I was lucky that the Patel event was right after pay day and I actually had some good over-time on this check so I wasn't totally poor. haha

He said he is going to do a tour of TX with a bunch of the other guys from the CRA and be making a ton of stops so keep an eye out! You might check his site and see if they have any dates up yet.

cool. he does look tired. I think it would be cool to hang with some owners. I think it's pretty stand up to do what he and other growers do, hang with their customers. glad you had a good time puro

From what I was told all you have to pay is air fair and everything else is covered.

Is there a listing anywhere of his and/or other events around the country? He was just here and I didn't know about it until it was too late.

Krieg

He had a calendar on his website with all his events listed, but last time I checked the calendar page wasn't working...but maybe it's fixed now.

kaelaria

Yeah I saw that but it's always been blank for me.
