Rocky Patel Decade

I recently realized I am in love with the Decade... I just love it so much. Its the cigar I compare others too... This and the OWR Maduro... Does anybody share my love for this cigar? And when I say love I mean - I'd rather a Decade than an Opus, Preferido, GoF or whatever! If I definitely want to enjoy a cigar and not expect any surprise I'd take a Decade. I also wanted to say that I recently got a pack of Decades that were a bit lighter in shade than others I have seen/had. This is in connection with a previous thread - I do not think these are different Decades. Just different color... In any case they also had a 3rd band at the foot say "Edicion Especial"... Anybody know of any differences between a "regular" Decade and "edicion especial"?

I'm right there with you, but I have never seen the special edition ones. I just ordered the 40 cigar RP sampler, which came with 10 Decades, AWESOME.

You know, I've tried these things 3 times and though I hear a lot of you praise them, I just cannot get into it. Maybe there is something wrong with me.... =(

Just one more example of finding a cigar everyone will like seems almost impossible. I would love to be that person.

I haven't really enjoyed any of RP's line either, the Sun Grown was decent, but not worth buying again for me. I'm gonna buy a vintage 90 next time i visit my b&m and see if i like it.

I have had a decade 6 x 60 that was very good but a lot of cigar with that gauge! I have 4 toros in the humi right now waiting to light up. The Vintage 90 and OWR Maduro are my favorites right now.

I haven't really found too much from RP that I don't like. Some I like, some I love. Love the vintage 92 and the decade. The vintage 92 may be my favorite. And I really like OWR, fusions, edges, etc. I also really, really liked the spring and summer collections.

I dont like any of the RP brands so far except for the Decade. I thought that was one of the best cigars I have ever had.

I really did not like the Summer blend I had. It had no age on it though so I would be interested in trying one with some age.

I'm with you Ren, the Decade is hands-down my favorite cigar. Like you said, I would rather have a Decade Toro than an Opus, Prefediro, etc. Luckily I just got a smoking deal on a box of these, so I'm good.

Luko

I like the summer 09 very much...mine had probably two or three months on it.

+1 for another Decade lover. I remember on the initial puff I took from the torpedo the first time I tried it, I actually said "wow". In a good way. I haven't tried any of the other vitolas though.

alienmisprint

I can't tell a difference between the edicion especial , regulars, or seconds., I think it is just a foot band they put on for some reason.

phobicsquirrel

probably.

i was trying to find some of these for a little while. turns out all I had to do was call Ccom. I told Jeff I had been looking for them and he said they had some 5 packs so I grabbed a couple. Def. looking forward to these. I had a couple a few months ago and it was one of the best smokes ever! I can't wait!

Hahha - same here! I said WOW and DAMN repeatedly...

I really wish ccom would do some daily deals on OWR or Decades. But if I remember correctly, they aren't allowed to sell decades online, (like the Reniassance). I have a ton of decades atm, but really would like to see some OWR Daily Deals.
