Didn't we beat this discussion to death over in the jungle?

LOL, you beat me to it! I would post the thread but dont want to get banned here haha.

And to answer your question - FAN of the man, helping us build up the community, I am all for it though I have my personal feelings about some of the new cigars.

I like the decade and vintage but I never think to buy any because the name has really turned me off. There is one for every day of the year

SOme RP's suck, some are great (Vin 1990, Decade). It's what you like.

Rocky is a friend. Heck, he blends and makes cigars, doesn't he? He goes out and meets the public, his BotL's. He makes cigars at all price points, so whether you're a refined connoisseur or a noob, there's probably something with his name on it in your humi. Honestly, I don't know how anyone could consider him a foe...unless you would like to see cigar smoking banned from the culture.

Good stuff, Gerry. Good points.
I can't see him as anything but a friend. I just keyed on the "friends don't sell friends generic third world suck cigars at inflated prices" point and got stuck there. That kinda stuff really tweaks me off.

I sure think he has good intentions, and I'm glad he's a BOTL.

if I ever get around to cigars again, they're first on the list out of curiousity
