  • RP I-Press

    Ok since they have a special going, I was wondering what people thought of this smoke. I have had both of the Vintages and the Edge, the 92 is great. So how does this one stack up compared to those. Any advice...

    Personally I think it blows everything else out of the water, but then I'm a big Rocky fan...the only thing that I don't like is the way its boxed pressed...and I'm so looking foward to the Decade when it comes out...hurry up Cigar.com when it comes in my order will be in too

    I really enjoy most of the Patel cigars, but have no interest in trying this one. If one comes my way through a sampler of fellow smoker I will try it but probably won't pick one up on my own..

    The Decade is an AWESOME smoke!!! I found some at my local shop and I was VERY impressed! I agree totally that once ccom gets them in I'm gonna be placing my order!!!

    Has anyone actually smoked this yet? I keep looking at it thinking it has to have a tight draw.

    Somebody put up a review on this recently.. they said it was excellent, although I seem to remember them saying that the shape was annoying.

    Hell, I started the post and almost forgot about it. I'm about to buy the Friday special and I saw this thread. So I think I may grab both deals...most will just sit in my humi while I am back in Iraq. I will need to start a couple of Tuppadors so my wife can put them in there when I make orders. Although I explained a tuppador to her, she thinks its trashy and 'redneck' and would rather buy me a new humi. I had to explain that I would rather spend the money on smokes, she still didn't get it. Oh well, atleast she doesnt mind me smoking stogies.

    I've smoked the Ipress and bragged about it here, and the shape is strange to say the least the pull on the cigar is really good, I just use my cutters and cut and smoke..

    I bought 10 during a special and while they are good cigars, they are a little too pricy.

    I love the Vintage 1990. The I Press is in the same vein.

    Aging them a month or two doesn't really change the character or mellow them at all...they are good right out of the cello.

    But until the price comes down a little, I won't be purchasing anymore.

    most cigars wont change that much in a month IMHO.

    Well, I just ordered 3 along with the Friday special and a box of Oliva G Cams. I will smoke 1 of the RPs when I get them but the rest will sit in the humi for atleast 6 months with most of the Camachos and Olivas. Some will come with me back to Iraq. So they should get some decent time on them while I am gone.

    This being my 3rd order with ccom, I was wondering how it works when part of the order is 'on order'. Will they send the stuff they have in stock or wait till they have it all to send it? My last order hasn't shipped yet and most of it wasn't in stck at the time. I emailed them but haven't got a reply yet so I am wondering what y'alls experiance has been. Thanks.

    I haven't had that situation with an order, Andy, but more generally my experience has been that ccom is very customer service oriented. If you don't get a reply to your email pretty soon, call them up.
