This has always puzzled me. the RP 90 and 92 get all this rave press and phenomenal reviews. I've tried both and admittedly, they are very nice cigars.
But neither holds a candle to the RP Sungrown which is not only better but also significantly CHEAPER! The 90 and 92 (IMHO) are nice, rich stogies. The Sungrown is not only tasty, but embodies that creamy flavo(u)r that makes you want to keep smoking the cigar until it burns your lips.

Never tried the Sungrown so can't offer an opinion. I have to say that I only smoke these when I'm in, or have just been to, the US. I guess I smoke them for about 1 month a year!
Looks like I'll have to try the Sungrown next year!

Today was a Don Tomas Rothschild (4.5"x50) from Honduras. I got a box of 10 just over two years ago now and this one leaves me with only two left now. They have aged very well and are a really smooth cigar. Light coloured wrapper and lots of thick smoke with an almost perfect even burn the whole way down.
Will be a shame to see the last two go.

A Cohiba robusto in the sunshine outside Nude Espresso in Spittlefields with a flat white.
Nice draw, easy smoke and plenty of it. Missing the creamy wonder hit I got from the Siglo IV the other week, will try another IV to see if i will bother with the robusto again. This example was not as good as recent D4's and RASS's.
A Monte No.2 gifted me from Gary sat in the sunshine at a local pub this afternoon, quickly followed by a Excalibur 1066 Rothschild, all washed down with a few glasses of the house red - lovely...

What is the local pub? I am always looking out for a good garden or smoking area in our locale. If it is a secret local - no problem keep it to yourself.

Hi Paul
No worries, it was the Coach & Horses which is in a little village called Sutton Scotney, about 3 miles from where I live.
Nice 'country' orientated food and drink to be enjoyed and like I said a good spacious garden where one can enjoy a fine Havana...
I'm currently sat in my garden enjoying a Oliva Serie O Torpedo. Very easy going, smooth draw, and faultless burn. Light hints of a long black coffee and dark chocolate. Certainly not overpowering for a newbie like myself.
Warning: Smoking cigars may cause a slow and delicious death.
