601 Blue Question

01-20-2011, 02:01 PM

Rocky Patel has nothing at all to do with the bland of the EO Brands 601 cigars!! They are still being made by Pepin and the same blend. Only thing Rocky has to do with them is distribute them. I do know Eddie Ortega as a friend and have talked to him more then once about this.

Straight from Rocky's mouth. The red has been changed.

If you listen to the video he says the 601 Blue will not change and the 601 Red "probably will be changed". Not that it has or that it will be. He also states that they are made by Don Pepin, which means Rocky is not blending any EO Brands premium cigars. My understanding from Eddie Ortega is that the Red has not been changed.

Eddie isn't definitive here either, but he says he wants to change the red. Being who he is, I assume he got or will get what he wants. I agree Rocky is not blending - I had a brain fart when I typed that.

Yeah, plus those videos are old now. Bad thing about youtube is some stuff that should be updated or removed is still there. Guess Eddie had a change of heart because he just told me the blend has not changed.

I agree. I think that video must be removed now, since it is not updated because many may also be confuse when they watch that video. If i haven't only read this whole thread I would also be confused on that video.

Ding ding ding...we have a winner!!! Tell 'em what he's won Bob.

I can only speak of the 601 Blue. This wonderful stick remains the same...except for the band. I LOVE these and have smoked plenty of the old bands, as well as the new bands. SAME WONDERFUL FLAVOR!!!
