Tried to enjoy a Casa Magna Colorado Robusto earlier tonight but I think I got a bad stick. It only stayed lit partly on one side and ended up "canoeing" almost the entire way on the other side. Plus the draw was insanely tight even though I had cut it perfectly with my new Xikar xi1 that I got yesterday. Just had to say again that I love that cutter so far!!!

Anywho back to the stick, I'm wondering if it had major plugging issues? Damn thing gave me a headache from me puffing and trying to keep it lit/help it burn evenly. Bah...

Had one of these today. Was my first Rocky Patel and I thought it was pretty good even though I'm still trying to figure out retro-haling every few puffs. Still I found it quite enjoyable despite mouth exhaling most of it and I'd buy them again.

I assume the one I had (like in the photo) was a Robusto correct? As I'm still trying to learn and memorize my stogie sizes and shapes lol.

It would be difficult to tell just from the picture if it was a Robusto or not. They're normally about 5"x50, but that can vary a little by manufacturer.

Just smoked a 10 year old-ish DPG Blue Invictos. It was pretty dang good. I like seeing that yellow cello.

These were one of my favorites back in the day when they used to have red bands. But alas, my palate has changed and I haven't had one in probably 8 years.

Still in production Pete. The "Red" banded RP's are the Vintage 1990, and the "Black" banded RP's are the Vintage 1992:
