Super Legero, Prohibition (both the Mexican and the Broadleaf), and I've been told the new sun grown is good.

The problem with RP is they make so much shit in a year and flood the market with sub par cigars with bad QC.

In general I stick to this line thought.  RP is too inconsistant.

You should really try the prohibition.  I've had one dud out of the 20 or so I've smoked and they're really good.

Another vote for super ligero. Other than that, there's just too much out there with the RP name to keep tabs.

The best two I've tried and would happily buy again:

Royale

15th Anniversary

This here plus I'll throw in the Decade and Prohibition (Mexico) line. I'm not a huge fan of RP as he has too many mediocre lines with some QC issues. The Old World Reserve used to be a favorite stick of mine before he went and changed the blend slightly, same goes for the Edge. RP is very, very close to Gurkha for me. There are far better cigars for the same, even less, money.

He's a big supporter of the Dem's so that sours me on his mediocre cigars. I've had some that I thought were decent but there's way too much inconsistency.

I haven't smoked RPs newer stuff, but I was always a fan of:

Vintage 90, 92, and 99
Old World Reserve corojo
15th anniversary
Decade
Edge corojo
Edge light

That being said they are good cigars but generally overpriced.

+1 for the 15th anniversary

Decade............................. and Freedom.
I say Freedom with a long pause, because I have smoked 3, 2 of the 3 have had construction issues so yeah.


 

They were decent smokes just didnt stay together after the cut and burn.

Edge, Edge Corojo and I have been pretty pleased with the Cuban Blend maduro but it does need some age on it, about 6 months +....

This is probably the best said thing in the entire thread.

Have you smoked the prohibition?  The Mexican is pretty good.

Edit:  I'm just like you I don't think RP makes good cigars, but just like gurhka they make enough cigars and and hope something sticks.

Wow such hate for RP, I've never had a cigar from them I didn't like. But then again I'm somewhat new to cigars.

Well the rest of you can sit around hating I still haven't had anything bad from them and I even order their vintage seconds from them.
