Amen brother. That thing ain't the Sumatra. I am bummed I'm all out of them too. That was a fine smoke no matter what Soulpuppy says!
As for the 90's and 92's I think the blend has changed. I am not liking them at all lately.
I had a box press Churchill in the humi with about 3 years of age and I recently smoked it. I thought it was great. Nothing like the ones on the shelf now.
I think he has too much out there as well.
I met him a while back and he was the one that turned me on th the Sumatras.
That bastige got me hooked on a line that had been discontinued. Argh!!!!

I like some of Rocky's offerings, but rarely buy them anymore. He's just too damn inconsistent, when similarly priced lines taste better to me anyway and are generally bang-on every time. Loved the Edge when it came out, then it was crap for awhile when he substituted for part of the blend, then it got better again but never quite as good. Same thing with the Sungrowns, one of my favorites by him---one shipment will be blah, the next will be freakin' fantastic. And you never know for sure which it'll be.
Plus, he went viral with the rumor that the Renaissance was the Edge Sumatra in new sizes and packaging, and NO IT AIN'T!
