OK I smoked a RP OWR today, it was good. I have a questoin about the wrapper. it seemed to be paper thin, and I have noticed this on some of RP cigars(1990's & 1992"). So do they use more thinner wrappers on some of there lines or am I just getting some thinner wrappers by chance. Or lastly am I storring the wrong making the wrapper look that way.


Thanks,

I haven't been a Rocky guy in a couple of years, but from what I remember, they're pretty thin. I thought the OWR were thicker than their Vintage line, though.

The OWR wrappers I've had were on the thin side for corojos, but I didn't think they are too thin. The maduro wrappers are quite thick.

I have had the fusion wrapper crack on cold days. But the good thing about that is there is two wrapper's on that stick.

From CI: on the Fusion: It’s got 2 wrappers: a lovely, chestnut-hued, oily Habano wrapper on the outside, concealing a flawless Connecticut leaf underneath.

I did not know that. I have had several Fusion Lancero's crack on me.
