RP Fusion

[jakeemtrn]

I had my first RP Fusion. I found it to be very difficult draw. I ended up pulling more than I found enjoyable. Have you guys found the same?

I bought a bunch of them a while back. Haven't had that happen yet. I bought a bundle of 2nd's recently, they've all been excellent.

You got a rare dud.

I always punch mine, maybe that could be why.

hmmm I would think punching would produce a flat cigar...... JK

 

[amgracing]

punching would not produce as much smoke, not enough to effect it.. but it would have no bearing on the consistancy of the draw. dont fret you just got a tight stogie, try another and you should be good

I have half a box left and they have been good.

All of mine have been great--which size did you smoke? I've found the lancero to be a nearly effortless draw, and the toro nearly as good. It's a great stick, imo. Pretty unique to my tastes anyway--tastes like cashews.

 

[jmatkins]

I think I have the robusto.

I have a half box of the torpedos left and I have never had a problem with them. I think you might have just had a bad stick.

I had a Fusion which performed up to expectations, similar to Decade, but Decade is better...
Decade is Decade, like Power is Power. If you want a creamy smooth rich smoke, take any good medium to full bodied selection and age it 9 or 10 years. Then they'll taste like Felipe's Power, but richer.
Patience is a virtue, but who's got Patience nowadays? Me.
