Hello:

I thought I would let everyone here know that my local shop (Burning Leaf) had a Rocky Patel sales rep in store yesterda (Sat), and so my buddy and I stopped by to check it out. They had special offers and speical pricing, complimentary drinks and food. What an event. It seemed very well attended and I picked up a few sticks for myself of course, and am very much looking forward to the upcoming holiday weekend.

So far I only smoked the Vintage 90 and had a bit of an uneven burn (see other post), but I'm hoping that was a one time thing since the 92 I had on father's day was great.

I love shop events!

Glad you enjoyed it. My local shop hasnt had a Rocky Patel event yet. I guess my local Rocky Patel guy doesnt care about me. :cry:
 
id love to get a RP event here also. The vintage 92 is one of my favorite cigars right now. Plus events are just fun to go to.
 
Bingo, is that the huge smokeshop in algonquin? I was just at this place and the sign outside said that they had a Patel Rep in on saturday for a tasting. The name of the place escapes me now so I was curious as to whether that was the place.
 
Local shop event

The shop was the Burning Leaf in Plainfield. I know they have other locations, but I don't think Algonquin is one of them.
