Edge Sumatra coming back

So, i know a bunch of guys around here are Edge Sumatra fans and were bummed when it was pulled.

Looks like it's coming back but in a limited release of 2000 trays of 50. Just posting in case anyone was interested. Never had it, so I'm impartial.

    I am still going to get a couple of these because I'm curious, and compare them, and see how they differ from the Renn, I wish I had some of the Original Edge Sumatras too, but oh well.

    I bought 5 from an event with Rocky there over the weekend. Smoked one so far. Pretty similar, but a little more spicy that the original which I didnt see much spice in. I would not say it was the same as the original, but good in its own right----even though I hate the lies as well with this stick. BTW, I also got a 15th Anniversary Patel that I have not smoked yet but looks to be amazing and goes into full release on August 1st.

    I am looking forward to the 15th Anniv. I really like the Decade Torp, so I'm hoping I'll like this one too.

    Smoking it now Krieg....Rocky told me it was "like the Decade on steriods" and he is actually right on. Same great flavors, but even more bold and complex. Full bodied, but smooth as hell. Slight sweetness to go with what seems to be a little pepper, spice, and oak. I am p!ssed I only bought one that night, but they are gonna be a keeper.

    Good to hear! I will probably try to find some of these in Aug. I just hope my local B&M is going to get them soon, cuz if I like them enough I will probably get a box
