What happened to the Temple Hall and Royal Jamaica cigar companies? Royal Jamaica used to be one of my favorite cigars many years ago...

BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
Jamaican Cigars: What Happened to Temple Hall and Royal Jamaica?
- Thread starter K Williams
- Start date
I've often wondered about Royal Jamaica myself. I gave an old boss a sampler pack years ago with a RJ (the one with the tissue paper around it) in it and flipped out after he smoked - he called the place I bought it from and ordered 3 boxes. The last I heard one of the big names purchased them when they went bellyup about a decade ago. I haven't really seen them since, but once or twice and they aren't the same.
The other one I miss is V Centennial. That was a good smoke that was around for years and couldn't survive the cigar bust in the 1990's.

that's memory too. A lot of companies when under during the cigar craze boom and many rushed product during the craze so their quality went down hill. Romeo & Julieta used to be one of my favorites from the 70's to early 90's but they haven't been the same since the craze.
