Rocky Patel · Non-CubanVintage 1990

In the “cigar community” (is it me or is there a “community” for everything these days?), Rocky Patel’s Vintage Series of cigars have been blazing hot. For good reason. This Vintage ’90 blend is nothing short of masterful: complex and smooth, with layer after layer of deep box-pressed flavor. With these beauties, the wrapper tobacco is the key ingredient. In fact these wrappers are incredible. Let me explain: Vintage 1990 is a blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan Ligero draped in a tantalizing natural Broadleaf wrapper from Honduras. It’s medium-bodied and box-pressed with a really enjoyable, complex smooth-rich flavor.
