Rocky Patel Special-Aged Tubo

These were dubbed Special-Aged because they were rolled and packed as far back as 2016, and have been resting comfortably in Rocky's US humidor until recently. Timing is everything: The company was in the middle of moving to their new location, and we happened to be visiting.  So they agreed to let us take a crack at some gems they had been storing for a few years. Can't believe he let them go, but the impending move motivated him to trim down some SKUs. We ID’d a bunch of these extra aged morsels and bought them all.

Rocky Patel Special-Aged 15th Anniversary Toro Tubos- This 93-rated blend sports a Nicaraguan binder and filler with an oily Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. Incredibly rich with toasty flavors ranging from spice and cocoa to espresso. Complex, yet smooth, and with a touch of sweetness.

Rocky Patel Special-Aged Edge Corojo Toro Tubos- Rocky Patel Edge remains one of the strongest cigars in Rocky's portfolio. If you're looking for intense strength with a premium, creamy finish, look no further. These cigars are packed to the brim with well-aged ligero long leaves, delivering a powerful array of complexity in the form of an earthy core. Add a Corojo wrapper to the mix and the blend exudes tons of spice and pepper with a dry, aromatic finish. If you're more into rich flavors, then the maduro wrapper should treat you well as it offers a bold body with a creamy finish and a touch of sweetness on the exhale. Incredibly smooth due to its well-aged tobaccos, Rocky Patel Edge is strong and vivid, yet nicely rounded.

Rocky Patel Special-Aged Edge Lite Toro Tubos- Incredibly smooth, yet packed with flavor. It sports an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper that conceals a delicious Nicaraguan binder.  The secret blend belnd of fillers inside creates a mild to medium-bodied experiance with notes of earth and cedar throughout.

Rocky Patel Special-Aged Edge Maduro Toro Tubos- Rocky Patel Edge Maduro packs a little more punch then some of its bretheren. The well-aged ligero long leaves, deliver a powerful array of complexity in the form of an earthy core. The maduro wrapper offers a bold body and rich flavors, with a creamy finish and a touch of sweetness on the exhale. Incredibly smooth due to its well-aged tobaccos, Rocky Patel Edge Maduro is bold and complex, yet nicely balanced.  

Rocky Patel Special-Aged Number 6 Toro Tubos- A 95-rated cigar featuring a light brown Corojo wrapper that was grown in Honduras.  Hidden beneith is a Honduran binder and Jalapa and Honduran long-fillers. Rocky Patel Number 6 is a medium-bodied delight. Sweet, rich, and smooth, these are great all-day, any day.

Rocky Patel Special-Aged Sun Grown Deluxe Toro Tubos - There's nothing better than a well-aged cigar. Age creates character. It creates balance. And few can argue they prefer raw tobacco over a well-aged, complex smoke. Rocky Patel understands this concept, which is what makes his Sun Grown blend so delicious. 7-year-aged Brazilian, Dominican, and Nicaraguan tobaccos create ample complexity while remaining smooth. A 5-year-aged Ecuadorian Sun Grown wrapper adds boldness and a peculiar spice which delivers a flavor that enraptures your entire palate. Earthy, full-flavored, and full-bodied with a hint of sweetness to round out the entire experience, Rocky Patel Sun Grown was created for the experienced enthusiast, but can be appreciated by all.

Rocky Patel Special-Aged Decade Toro Tubos - Sporting a rare, dark Sumatra wrapper that's glistening due to its natural, delicious oils (proof of perfect fermention and curing), Decade is by far one of Rocky Patel's finest creations. You can expect an incredibly rich experience as the smoke swirls around your palate, leaving behind a plethora of flavors including notes of espresso mixed with dark chocolate. The finish releases a spicy-sweet sensation with a hint of white pepper that perfectly complements the experience, leaving behind a silky smooth, yet complex flavor well deserving of its '95' rating. Superb.
