Rocky Patel has the distinction of being one of the few cigar brands to survive the “cigar boom” of the 1990s. Not only did he survive, he has thrived and brought his brands to be some of the best selling cigars in the industry. If you’ve been around the cigar world for a while, there is little doubt that you have smoked one of his cigars at some point. He built his brand by following his passion and putting in the effort to build a following. He often logs more than 300 days on the road every year between visiting factories and spending quality time in cigar stores throughout the world. Rocky strives to win over new customers to his brands by interacting directly with them and sharing his enthusiasm for premium cigars and his range of premium cigars. He’s been doing it this way for over 25 years! One thing is for sure, Rocky Patel isn’t one to rest on his laurels. He is constantly learning and innovating. Working with the finest tobacco growers and cigar blenders, Rocky regularly introduces 3-5 new blends every year. Each one is unique and he’s happy to spend the time to let you know why each one is special.
Like many cigar companies, Rocky Patel loves to create a cigar for a celebration. Anniversaries, birthdays, and more, if there is a reason to celebrate, a cigar maker will create a cigar for the occasion. In this case, to celebrate his own 60th birthday, Rocky Patel set out to create the finest blend he had ever released. The Rocky Patel Sixty uses a blend of aged Nicaraguan filler and binder tobacco along with a Mexican San Andrés wrapper. Once these cigars are rolled, they are rested in cedar aging rooms for no less than 2 years to ensure perfect balance and combustion as soon as they land in the hands of consumers. Tasting notes include flavors of earth, pepper, and cocoa with hints of caramel, vanilla, espresso, and cedar. Rocky Patel Sixty is one of the most complex and well balanced cigars he has ever introduced. This blend may have you rethinking your opinion (for the better) of what Rocky Patel cigars are all about!
