    Default Rocky Patel

    Rockey Patel Vintage 1990

    Excellent smoke and construction! Nice dark wrapper. Very tight roll even during the last few puffs! Still easy to draw through. Highly recommend!

    91

    I like these cigars as well. I did a review on another site and I think I also gave them a "91"

    I like the 1990s more than the 1992s.

    Well, your tobacconist and I agree on which Rocky Patels taste better!! I honestly can't remember exactly WHY I like the 1990's better but I think I found the wrappers on the 1990's to be a little "sweeter" which is a quality I enjoy.

    The 1990's have a Honduran broadleaf wrapper while the 1992's have a Ecuadoran Sumatra wrapper.

    Someone posted on another cigar board that they had tried the Rocky Patel 1990 "2nds" and he thought they were GREAT!!

    For a domestic cigar the regular Rocky Patels are a little pricey but you can get a bundle of 15 Rocky Patel 1990 Robusto 2nds for $39.95 from CigarsInternational.

    I'm going to take a chance on those in the near future

    When ever I get them, I'll shoot you a PM to see if you might be interested in trying a couple.

    I really enjoy a 92 petite corona during my lunch hour on occasion. I do have to agree that in the larger gauges the 90's are a bit sweeter.

    Even though I have never smoked a 92 I ordered a box. Should be here any day now. Can't wait
