Rocky Patel Vintage 12 Yrs 1990
$114.75 – $239.40No one disputes that Rocky Patel is one of the few Titans of the Premium Cigar Industry. Over 20 years ago as he began his quest to get a foothold in the marketplace he actually got in his car and traveled the country visiting high volume Tobacconists unannounced! When he wound up in my store to sell his first entry , I hesitantly took a chance on him. Actually, he was such a nice and appreciative person I couldn’t resist! The rest is cigar history!
If you’ve read my posts you know I’m bullish on aging your cigars to enhance their taste. This 93 rated beauty is a rich, medium bodied cigar that remains consistent down to the end.
Origin – Honduras
Filler – Dominican-Nicaraguan

Oliva Serie O
$80.89 – $182.01This great brand traces its roots back to 1886 when Melanio Oliva began growing tobacco in Cuba. After the revolution, his grandson Gilberto went to Spain and then settled in Nicaragua. In 1995 Gilberto and his son Gilberto Jr. launched the company.
When Series O appeared in 2008 it was highly rated and remains so all these years later. This top-selling medium-bodied “go to” stick is well made with a smooth draw. It’s really well balanced with a nice bit of sweetness and spice while not being overpowering.
Origin – Nicaragua
Filler – Nicaraguan
Binder – Nicaraguan Habano

The big difference is the very dark 10 year old Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper giving this medium bodied stick a thick smoke that draws and burns perfectly.
