Quick Time – Rocky Patel 1992 Vintage Robusto

Alright folks, it’s been awhile myself and so here’s a quick review brought to you by our sponsor Cigars Direct. If you’ve never checked them out, I urge you to do so, because they have some high end cigars that a lot of other retailers can’t keep on hand.

Okay, so I’ve smoked these before and was never impressed so when Billy sent me these I was a little less than enthusiastic, but a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do, right?  For this review I smoked two samples and here’s what I got:  The wrapper has a coffee smell that is quite pleasant.  Looking at the cigar it looks well rolled.  The draw was a little loose on both sticks, which isn’t a problem for me.  It all started to go downhill from there.  The taste was bitter and tannic from beginning to end on both of these.  About a quarter of the way through the wrappers started to unravel on me.  I’ve had this happen before on these and I’m not sure if it’s just a delicate wrapper or what.  I double checked my humidor to make sure that the storage conditions were good, and they were, so I don’t know what the story is.  Long story short, these cigars are not my thing.  I do know, however, that they’re quite popular, so if it’s your thing, check out Cigars Direct to pick some up.

And don’t forget about the free cigar giveaway in celebration of our 1-year anniversary.  Click here to see details!
