Quick Time: Rocky Patel Sungrown Toro

Nothing like a cigar on a sunny Sunday afternoon.  Today I decided to pick out something that I normally don’t smoke.  I’m not on the Rocky Patel bandwagon, so it’s rare for me to reach for one, but today I figured why the hell not.  I pulled out the RP Sungrown Toro and inspected it.  It was a good looking cigar.  Feeling it I could tell that it was well made and the smooth burn throughout the smoke confirmed this for me.  It also produced a great amount of smoke.  Starting out with some extreme spice, it settled into a medium body strength full of wood and leather.  The sungrown Ecuadorian Sumatra gives it good consistent flavoring over the Nicaraguan binder and filler.  This is a straight forward cigar; not complex in the least.  I’d have to say that I don’t think these live up to they hype that many others do, but it’s a good consistent, yet average, cigar.
