There is NO WAY this can be rated higher than the Olde World Reserve. I agree with most of the ratings, but this one is way off. Thiscigar is average at best. Its mostly power with not enough flavor to back it up. The Olde World Reserve is his gem and they do not let you down. Smoke another Patel Bros. and the smoke and Olde world , then re-think the ratings

Rocky Patel continues to produce great cigars! This is one of my favorite RP to date, right up with the edge and the 1961. On the mild side, the 1999 Connecticut is hard to beat. Rocky is also a damn nice guy!

Joe….this smoke definitely reminds me of the Winter. Wasn’t as spicy in the beginning of this smoke, which I prefer. But I really enjoyed that PA leaf. The new Liga T52 also has a PA leaf and I expect to see more of this leaf in future releases by other companies. I wouldn’t be surprised if a future Pete Johnson release also sports this wrapper.

Isn’t this cigar the same blend as the Rocky Winter blend that came out last year? I think Nish told me this at an event I met him at….except he said it had a bit more ligero. Does it remind you of that smoke?

Thanks for the review. Look forward to picking up a few of these soon, probably letting most of them age for a few months.

I hope to see a review of the 1961 here soon.
