Rocky Patel - Royale - Toro

 
Strength:  medium full
Origins:  Honduras
Wrapper:  Ecuadorean Sumatra
Shape:  box pressed
Length:  6.5"
Ring size:  52
Approx. cost:  $10
Bdawg says:  A medium dark oily wrapper.  The draw is easy producing a grayish ash.  The flavor is terrific, rich, espresso, coffee, dark tobacco.  I consistently have problems with uneven burns on Rocky Patel cigars.  And I on this one as well (deduct half point). A quick touch up solved the problem.


I enjoyed this cigar in Naples Florida at Rocky Patel's Burn Lounge,
accompanied by a delicious frosty Guiness!

























****UPDATE 12/23/14*****
Cigar Aficionado rated this as their #5 cigar of 2014.  I just so happened to smoke this Rocky Patel at the Rocky Patel Burn Lounge in 2014.  How cool!
