Bdawg says:  Rocky Patel cigars, some brands are great, some are just so so.  Platinum is one of the great ones!

The wrapper is gorgeous, dark brown, oily, and well constructed.  The draw is easy producing a grey ash.  The flavor is complex, smooth, espresso, leather, just a note of black pepper.  Rocky Patel is known for burn problems.  Not so with this one. The burn was slow and even.
