Good easy draw with a smooth burn and a rather mild flavour to them, I prefer something stronger but this was nonetheless a pleasant smoke.

I have been sampling quite a few different cigars recently and this was my first Rocky Patel cigar.
I have to say this has been my favourite up to now.
Taking it from the cellophane, the construction was very nice.
The flavour was a little sweet but with lovely thick smoke. The draw was perfect.
I will be ordering more of these for sure!!!

This is my first cigar review, i received this as a fathers day present, i decided to take it when i went to York horse races. Good draw, good burn and delicious smoke! , i wish i had taken 2! i will defintaly put it on next years fathers day present list, and xmas list and my birthday list and any other chance i can get people to buy me one! Im a newbie to smoking cigars but this is the best ive tried yet by a long long way.

Had one of these last week, was a good proper Cuban but lacked a bit of punch. Had a good solid draw until I hit the last 2 inches when the draw became tight, would usually enjoy the last bit of a cigar the best but really didn't with this one. Have two more of them to try so hopefully I just got a bad one.

I received one of these as a gift and was pretty disappointed.
I was keen to try some non-Cubans and this seemed to fit the bill.
Construction was pretty average with a fairly loose draw. Flavour was okay, a bit bland but not offensive. It took a lot of maintenance to keep it going with re-lighting required if you did not keep drawing very quickly.
In summary, a distinctly below average smoke which I would not purchase again.

Though a relative noob, I've tried my fair share of both Cuban & non-Cuban offerings and I have to say this is right up there with the nicest I have had.
The construction is first class - on a par with a more expensive Cuban and the wrapper adds to the classy, expensive feel (if that's your thing). As per the description the taste is quite spicy, but never over-powering, leaving a lasting finish.
As others have already said it is difficult to put this cigar down and I too continued to smoke well after the band, so tasty is this cigar!
Overall a very good cigar that I would heartily recommend. Will definitely to trying more Rocky Patel's in the future, though more likely it will be a box of 10 of these...
