My first Rocky Patel cigar, bought to try after the guys had on the first episode of the podcast, and wow what a great smoke. Very well made and a delicious flavour, and amazing price! Will definitely be stocking up on a few of these for the humidor.

I had the pleasure of smoking my first Rocky Patel Orchant Seleccion Petit Robusto yesterday during my latest visit to St James's (02/05/24'). To my taste, this is an excellent cigar that burns beautifully, produces lovely white smoke and offers a smooth and pleasurable smoke. The tie up with Rocky Patel is an absolute yes for me being a huge fan of his cigars and the Orchant Seleccion range. I would class this as a perfect 'go to' cigar earlier in the day with a nice double expresso - its production thanks to Mitchell Orchant's amazing palate has produced a fine balance of flavour with the blending of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobacco . Lighter than I would normally smoke, this lovely cigar did not disappoint - I left with a box of 10 and now I'm just waiting for the sun to come out! :)

Not overly impressed with these . Definitely far from a masterpiece. A acceptable smoke. I would say they were pretty much identical to the Orchant Mitchelero but with a bit more pepper. I very much doubt Rocky Patel would smoke these. The Mitchelero is much better value at half the price of these.

Lasts a good 15-20 minutes. Easy draw and for my taste the best Puritos currently available. Lovely flavours as you move between the first and second half with no bitterness.

Rocky Patel Number 6 Toro Cigar - 1 Single
by Jonathan
One of my favourite range of cigars and again this one did not disappoint. Amazing flavours, and nice spicy and pepper notes towards the end. A really nice draw and perfect burn throughout the smoke. I got well over an hour out of this and will be stocking up with a few more of these for the summer.

The good news for me was that this picked up distinctly in the last 3rd. It began to develop some pleasant flavours just in time to finish.
The first 3rd was band, the middle only marginally better.
While the last 3rd was a saving grace, it won't have me running to pick up another one.
