Rocky Patel Sixty. Celebratory smoke for my new job. Thankfully, I didn't have to wait long to spark it.
Bought this at the beginning of the summer when my government contract ended. Cigar Aficionado rated it 96 points and ranked it the No. 2 Cigar of the Year for 2022. Meant for celebrations. Rocky Patel created the blend to celebrate his 60th birthday. Worthy of the near $25 price tag.
Came highly recommended. Told it was like a stick of Mexican hot chocolate. Pretty accurate pre-light.
Spicy and sweet to start. Like a spicy mocha. Can feel black pepper tickle the throat. Spice lingered throughout. Got creamier in the middle before picking up cedar and wood notes near the end.
Really lingers. Bold flavors of pepper, earth, coffee, chocolate, and leather are what I'll remember.
Puffed on it for an hour and 15 or so. No issues with the draw or burn. Outstanding smoke.
