Rocky Patel cigars begin with a process of meticulously grouping and regrouping tobaccos to achieve a quality blend worthy of the Rocky Patel name. Occasionally, one of the tobacco groups has such great taste and texture that it grabs the cigarmakers' attention. That is just what happened when Patel and his team tested tobacco group Number 6. Rich and smooth, the Rocky Patel Number 6 has gone on to captivate the rest of the cigar world with such beauties as the 90-rated Number 6 Robusto.
The Number 6 Robusto is a handsome 5 ½" x 50 stick handcrafted at Rocky Patel's El Paraiso cigar factory in Honduras. The filler blend is an intriguing mix of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos, held together by a Honduran binder and a sumptuous Honduran Corojo wrapper leaf.
The Number 6 Robusto smacks of delectable pepper, leather, cedar, and oak notes, with a pinch of cinnamon spice and cream flavors also in the mix. The smoke is a delightful medium-bodied experience until the final push towards a subtly sweet, impressively balanced finale.
The Rocky Patel Number 6 Robusto is a fantastic award-winner that delivers impressive body and flavor that is never overbearing. The surprisingly versatile smoke is ready to please anytime or place, making it a great food and drink pairing option.
