Rocky Patel 1961: Rocky Patel introduced his 1961 line at the 2009 IPCPR. These cigars are finished with an Ecuadorian Habano seed wrapper, are bound with a Honduran binder leaf, and the fillers are all Nicaraguan. The Rocky Patel 1961 is a medium bodied cigar with complex flavors. Tobacco sweetness, citrus notes, cocoa, and coffee are all there, waiting to be smoked. Named after Rocky Patel's birth year the 1961 is available in Corona, Robusto, Toro, and Torpedo.
This Quick Review Was Courtesy Of Jaime (RPguy), Who Gifted Me This Wonderful Stick Last November. The Stick Is A Toro; 6 1/2 X 52. Nothing Really Striking About The Initial Appearance; Nice Pleasant Tobacco Scent Pre-Light. Initial Light & Burn Were Nice And Even, Revealing A Very Pleasant Spice & Sweetness Throughout The First 1/3. 2nd Third Revealed A Citrus, Leather, & Cocoa Flavor That Persisted Throughout The Remainder Of The Smoke. Draw & Burn Were Perfect Throughout, Even Though I Was Smoking @ 56* In A 15mph wind. Duration Of Smoke: 1.5 Hr. Overall Rating 9/10. I Was Pleasantly Surprised By This New, Medium To Full Bodied Smoke From Rocky. Price $8.50/ Stick Retail You Definitely Need To Try This Bad Boy! ![]() Last edited by longknocker; 01-17-2010 at 12:35 PM. Reason: Retail Price |

Great review Greg,

I smoked the 1961 torp on the way home today that Jamie so graciously gifted me. I gotta say... that is a quality smoke. Very nice flavor, needed zero touch ups, and was so nice and oily!!! Gotta go find some more!!
