No one disputes that Rocky Patel is one of the few Titans of the Premium Cigar Industry. Over 20 years ago as he began his quest to get a foothold in the marketplace he actually got in his car and traveled the country visiting high volume Tobacconists unannounced! When he wound up in my store to sell his first entry , I hesitantly took a chance on him. Actually, he was such a nice and appreciative person I couldn’t resist! The rest is cigar history!
If you’ve read my posts you know I’m bullish on aging your cigars to enhance their taste. This beauty is encased with a 7 year old Connecticut leaf that tames the Nicaraguan and Dominican filler and binder into a super smooth and mellow smoke. Although it’s definitely a mild to medium bodied smoke, it’s so well rounded and balanced.

Cigar legend Rocky Patel initially created Edge to offer a robust full bodied flavorful smoke with a Cuban punch.

Rocky Patel Java Maduro is one of the four sharply box pressed editions of this hugely popular line of premium cigars. What our headline doesn’t state about the great Java Brand is that this cigar was a joint collaboration between Rocky Patel and Jonathan Drew of Drew Estate fame! These two masters created a brand that is still going strong after 16 years!
Don’t let the dark, oily Maduro wrapper scare you! This Java style’s long fillers have been slightly infused with Espresso and Cocoa beans offering you the classic smooth Java medium bodied signature taste combined with a chocolatey coffee twist! A perfect match with any after dinner drink!
If you are a fan of Rocky Patel and Drew Estate, this Java is a must try! Any size you choose is a top pick!

It hard to believe The Edge is over 15 years old. This massively popular edition has been pleasing so many smokers so consistently for so long. If you haven’t tried one, please check them out on our site. When the brand celebrated its 10th birthday, Rocky decided to do something entirely different to celebrate. Most twin wrapper sticks don’t stand up to their appearance when it comes to content and character. The medium bodied A-10 achieves both. It took a lot of thought blending this stick. The crispy, light tasting taste changes to a spicy, cedary flavor about mid way. As you move along, all of this intensifies. Very unique smoking experience. Enjoy!

This great brand traces its roots back to 1886 when Melanio Oliva began growing tobacco in Cuba. After the revolution, his grandson Gilberto went to Spain and then settled in Nicaragua. In 1995 Gilberto and his son Gilberto Jr. launched the company.
If you’re a fan of Oliva cigars, you’ll agree that this company delivers what you pay for. While their super premiums are priced fairly considering the great sticks they are…….they ain’t cheap! When the Flor De Oliva bundles of value-priced premiums were launched, the company made it very clear that everyone can now enjoy their brand every day for around $3 each! Even those folks that smoked long cigars with big ring sizes.
This Gold edition is a mild to mellow bodied cigar.

Macanudo Cru Royale is not your Dad’s Macanudo for sure! This four country blend produces a solid medium bodied smoke that’s smooth and consistent. For the record, Cru Royale is far stronger than Macanudo Café. It’s also hard to believe this complexly blended cigar is more than 10 years old.
Cigar Aficionado bestowed this edition with a score of 91 and named it one of their top 25 cigars of the year. Their reason for such accolades was well said. ” This cigar draws and burns beautifully delivering leathery, nutty flavors, and a richness that isn’t ordinarily associated with the Macanudo line.”
What we know for sure is that this medium bodied Macanudo is a perfect choice for seasoned smokers and new comers alike.

Chillin’ Moose Too is the second edition of this hugely popular line from Forged Cigars.
Soon after the introduction of the original, the company quickly launched Too. For the record, this is a heartier and a bit more robust smoke. The dark luscious Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper encasing nicaraguan fillers and mature binder delivers a solid medium body.
The bonus is its offered at the same great price. The aroma is sweet and aromatic. The burn is sharp. The draw is spot on. Think flavorful notes of sweet spice, cocoa, pepper, and vanilla.
How can you go wrong!

In case you didn’t know, Macassar wood is rare. The multi country blend of highly selected dark leaf tobaccos used in this masterpiece have been aged more than four years giving this extraordinary cigar a complex mild to medium bodied taste that is as hard to find as the Macassar wood itself. This cigar is perfectly made with a smooth draw and yields huge volumes of aromatic smoke. Each size listed here requires a time commitment of at least an hour. Grab a glass of your favorite libation and you’ll forget about the price! Just think how much better they’d get if you let them age a while. Any size you pick is a top pick. The box they come in is worth the price of admission.
