Rocky Patel Vintage 2006

The first entry into the world-famous Vintage Series to be handmade at Rocky’s TAVICUSA factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, the Rocky Patel Vintage 2006 San Andreas harnesses a world of rich taste into yet another perfectly crafted blend of aged tobaccos. Boasting a burly, 11-year aged Mexican San Andres wrapper leaf over bold Connecticut Broadleaf binder and fine Nicaraguan fillers, the 2006 Andreas does a great honor to the legacy established by its highly-rated Vintage predecessors. Warm sweetness with tinges of pecan and hints of leather, coffee, and cocoa make for a truly remarkable profile that’s essential tasting for any lover of full-bodied, full-flavored complexity. As Rocky himself put it, “It may be the youngest among the siblings, but it delivers with robust flavor and power.”
