Rocky Patel The Edge Corojo Robusto

What you need to know

The Corojo tobacco variety always scores with its distinctive spiciness, without necessarily being "overpowered". This extremely fairly priced Robusto Largo with a smoking time of approx. 55 - 70 minutes is a prime example of this - as is the impeccable craftsmanship of the rolling process

Flavors

Some aficionados consider Rocky's unmistakable blending to be somewhat expressive or overloaded - but connoisseurs agree that he has found an excellent balance here. A variety of spicy notes are in the spotlight, as is typical for Corojo; a moderate pepper kick complements nutmeg, clove, sparkling cinnamon or a pinch of allspice perfectly. However, they are carried throughout by a wonderfully smoky texture with a hint of vanilla. A leathery, woody astringency skillfully cushions the distinct sweetness of meadow honey and yellow oast. The cigar becomes intense and strong in the final third. Top!
