If you've read any of my reviews on this website, then you know that I'm not one to go and promote Rocky Patel. It's nothing personal against Rocky, I've just never had a Rocky Patel cigar to go crazy about. Anyways, I was sent his new Super Ligero to smoke and review. This cigar, featuring a Habano wrapper and fillers from Nicaragua and Costa Rica, is like no other Rocky Patel available. Here's the inside scoop:
1/3 - When you get this cigar lit up, you get a very woody flavor right off the bat. The finish brings a smooth chocolate flavor with some spice that lingers in the back of your throat and on your lips. So far through the 1/3 of this cigar, the construction is stellar. You have a very cooperative draw, a dead even burn, and a lot of smoke output.
2/3 - Now that we're breaking away from the first part of the cigar, it's beginning to get sweeter. Not in a swisher sweet way, but more of a cinnamon kind of sweet. Blending with the cinnamon, is a nice oaky/earthy note. The spice on the finish has vanished, leaving us with notes of earth, chocolate, and a little pepper.
3/3 - Coming up on the end of this Rocky Patel. Very enjoyable thus far. The initial flavor has not changed much, but I can't say the same about the finish. On the finish we have a very musky pepper flavor. Blends beautifully with the woody/cinnamon notes. A great cigar - I recommend picking it up if you can.
