Rocky Patel

Rocky Patel is one of the most recognizable names in modern cigars, built by Rakesh “Rocky” Patel, a former Los Angeles attorney who traded law for tobacco in the 1990s and grew his company into a major player through relentless travel, quality, and marketing. His cigars are made in Honduras and Nicaragua, the two heartlands of Central American tobacco. The portfolio is enormous and spans nearly every strength and price point, from the aged Vintage 1990 and 1992 to the bold Decade, The Edge, and Sun Grown, plus a long list of anniversary editions. Most land somewhere in the medium to full-bodied range, with the construction and consistency that earned the brand its following. Wide-ranging and widely available, Rocky Patel cigars offer something for nearly every palate and budget.
