Rocky Patel has created some magnificent cigars
over the years, but perhaps none has made an impact like the Rocky Patel
Decade. Known for his popular everyday smokes, Rocky Patel was launched into
the stratosphere of cigar elite with the unveiling of his super-premium Decade
series. And one of the line’s all-stars is the perky Rocky Patel Decade Forty
Six.
The box-pressed Forty Six is a spirited 4 ½” x 46
stick that is overflowing with personality. A dark Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper
leaf surrounds a blend of Nicaraguan filler tobaccos that are held fast by a
Nicaraguan binder. This 40 minute or so smoke is ideal for those who want a
great cigar without a serious time commitment.
Once the Decade Forty Six is aflame and smoke
begins to billow from its superior draw, thick flavors of cedar, pepper and
earth exuberantly greet the palate. Chocolate and spice nuances also enter the ever-changing
character of the medium-to-full bodied smoke and float upon an undercurrent of
nuts and cream, as a slightly sweet burst crowns the smooth, elegant finish.
Not only is the tasty Rocky Patel Decade Forty Six
one of the most deliciously satisfying smokes on the market, it is also a cigar
that will fit almost any time slot or occasion, making it a perfect choice for
just about every aficionado out there.
