Here, we've got a Rocky Patel OWR that I acquired last September on the Smoke on the Water cigar cruise in Chicago. It's been kept perfectly since then, and yesterday having been a "perfect weather" day, seemed like a good time to light 'er up. I haven't really seen many of these around in the B&Ms, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The box-pressed cigar was well constructed, and it had a decent weight in-hand. Predominant flavors of chocolate and aged tobacco, and overall it was smooth and medium to full bodied. Another cigar with consistency rather than complex twists and turns. I enjoyed it with some beer, both while kicking back and throwing the frisbee disc around the yard.
I don't think I'll be scouring the shops in search of this cigar, but I did enjoy it. Should one fall onto my lap again at some point, I'd probably keep it around for another lazy day around the house.
*Speaking of RP cigars, I had the Edge Sumatra again on Saturday, and it was very good. Seems to find a nice middle ground (strength-wise) between the Edge and the Edge Lite, with some flavors of its own. Definitely a must try.
