Reviews

The reviews of this week are the aged, limited & rare from Rocky Patel. The second edition. And we are sorry that it’s limited, as it is one of the best Rocky Patel cigars we ever smoked. The second review is the Dias de Gloria by A.J. Fernandez. We smoked the Robusto size of this cigar that is a tribute to the heydays of the Cuban cigar industry.
