Rocky Patel Year of the Snake to Debut at PCA 2025

February 7, 2025 Inspector X 2 min read

Last week marked the beginning of the Year of the Snake, and Rocky Patel Premium Cigars is once again celebrating the occasion with a special release. Following the success of last year’s Year of the Dragon cigars, the brand will introduce the Rocky Patel Year of the Snake Toro at the 2025 PCA Convention & Trade Show.

The Rocky Patel Year of the Snake Toro is a meticulously crafted 6 1/2 x 52 cigar featuring a Nicaraguan Habano wrapper, a Nicaraguan broadleaf binder, and a rich blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan fillers. This exceptional cigar is produced at Rocky Patel’s TAVICUSA factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, ensuring the brand’s signature quality and craftsmanship.

With an MSRP of $35 per cigar, this limited-edition release will see only 6,000 boxes of 10 cigars produced, making it a sought-after item for collectors and aficionados alike. Despite the Year of the Snake already commencing, the official launch of this cigar will take place during the 2025 PCA Convention & Trade Show, set for April 12-14 in New Orleans.

In addition to the U.S. release, Rocky Patel Premium Cigars plans to offer an alternate vitola for international markets. However, specific details regarding this non-U.S. variant have yet to be disclosed.

Rocky Patel continues to honour the Chinese zodiac with premium, exclusive cigars tailored for both American and international audiences. As anticipation builds for the Year of the Snake Toro, cigar enthusiasts can expect another expertly blended, limited-edition offering from one of the industry’s most respected names.
