I first smoked Rocky’s Edge Cigars at his Plantation in Honduras. Admittedly this is a good relatively inexpensive cigar. I personally prefer his Olde World Reserve. Before I moved to the UK I was a tobacconist in the US, and used to describe this delicious vitola as the closet to a Cuban that you could legally get in the US. Rocky himself is a gentleman of the first degree and has established himself as one of the true heavyweights in the industry. Personally, I wish we could get more of the depth of his line on this side of the pond.

The Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 and 1992 series is now available in Dublin, as well as the Rocky Patel Olde World Reserve, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Just relax, light it up, close your eyes and smoke without prejudice. Satisfaction guaranteed.

In all honesty: I love my Rocky P’s. For me it is the Rocky Patel Sun Grown Junior. The taste and the draw is great and they are not that expensive. Really good to enjoy myself.

Nice post Dan. I like the bit about non-believers in non-cuban cigars.
I myself used to be one of the above mentioned, but I have tried some non-cubans like Rocky Patel, Macanudo, Opus X, and Padron, and I have to admit they are often as good as any Cuban I have ever smoked. Not always, but often. In fact where they often outperform the Cuban cigars is in their construction. Always burn and draw well and seldom have to be relit. I don’t know why this is so. Any opinions would be welcome.

I have had the pleasure of smoking this cigar on my trips to the USA and all I can say is WOW. This is an unbelievable cigar, very well reviewed by cigars.ie.
My experience everytime is that it remains cool all the way to the finish, something I have not found in too many cigars. If you happen to be a non-believer in non-cuban cigars, I urge you to try the ‘Edge’. I think you might be pleasantly surprised.
