Back by popular demand, Rocky Patel Premium Cigars reissued the popular Luminoso glass ashtrays, and they began shipping to tobacconists in early February. These are definitely heavyweights. Each Luminoso ashtray weighs in at 6lbs, 4oz. Featuring a massive 7-inch bowl with a 1-inch depth, they are also available in three new colors: Smoke, Purple, and Crystal (showcasing a colorless clear body allowing the ashtray’s angles to refract light). Each ashtray has the "RP” logo prominently featured in the center of the bowl, painted by hand.
The next Alliance Cigar DeSocio series release will come from none other than Rocky Patel Premium Cigars (RPCC). The new Rocky Patel DeSocio will be a corona gorda vitola of the highly acclaimed Sun Grown Maduro line. The Sun Grown Maduro DeSocio will feature Nicaraguan filler and binder tobacco, with a classic Connecticut broadleaf wrapper. The blend is the same that garnered RPCC their highest ever ranking in CA magazine.
"I really enjoyed this cigar quite a bit. It had a mellow and smooth smoke for almost the entire time, never harsh and never bitter. I kept thinking while I was smoking that this would be a great late spring or summer smoke because it was so bright tasting. It had a fresh upbeat taste that was medium-full in flavor, so it would be a great way to end the day. Nicely constructed too made it a big hit for me." -Paul (pmr1010)
The Rocky Patel Royale was release in 2013 and uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper. The Robusto comes in at 5”x52 and carries an MSRP of $8.95.
Phillips & King will be exclusively distributing the Rocky Patel Olde World Reserve Corojo and Maduro from now on. The original release took place 10 years ago and is now being exclusively distributed by Phillips & King as of late September 2022. It was discontinued in 2012 because the Costa Rican maduro wrapper, which was used primarily on The Edge Maduro, had become too rare. The line made a comeback at the 2018 IPCPR trade show and remained quiet until now.
