Cigars are awesome! They let relatively poor middle class people enjoy a true luxury. I'll never own a mansion, drive a Ferrari, travel to Fiji, own a yacht, spend a $1000 on a bottle of whiskey, wear a $5000 suit or check the time on a $1000 watch... But I can smoke a luxury cigar! I can live without all those things... But boy is it nice to cut and light a flavor bomb!

I literally stopped everything I was doing and turned this on to watch. You cannot go wrong with everything in Rock Patel's Portfolio. Picking one cigar to love is like picking your favorite kid. Love the 60's ....so does my wife. the Disciple, and the Royal. But I have a box of 50's and 55's waiting for a day above 50 degrees. Soon, I hope. The Burn lounge in OKC is a great place to chill and smoke a great cigar. Opps! Boss is coming. Back to work ! ! LOL ....

Hey great interview, I'm watching from Australia...down here cigars have gotten really expensive over the last few years, but i can afford a couple of Rocky Patel's. For some reason they are on average a little cheaper than any other premium brand yet have the same quality. I've tried all the junior range (sun grown's the best i reckon) and I really like the CSWC Mareva. 😉

Wonderful interview. Rocky is such a legend and comes across as a real gentleman. He is spot on with his take on the european cigar situation, I am from the UK and, as a keen cigar enthusiast, the uk taxation has all but priced me out of my beloved cigar hobby. My favourite cigar a Romeo wide Churchill is now fifty pounds a stick and a D4 over thirty pounds. I just cannot justify that kind of money. I am definitely moving to smaller sticks and trying new world cigars going forward. Thank you for a great interview guys.

I’m smoking Rocky Patel for life because they’re great cigars and I’ve loved everything I’ve watched like this and his documentary. Very cool guy. To hear he’s also fighting the corruption just puts him on another level with me. Governments worldwide are corrupt criminal theives. Colorado just started imposing 50% excise tax on premium cigars, set to rise to 67%. They know cigars have virtually none of the risks of cigarettes, but they will use any excuse they can to steal your money, control your life, and tell you it’s for your safety. As for the top Rocky Cigars… the 1990 and 1999 are perfect cigars. Amazing that the 1990 was his first. As for the 1999, I like it more than the white label because there’s more spice and flavor but still as smooth and creamy. I agree on the ALR, but have yet to try the 60.

Should I go down to a 65% Boveda, or does the lower temp compensate for the increased humidity? Thanks for relighting my interest in premium cigars.

While Habanos will always be my favourite I definitely enjoying trying different New World Cigars. I’m smoking a Rocky Patel A.L.R Second Edition Toro right now. A truly amazing Cigar.
