If you're looking for a seriously vintage smoke, take it back to 1979 with the Rocky Patel Vintage 1979 cigar. That's right—this stick showcases a toothy African Cameroon wrapper that has aged for over 40 effing years. Cameroon wrappers are challenging to grow and roll, but their flavor-packed buttery smoothness makes them well worth it, even more so if they've aged for over four decades. Many Cameroon wrappers aren't grown in Africa, though those that are, like this one, are more complex and juicier.
Making up the rest of the five-country blend in Rocky Patel Vintage 1979 cigars is a core blend of long-fillers from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Honduras held together by a Mexican binder. Combine this smooth blend with the African Cameroon wrapper, and you've got a well-balanced cigar with plenty of sweetness and just the right amount of restrained spice to keep it interesting. The outcome is a medium-strength smoke with notes of baker's chocolate, sweetness, wood, and subtle spice.
The 40 plus year aged wrapper alone makes the Rocky Patel Vintage 1979 cigars an easy choice. The rest of the thoughtful blend only makes the choice easier. Grab these vintage gems today to start smoking a piece of history.
