At the IPCPR show in 2011, Rocky Patel showed off his most expensive cigar to date, the Rocky Patel Fifty. Produced tocommemorate his fiftieth birthday, the Fiftys are rolled in Rocky’s new factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, Tabacalera Villa Cuba S.A., better known as TAVICUSA. The tobacco used in the Fifty release have been aged over eight years and the blend uses a double binder as well. Rocky worked for over four years perfecting the blend of this cigar, and we are launching it to celebrate his 50th birthday. The tobaccos in the Rocky Patel Fifty have been aged over eight years, and the cigars feature an Ecuadorian wrapper, each hand selected from the unique 7th priming of the tobacco plant. The cigars feature two distinct binders that both enhance, and engage, the flavors of the secret blend of Nicaraguan fillers.

Nicaragua
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. This climate allows tobacco growers to grow Connecticut-seed wrapper in the shade without shade cloths, resulting in more economical wrapper.

The Hamlet 2020 sports a mouthwatering, chocolatey Ecuadorian Habano maduro wrapper that expertly sheaths a Honduran binder and a savory filler made of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobacco.

Cuban master roller Hamlet Paredes developed and blended this medium to full-bodied beauty for Rocky Patel, and it is his first venture outside of Cuban tobacco. Using a rich Mexican San Andres wrapper, binders from Brazil and Mexico, and filler from Nicaragua, the Hamlet Tabaquero is a testament to the fact that a good cigar not only needs worthy components, but a skillful set of hands to make it amazing. Notes of coffee, cocoa, earth and spice flood the palate, with a smooth leathery cream on the finish.
