Rocky Patel Hamlet Tabaquero Corona 5"1/2 * 42

Hamlet Paredes was a Habanos S.A. ambassador who traveled the world doing rolling demonstrations and Cuban Tobacco seminars.

The cigars are made in Nicaragua with Mexican San Andres wrapper, Nicaraguan filler and San Andres and Brazilian Mata Fina double binder. The Rocky Patel Hamlet Tabaquero Corona is a medium to full bodied 5.5 inch by 42 ring gauge corona.

  Rocky Patel Hamlet Tabaquero

  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.

Their cigars are made at Rocky Patel’s Tavicusa factory in Esteli, Nicaragua as well as their El Paraiso factory in Danli, Honduras.
• Cigar Wrapper
  Mexican San Andres Maduro

  The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
  Mexican tobacco is very dark and the best leaves can be used as maduro wrappers. San Andres Maduro is a thick, medium bodied dark leaf, also called San Andres Morron. Like Connecticut Broadleaf, San Andres Maduro is stalk cut and used for binder and wrapper.
• Cigar Binder
  Brazil

  The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
  Brazil grows tobacco from North to South. The East Central State of Bahia is an important cigar tobacco producer. The growing area is about 100 miles west of the state capital, Salvador da Bahia, an active port on the Atlantic Coast. The Northern State of Alagoas hosts a production around the city of Arapiraca where maduro wrappers are grown. The Southern states of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina produce tobacco for cigarettes and pipe.

  Mexico

  The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
  Mexican tobacco is primarily grown in the San Andres region due to its volcanic soil. It has a very distinctive flavor with a spicy and earthy profile. As a binder it adds to the cigar’s overall flavor.
• Cigar Filler
  Nicaragua

  Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
