Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 Torpedo Cigar Review Video

[kaelaria]

This 6.25 by 52 maduro stick offers a virtually seamless satin wrapper with some small veins showing in darkened color only. Overall a dark chocolate color it gives off a rich oily slightly sweet tobacco aroma. First light reveals a full palate of complex flavors, requiring multiple draws to fully experience. They included deep earth, sweetness, smooth tobacco, nuts, slight pepper, cocoa, coffee and cream. The first third develops to a solid medium body, with tons of very smooth rich smoke output and a very easy draw. Flavors remain complex and very creamy in texture. By the 2nd third flavors had become more of the creamy cocoa, with undertones of a caramel and a deep oily finish. Ending at the 1:10 min mark, the stick proved to be the same flavor wise through the remainder, which was just fine with me! http://cigarobsession.com/cigar-reviews/rocky-patel-vintage-1990-torpedo-cigar-review/

I smoked these alot when I first got into smoking cigars on a daily basis. I honestly think they are the best of the RP line and then probibly the Edge. I never had any stain issues from the wrapper on any of them. Thanks for the review!

I have to laugh at the people that try and make huge deals about dyed wrappers. I have had hundreds and hundreds of RP maduros - 1990, 1992, Edge, OWR, etc. and have not once had a stain.
