Rocky Patel has sold cigars under the Indian Tabac label since 1995, but it wasn't until 2003 that he created a cigar using his own name. His Vintage blend is entirely new, made in a separate factory with older tobaccos and a balanced and elegant blend with good complexity. 2004 was a breakout year for Patel.
The Vintage 1990 is a blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan Ligero wrapped in a natural Broadleaf wrapper from Honduras. It is medium-bodied and box-pressed with a really enjoyable, complex rich flavour.
