Man, I swear...in my opinion Rocky has never topped this blend. I would go a step further and say that he has never topped this exact size and blend. This is one of the
very few cigars I loved as a noob and still smoke all the time. RP's cigars have always been hit or miss with me (more often miss) but just this cigar alone makes me a Rocky fan.
Unique spicy/woodsy flavor, a nice bite in the nostrils, and an amazing aroma coming from the foot of the cigar. The finish is tart and earthy with a "dark" flavor that I can't describe.
"Super fuerte"? Meh...I would imagine it was back when they first came out, but compared to today's quadruple-ligero bombs I would call it medium plus.
What's also great is the fact that I used to pay $5 a stick for these at the Tinder Box, and they can be had on Cbid and occasionally Famous Smoke Shop for a dollar and change. Famous sometimes runs a Monster deal of a bundle of 20 for $25 shipped.
This is one cigar that I always have a steady supply of, in various stages of rest in the humi. They don't burn so well when fresh. I give 'em 6 months or so in the low 60s RH.
