When it comes to fine cigars, the Rocky Patel brand stands out among the competition and is well known for its quality and design. Based in Florida, this line of cigars was brought to the masses thanks to the founder, Rakesh “Rocky” Patel. As a former entertainment lawyer, Patel left his business after coming across the opportunity to create his own line of fine cigars. This led him to seek the best materials and put together a product that he felt was missing from the industry. With the success of his Indian Tabac blend in the 1990s, Patel went on to create the Vintage line of Rocky Patel cigars in 2003.
This brand of cigars has continued to enjoy success around the world and consistently receives a top rating of 90 by Cigar Aficionado and other publications that specialize in spotlighting the best of the best in the cigar manufacturing industry.
In addition to the wide range of cigars available for retail, Patel’s company also produces special cigars for private label retailers. These include the Conuco, Cruz Real, Vibe, Reo, Chicago Reserve Torpedo and the Rocky Patel American Market Selection, Honduran Classic, Rosado, Fuma, Cuban Blend, and Ocean Club.
In terms of production, the company prefers to purchase its materials directly from growers instead of owning their own factories and plantations. Honduras is currently the main source of materials that are used to create the cigars. Mr. Patel himself makes it a point to be very hands-on with the entire process and regularly travels to oversee the process of drying, fermenting, aging and blending the cigars. Additionally, he travels around the world, promoting his brand and creating new waves of devoted followers.
