Review Notes:
I liked this one except for the occasional hint of under aged tobacco. It would smoke well for several puffs and then it would taste green and tart. I will try again in a month.

Review Notes:
I consistently go to Rocky Patel's Edge and almost every time the experience is a bit different. Sometimes I get a flawless middle brown wrapper and at other times I get wrappers with slight flaws and discolorations. Construction though, is consistently good and The Edge features a solid, tight roll with no soft spots. Lighting is effortless and The Edge takes to a flame with zeal, producing a nice deep red cherry quickly with almost no touch-ups required. The draw is easy and always fills the mouth with large amounts of smoke. In the taste category, I have noticed inconsistency. At best, smoking The Edge is a wonderful ride that opens up with a blast of spice and pepper and slowly mellows to a medium/full leathery, caramel tinged smoke. At worst, the Edge can leave the smoker feeling as though he is sucking on lemons and grass—as if you were smoking an immature stick. Although slightly inconsistent in flavor, at its best, The Edge is a wonderful experience. And generally speaking, The Edge scores most of the time and for the price it’s worth a bad stick here and there.

Review Notes:
This is a very solid, worthy "go-to anytime" cigar.
Going in to this smoke, I was, as many others have expressed, surprised to find a much more mellow flavor than is advertised for these cigars. Luckily, it is a deception that proves to be for the best. At first draw, the spiced flavors hinted that the leaf would grow bolder, but instead it mellowed through the 2nd third, with just the right amount of woody tinge to flavor the palate. I had a glass of Jack single barrel to accompany it, which turned out to be almost too strong for the "knock you on your butt" cigar. A very pleasurable smoke.

Review Notes:
Excellent construction and a nice smooth medium bodied smoke. I was expecting something a little "edgier" along the same lines as the maduro, but this one seems a little more sedate. That's not a bad thing necessarily. A nice aroma with some cereal like accents. My baseline for corojo is the Camacho corojo, which I think is far bolder than this Edge. I was expecting more spice, but this is a good cigar nevertheless.

Review Notes:
The construction of this was impeccable. A nice smooth brown corojo wrapper with some medium veins around a consistently firm smoke. The light was easy with a flawlessly even, slow burn the entire length - something for all rollers to aspire to. There was no tunneling, or runners and it never "got soft." The initial flavor was a bit rough with earth and black pepper dominating the palate. This quickly gave way to juicy black cherry and aromatic cedar notes, which stayed for most of the smoke. There were some fleeting moments of chocolate and spicy. A great smoke afte a meal.
