Rocky Patel Java Mint

Rocky Patel has a new addition to its brand in the form of the Java Mint line. It's an extension of the very popular Java line that was originally released in 2006. The Java Mint still offers the chocolate profile of its predecessor, but brings some mint, mocha, and vanilla to the table.

Nish Patel, Executive Vice President of Rocky Patel Premium Cigars, hyped the Java Mint in the official press release: “Since launching Java, we’ve had numerous requests for a Mint-Chocolate version of Java – and after over a year of product development, we truly believe we’ve got a cigar that delivers the flavorful/aromatic premium cigar smoking experience at a great value that you’d expect from Rocky Patel.”

The Java Mint is highlighted by a Brazilian Maduro wrapper and a box-pressed shape. It comes in five sizes: the 4 1/2 x 38 Petite Corona, 5 x 42 Corona, 5 1/2 x 50 Robusto, 5 x 58 The 58, and 6 x 50 Toro. The cigar ships in boxes of 24, with singles retailing for $5.50 to $8 each.
