RP Royal Vintage

[Acesfull]

Rocky Patel Royal Vintage Torpedo 6.1" x 52
Price: $3.25 from CI MMAO

Wrapper: 7 year old something rather
Binder: No idea
Filler: Central American is all the cigar.com description says
Drink: Coke Zero

Prelight Aroma: Slightly sweet earthy
Prelight Draw: Sweet and almost fruity, left a little bit of tang on the tip of my tongueThe draw offers little resistance

The cigar starts off like a hot tomale, with a strong cinnamon spice with a subtle sweetness.
About an inch in and the spice is still kicking pretty hard, although floral notes are in the back.. reminds me of a very spicey vibe.
Shortly after the spice fades and its reminding me of an RP OC, with the original sweetness there with a woodiness
Half way through and this thing tastest exactley like an Ocean's Club which is a good thing... not a bad thing.. I love the OCean's Club
Getting near the band and its still tastes like an Ocean's club with a slight hint of black licorice

All in all this was a good cigar that produced alot of smoke. It burned evenly and has great flavor.
It reminded me alot of a spicier version of a RP Ocean club with a some subtle twists.
If you like the RP Ocean Club this is a must try.

Nice tip, if I wasnt working I'd go though the whole alphabit.

When you are geek and know how url's work it proves usefull. Though I looked at the deals to late, they had a killer one on Arganese, 12 sticks and two cutters $19.99. The bastard sold out though. That was letter d.
