The only thing that could make the cigar burn unevenly was my lighting the cigar and the wind. The glow line was incredibly even from start to finish.

Wrapper: Corojo

Binder: Nicaragua

Filler: Am sorry, i dont know

Cigar taste Unlit

After cutting the cigar I took a few puffs before lighting it and got a nice cedar wood flavor. I like this part, it gives me a chance to enjoy the cigar for a longer time and feel all the flavors the cigar has to offer.

Taste 1/2

After lighting the Rocky Patel the Edge Corojo Short Robusto cigar, more flavors were offered than I had expected given the size. It offered more flavors than many larger cigars.The cigar put on a show of flavors.

It all started with a buttery texture with a light light creaminess. The flavors mixed and shifted somewhat already in the first 1/2 of the cigar. It all started with a smooth sweet fruitiness with a general nuttiness in the background. The balance between fruitiness and nuttiness kept the cigar from being too sweet or nutty. As I got a bit into the cigar a general floral flavor came in and was joined by flavors I can’t describe other than a sweet leafy bonfire like flavor nuance. You know the bonfire you feel on the edge of autumn that is sweet and warms you when you are outdoors. Towards the end of the 1/2 came a lighter bitterness of dark chocolate, raisins far in the background with a malty nuance and light light citrus note. When I retrohaled, it lightly tickled my nose and felt a light taste of white pepper.

2/2

When I stepped into 2/2 of the Rocky Patel The Edge Corojo Short Robusto cigar, the texture changed a little more from being slightly creamy and slightly buttery/oily. The flavors that came through were light citrus with a light fruitiness and a dark chocolate like bitterness in the background. As I neared the end of the cigar it rounded off and flavors of oak fire and espresso entered.

Aftertaste

The aftertaste was oak and valenuts.
