A new Rocky Patel selling for noticeably less than the rest of the line invites an obvious question, which is exactly why it is called Catch 22. The answer is that there is not much of one.
Well-constructed and full of flavour — cedar, sweet spice and a little pepper — using tobaccos the factory has in quantity rather than scarcity. Toro, a 7.5-inch double corona, or a six by sixty.

The value play in the Rocky range. Buy a box before he reprices it.
