The Gold Label is the lighter half of the Gold pair, and the presentation tells you Rocky Patel took it seriously — boxes finished like the interior of a good car, gold trim throughout.
Nicaraguan filler under dual binders gives it more structure than most cigars in this bracket. Smooth, nutty and lightly sweet, with cedar underneath. Four sizes including a 3.5-inch half corona for when time is short.
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut
Binder: Dual — Mexican and Nicaraguan
Filler: Nicaraguan long-filler
Strength: Mild to medium
Sizes: Half Corona (3.5" x 46), Robusto (5.5" x 50), Toro (6.5" x 54), Sixty (6.0" x 60)
The half corona is the one to keep in the car. Twenty minutes, no compromise.
