Rocky Patel Tavicusa

TAVICUSA was blended as a tribute to Rocky Patel's Estelí factory and leans on a San Andrés wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder with fillers from Condega, Estelí and Jalapa. The cigar reads toasty and savory—burnt‑coffee and mocha drive the opening while cedar, earth and mineral notes form a firm midpalate; occasional orange or cherry sweetness surfaces to temper the toast. Strength is medium‑full and the blend keeps a steady, flavor‑forward presence to the nub. Well‑constructed samples earned praise for their consistent performance; it's a good example of a San Andrés‑wrapped Nicaraguan core that emphasizes toast and depth.
