The Rocky Patel Quarter Century Toro commemorates 25 years of cigar craftsmanship, featuring a San Andrés wrapper and Nicaraguan-grown tobaccos. Aged for 10 years pre-roll and 2 years post-roll, this 6.5" x 52-ring gauge Toro vitola combines Honduran and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos with a Nicaraguan binder. The extended format provides 90+ minutes of smoking time, emphasizing flavor development through precise aging protocols.
The Honduran Maduro wrapper undergoes decade-long aging, developing a dark, oily surface with minimal tooth. This outer leaf encases a blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan long-fillers, selected for compatibility with the wrapper's natural sweetness. Post-production aging in bales ensures chemical integration between components.
Flavor progression includes:
- Initial notes: Earth, oak, black pepper
- Mid-smoke: Dark chocolate, espresso, leather, toasted nuts
- Final third: Cream texture with residual spice
Packaged in 20-count boxes, the Quarter Century Toro utilizes box-press shaping for structural consistency. Combustion properties derive from the aged Nicaraguan binder's elasticity, maintaining even burn lines despite variable humidity conditions.
