Rocky Patel Conviction Toro Cigar – Single

The Rocky Patel Conviction Toro measures 6½" x 52 with a box-pressed format. It uses an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper aged through the Terciario Cuban method, featuring San Andrés tobacco selected for optimal oil content. The binder and fillers combine Nicaraguan tobaccos from 2014 harvest bales, aged for extended fermentation.
