ロッキー・パテル サン・グロウン

The spice on the palate is just right—not overpowering at all—and that 91 rating is well earned for the smooth, medium-plus body. Burned evenly down to a nice, firm ash the whole way through.

That five-year-old Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper gives it a really smooth start before the spice kicks in about halfway through. I’ve been smoking these after dinner and the medium-plus body hits just right without being too heavy.

The burn on this is razor sharp, and that five-year-old Sumatra wrapper really delivers a nice pepper kick without going overboard. Perfect medium-plus smoke for when I want a little spice but not a heavy punch.
