| Rocky Patel Sun Grown Maduro Sixty is not only the latest and greatest box-pressed cigar |
| from Rocky Patel and company; it's one of his most excellent concoctions to date! |
| More than a decade after the release of the original highly acclaimed Sun |
| Grown, Sun Grown Maduro has been presented as somewhat of a complete |
| reincarnation, this time appealing almost exclusively to fans of ultra-full-bodied cigars. |
| Unlike the original Honduran blend, Sun Grown Maduro is made in Rocky's |
| TaviCusa factory in Nicaragua. The blend consists of a spicy, bold blend |
| of Nicaraguan filler and binder tobacco beneath a dark, veiny Connecticut |
| Broadleaf maduro wrapper. The immense complexity, along with the combination of robust |
| and smooth, has earned Sun Grown Maduro very prestigious accolades from |
| various websites and magazines, including an unheard of 95 rating in Cigar |
| Aficionado, along with a high placing on the magazine's Top 25 Cigars of |
| 2016 list. Buckle up and get ready for a roller coaster of flavor, because |
| Rocky Patel Sun Grown Maduro offers one heck of a ride. |

| Rocky Patel Sun Grown Maduro is not your typical maduro cigar. The precise blend of |
| Nicaraguan fillers, coupled with the double binders and classic broadleaf wrapper make |
| a sort of hybrid flavor profile of spicy and sweet. The construction is |
| immensely beautiful, not just aesthetically, but in terms of the way the cigar burns |
| and smokes. A medium-firm draw delivers dense clouds of thick, white smoke, |
| pounding the taste buds with an immediate blast of spicy Nicaraguan pepper. |
| The spicy introduction is soon followed by layer after layer of delicious |
| nuances, including mocha, chocolate, and nutmeg. A rich, earthy |
| undertone remains constant throughout, holding the sweet and spicy flavors together in |
| beautiful harmony. The finish is sweet, clean, and quick, never ceasing to |
| bring about a desire for more. Astoundingly beautiful, Sun Grown Maduro is a whole new |
| kind of cigar from Rocky Patel. |

| A cigar of this caliber is obviously aimed at a more experienced audience. However, the |
| modest price point really calls for just about anyone to enjoy it freely. Obviously, |
| connoisseurs with more developed palates will truly appreciate the |
| complexity and strength of Sun Grown Maduro much more than beginners, but |
| nevertheless, it makes an enjoyable cigar for just about any audience. The Sixty size is a |
| 6" x 60 gordo size that offers cool, mellow flavor and a long, luxurious smoking |
| experience. Sun Grown Maduro pairs well with dark beer or coffee, and is |
| in a special class of high-end maduro cigars, including Camacho Triple Maduro |
| and Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro. Whether or not you are a fan of maduro |
| cigars, Rocky Patel Sun Grown Maduro Sixty is a cigar worth trying, as it |
| is very far from the maduro cigars you are probably used to. Don't take our |
| word for it, though. Try one yourself for a truly eye-opening experience. |
