RobustoVintage 1999 Is a great great great cigar. The flavors of the cigar are a bit more spicy than I prefer. I do however enjoy the cigar in small doses I have five left and they should last a long time that being said451

RobustoThis Connecticut is by far one of the best I have ever had period. I was gifted one after smoking I bought two boxes. This blend is smooth with very good flavor notes. Highly recommend this cigar to everyone.551

RobustoThese are very mild smokes. They are good but definitely the mildest Rocky I have ever had. They don't taste bad but they are not very flavorful. So if you like mild and bland (couldn't think of a more neutral term) then this a good one for you.451

RobustoI was told by a few of my friends that Rocky Patel was a solid brand they weren't joking. This was a smooth smoke with consistent construction and an even burn. It had a mild peppery taste not too strong it tended to be more on the mellow side. From start to finish it was an enjoyable smoke. I think this will work itself into my regular rotation.451

RobustoHave to agree with the majority on this one. Beautiful construction and appearance. Firm and smooth draw with notes of cream and hay. Before the burn I noticed hints of raisin and this stick was mellow throughout. My first RP and definitely not my last.451

RobustoThe vintage 1999 line by Pat r l cigars is a pretty tasty cigar. Sometimes good cigars like this are overshadowed by the huge piles of crap the company over produces. Cut the number of garbage lines rocky. Then people would see all your cigars as good instead of bring worried about wasting money on another garbage can lining cigar351

RobustoGreat smoke was smooth and very flavorful without being harsh. Picked up dynamic flavors of cedar and coffee even a little touch of sweetness. The end cap was a little messy and the burn was not the most consistent although the flavors did not suffer from it and changed pleasantly throughout a little bit. This is a cigar I'll even enjoy tasting in the back of my throat when I wake up in the morning.451

RobustoThis is a must have for your humidor. It's replaced my collection of Ashton Cabinets. Perfect for a breakfast smoke. While Ashton's appeal to me for their smooth peppery and spicy taste this stick offers a smooth earthy toasty buttery taste. A solid choice you will enjoy when you want a mild/medium stick. I am smoking one as I write this review and felt compelled to give it praise.451

RobustoPersonally I am not the biggest fan of the newer cigar taste profile where things are full of pepper and strength. The older I get the more I appreciate milder cigars that I can smoke without palate burnout. This cigar is a bit stronger than the more traditional Connecticut wrapped sticks, but still on the mild side of medium. Smooth, toasty aged tobacco flavors with a hint (not a lot) of sweetness. Just a little bit of pepper. Enough to make it more modern in taste profile, but not over-the-top by any means. Most were well constructed and all had a great open draw. Excellent aroma. I’d say try them if you are a veteran Connecticut cigar enthusiast looking for something a bit fuller, or a fan of pepper bombs looking for an easy approachable relatively mild stick. The flavors here should satisfy everyone.451

RobustoIt is a smooth creamy tasting cigar that I use for an everyday smoke. It tends to be rolled a little tight sometimes and the wrapper slightly dry but overall I continually buy this one.451

RobustoBecause of aggressive Rapid Fire auction pricing on 5 packs, these industry standard Connecticut gems are a steal. Smooth, rich Rocky Patel flavor you know you'll enjoy fro the first puff to the final draw.451

RobustoObtain a few RP Vintage 1999 Robusto cidars as part of a sampler pack. You can feel thr cigar is tightly rolled. When it comes to robustos, I usually prefer a punch. After the punch, because of the tight roll, i couldn't get a good draw. In the spirit of the punch, I proceeded anyway with my toast and initial light. To me, it felt like I had to work on getting a decent draw. After a few attempted puffs, I opted to cut the end. After my cut, thr draw was a little easier and I could taste the creaminess and smooth nodes. The first 1/3 was tough to get through, but after that the cigar seemed to open up a bit and the draw became easier. The burn was consistant and ashed fairly well. The last 2/3 were more robust and all in all was a good cigar. Now let me preface by saying I should have started this review by stating that I like a full body rodust cigar a good toro or robusto. Personally I wouldn't purchase this one again, but this cigar was good.351

The Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Robusto cigar far exceeds its modest price by using seven-year-aged Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos, covered by a gorgeous silky blonde 7-year old Connecticut Shade wrapper. This mellow masterpiece produces lush multi-layered notes of sweet cream, cocoa, baking spices, leather, and cedar, to provide a truly unforgettable smoking experience. We think its one of the best Rocky Patel creations ever made, and a slew of 90-plus ratings can back up that claim!
