Featuring a dark Sumatra wrapper, Decade cigars were created to commemorate Rocky Patel's 10th Anniversary in the cigar industry. It's hard to believe, considering the top-notch cigars he has produced in the past, but the Decade may very well be his finest blend yet. While Rocky's gone on to created a slew of popular, 90+ rated blends, Decade remains one of his best-selling... and once you try one for yourself, you'll quickly realize why.
Rocky Patel Decade is, quite simply, an unforgettable cigar with a smooth, rich, and complex flavor. A testament to how far Rocky has progressed, this cigar is just as good now as it was in its original release, years back. The extremely delicate balance and distinct taste will leave you craving more — to combat these cravings, CI prescribes a minimum dosage of at least 5 Rocky Patel Decades available in your humidor at all time.
In addition to a stunning '95' rating, Rocky Patel Decade was named one of Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 Cigars of the Year. The reviewers wrote, "Oily and pressed with a great draw. The cigar has a rich and creamy texture with distinct notes of black cherry and a nutty finish. Balanced and elegant."
wow its creamy, a little bite and plenty of flavor. very smooth yet strong.

I've smoked a few Robustos from this line as part of samplers I've picked up along the way. It's a great cigar. Great construction, great draw and burn. The flavor is strong, not for the faint of heart, but a quality taste. Side note, samplers are notorious for the cigars being a tad dry, so I would have to say that one of these fresh from the box would be even better!

Very nice draw from the first puff to last. Didn’t want it to end . Full flavored yet so creamy and delicate. Lots of nice smoke with nutty aroma to it. Will definitely have to plan for the cost of this cigar, not one I could do everyday. It will however be on all my wish lists in the future. Well done Rocky!!

I have smoked this cigar many times and it has always lived up to the lofty 96 rating so I jumped at a 10 pack deal even though the size had gone from 5.5 to 5 and it was suddenly appearing in many samplers.Unfortunately Rocky must have been on vacation as these were loosely rolled and clearly not the same quality.

This is my first RP smoke. Beautiful draw and well constructed. Even burn and enjoyable. Slightly astringent but not harsh. I would smoke this again. I would rate a 4.5 if an option but have to round down as it won't be a "go to" smoke that I'll tell friends they have to try.

A Decade Above The Rest
Sep 07, 2018
The Decade is an elite cigar. In fact, even Rocky will tell you it is his personal favorite. I’ve been enjoying this blend ever since I tried it some years ago. Having rich flavor and a satisfying combo of black cherry, birch and other distinct tastes, puts this one in a class by itself. I’ve never had a RP Decade that didn’t meet my expectations. Try these and you will see why the cigar gets such high ratings.

Smoking one as I type. Excellent cigar, box-pressed tightly for a long lasting and very good tasting smoke. Very well wrapped, doesn't give any hint of coming unwrapped throughout the whole cigar. How well did I like it? I'm putting RP at the top of my list starting with a box of Vintage 1990 through another excellent CI special and then the next box will be RP as well.

Apr 20, 2018
maybe it just wasnt for me, but very harsh. just a punch of earthyness throughout that got to be to much. it also didnt burn evenly and started to unravel a little towards the end

Best cigar for the money end of story
Feb 17, 2018
I smoke a lot of cigars. Few rival RP's Decade for the price. Taste, construction, burn--all perfect. Amazing cigar. Flawless wrapper, copious rich flavorful smoke. I often go weeks before smoking another (for cost and what not) and when I light up the Decade I think - "why haven't don't we meet more often my friend?"

My first love—a great smoke to start with and enjoy for over and over.
Jan 07, 2018
Just a great, consistent smoke. These are the first cigars I fell in love with and having a Rocky always makes me sentimental. They’re great cigars that you can always count on to have great flavor, a great draw, and maximum enjoyment.

One of my favorite smokes rated at a 95! The coffee and chocolate notes are awesome! Smooth and long burning for a 5/50! I would love to see a bit more chunky one but these are always in my humidor! You don’t find these discounted too often but they are worth the price! Thanks CI for the Christmas deal!

RP Decade
Dec 23, 2017
Starting to become a fan of the Rocky Patel line. Fell in love with the Sun Grown, and the Prohibition is probably one of the finest of any cigar I've tried. Finally tried the Decade, and it was worth the wait. Slow, easy draw, great construction and very pleasing the to the taste. All a little pricey, but if you can catch them on sale, you gotta try each of these.

Everything about this cigar was awesome! The flavor, strength, perfect. The draw was perfect. The construction and burn were perfect. The only thing that was slightly less than perfect was that this smoke is listed as a robusto, but the ring size seemed to small.

Rocky Patel Decade Robustos Are Awesome!!!!
Dec 17, 2017
These are my Favorite Smokes!!! Yes, They are Box Pressed. Once you get over that, These smokes throw out so much smoke and they taste really good. They are a semi strong strength, even for box press. So If you like that, Buy these!!! I always get them from CI because they have the best price. Even better when you get them on Sale!!! Always shipped Fresh!!! Put them in your Humi for a week or 2, and you are ready for an Awesome Smokes!!!

I can’t talk about, “Hints of leather” or licorice etc.
Never noticed those things in cigars.
I can talk about how I enjoyed it though and I did enjoy it.
I tend to smoke my faves down to the last inch, that’s where I can tell if it’s good or not. I’ve only smoked 3 so far and only one didn’t make it to the final inch and that was probably my fault.
The only thing wrong with this cigar is it’s too expensive for every day, but it is priced right for “good” smokes.

Oct 04, 2017
Meh, closer to medium. Burns too fast and uneven. Got a five pack as part of the blue Chip #20 package. I equate this cigar to the unimpressive beer you give casual friends so you don't waste the good stuff. Much better available for less. And that's coming from an experienced smoker.

Aug 19, 2017
I give Decade cigars a 92 rating. They are always consistent and I believe they are Rocky Patel's best value. If it weren't for the Royale, the Decade would be Rocky's best drawing/best tasting cigar. Decade and Royal are both like a poor-mans Padron. God I wish I hadn't squandered my youth. If I had only worked a little harder and saved a little more. I might have been able to afford to smoke Padrons and Arturo Fuentes in my retirement years. Such regrets. Such regrets.

RP Decade is about as good as it gets!
Jul 31, 2016
Got a 5 pack of these as a part of a recent special. OMG, these are off the charts good! I normally smoke Dominican Montecristos, Upmann, Punch, or Macanudo. As good as those are, they don't compare! These RP's are flavorful and smooth as silk to the final draw! I've smoked cigars for 35 years and the only thing I've had to compare is real Cuban Montecristo #2s, which I have a source for but save for special occasions. My humidor is full but I think I'll buy a box of these RP Decades because none of other regular smokes compare.

Poor Quality
Jul 26, 2016
This cigar has gone down in quality. When I first purchased this cigar a few years ago, it was great. It was just as good as the Old World Reserve. But this last order was not anywhere near as good as the first batch. The flavor was nothing to write home about, just ashy. One third of the way through I was hoping it would get better, but it got worse. There was not one good smoke in the bunch.

I've always been a fan of the Decade line and usually smoke the Robusto. The Forty-Six is perfect when I am a little short on time. Every stick in the box is well made and typical of Rocky Patel's quality standards. The flavor of the Forty-Six is consistent with the Decade line; smooth, medium to full, slight spice, faint sweet, smooth finish. I highly recommend you try one.

A tale of two cigars..
Mar 10, 2016
I had two of these from the Legal Limit Sampler V pack. So the wife and I fired both up to give them a try. I did a regular guillotine cut and she went with a punch. For me, there was a noticeable difference the two cuts. I cut mine, and the pre-draw exposed hints of coffee and nuts which basically was the favor throughout. On the last third we both picked up some pepper and a little bitterness. My cigar started to unravel on both the front and backend. I never had that happen before but oh well. On the other hand the other held up perfectly.
The draw was effortless, light smoke density and very lightweight. As my wife normally leans towards the more mild side, as the cigar started to get bitter and stronger she tapped out. I proceeded to finisher hers and notice right away what a better smoke experience the cigar was with the punch cut. It made me forget about the negative experience I had with mine. I was hoping for a little more complex flavors, so not sure this one will make it back in the humidor but it might. But that's the purpose of the sample packs. I'll try some other RP until I find my flavor profile.
Thanks CI for the sample pack.

Feb 10, 2016
Good flavor, but just too light and fast burning. Got 5 of these in a "90+" sampler. I was surprized how light they felt right out of the package. Rolled too loosely, so they burned fast. Definitely not a good feel right away. For the regular price of these, please buy the Edge. Much better smoke for the money from Rocky.

Rocky Patel Decade
Jan 08, 2016
I am not a maduro fan. But the Rocky Patel Decade is a smooth, tasty, medium bodied cigar that doesn't assault your taste buds like other maduros I have tried. It is the perfect cigar for a lazy afternoon.

I would rather have a RP edge Habano Fuma. Too harsh and other than strength no discernable taste.

Customer Testimonials
Got these in the top 25 sampler. This is a very nice cigar, lots and lots of delicious smoke, pretty strong, burned for an hour. Give 'em a try.
EF of Harrisburg, AR
I cannot believe a Honduran cigar could taste this good. I smoke mostly Nicaraguan cigars and love Diesel Unholy and Unlimited Maduro, but I must say these are great cigars -- even though I have not liked several other RP cigars I tried before.
WD of MIAMI, FL
In my opinion this is one of RP best. I can't find anything wrong to say about it. It's everything in a cigar I love. The strength and smoothness is there from start to finish along the sharp burn with a firm ash. This is a stick I'll be keeping in my regular rotation. You just can't go wrong.
ET of Joplin, MO
Well as I'm sitting here smoking a decade, I gotta say this: they are great. The first few I had were downright dreadful, but it must have been a bad batch because this cigar is fantastic! Not my favorite Rocky, but without a doubt a good cigar. 8/10.
AS of La Grange, TX
Delish and as described. I got a pack of 5 robustos with a combo and my friends and I enjoyed them all. The only burn problems I had were when I got distracted or when I didn't let them dry-box or air out long enough after a few weeks in my 68 RH humi. I usually will transfer to a 60 RH tubo or Herfador for a few hours/day or let a stogie sit out for a half hour or so depending on weather..I find most cigars burn unevenly when they're above 65 as the fillers absorb more humidity than the wrapper and somewhat unevenly so not RP's or CI's fault, just my storage process and pre-smoke prep ritual not being followed to my own satisfaction.
The only real complaint was that I found the robusto burning too hot for my gums and tongue after the first third or so. I was probably puffing a little too much, but tried to pace myself and left the ash on as long as I could. Definitely going to experiment with the ones left and buy a few toro, torpedo or other longer/fatter vitolas in this blend.
EJ of Austin, TX
Just finished my first Decade, and in my 60 decades this was the best cigar I have had; WILL NOT be my last!! Well done, RP.
JB of Jonesboro, AR
Smoking this as I write, down to the last 3rd. Overall a pretty good stick with nice flavor. Started off fine but into the 2nd I've had to correct the burn twice. Little disappointed with that but still good flavor. I will get a few more and see how they burn.
NS of Garden Plain, KS
A wonderful smoke. I'm a fan of full bodied smokes, but these are amazing. Burning one right now. Ahhhh
MT of Browns Summit, NC
got a fiver of these in a sampler. very nice balanced flavor. very nutty cigar. hints of wood and a nice sweetness to the tobacco. it got a little harsh sooner than i would have liked, about the last 1/3. would purchase again if on sale... i'm too cheap to buy cigars for 10$ a pop! 7/13/14
CE of Milford, PA
Wow best cigar I have had in years. 95 rating is to low I give it 98 if not 99 great. Full body hints of sweetness, coffee and spice and can keep going - just that good. I first got one as a gift then ordered a box and then another. Just that good. Pick up a box, so damn good.
BL of Peoria, AZ
O my I'm usually not a fan of dark cigars but this just blew my mind. I know I has a high rating and it's always talked about but I never expected it to be this good. I'll be buying more and spreading the word these are awsome very tasty
RH of Mount Morris, MI
love them the best of all RPs.
JB of LAKE RONKONKOMA, NY
Love it best RP around. IMO.....
JB of LAKE RONKONKOMA, NY
Might just be the best cigar ive ever had, seriously. Great cigar, huge fan.
TH of Newport News, VA
Lit one of the RP Decade robusto cigars up from the 92+ sampler pack (great deal) without knowing what I was getting myself into. I was impressed from the first puff all the way down to the nub. My wife kept asking me if I was ok because I was talking to the cigar while I was smoking it. It is a creamy blend with medium to full strength. I detect the black cherry notes and think it has a mild chocolate flavor. It is a truly delicious cigar and I would agree with other people's comments that it's one of the best cigars I've ever smoked. I bought the 5 pack and had a consistent experience and just invested in a box of the torpedoes. Every time I light one of them up, I feel like I have a religious experience. Simply divine!
RD of Colchester, VT
Absolutely one of the best cigars I've ever had. Just smoked the second one I've ever had. I'm a big fan of Cohiba but I must admit, this is a must for any cigar smoker. I'll be buying a box when I get home. I'm in the military and I'll have a box waiting for me upon my return. These will be one of my "me only" stashes.... Great job Rocky Patel for creating this wonderful smoke. Deserves every bit of the 95 rating. Happy smokin'.
NM of RALEIGH, NC
Very smooth cigar.... I have a hard time finding a good cigar and this is the best, finest cigar I have ever had.... I highly recommend to anyone who been wanting to try a cigar that's really good and it's worth the price....
CG of COLUMBIA, MO
If you have the extra green, wow, these are great cigars.
DB of Weatherford, TX
This is one of my favorites, flawless construction, gobs of smoke, very smooth with a complex flavor profile. It's always consistent. You can't go wrong with this one, and with CI's prices this one is a no-brainer.
JM of KENTWOOD, MI
The Decade is by far my favorite Rocky Patel, and I like almost all of them. Medium body but really packs a lot of flavor. Nice draw and copious amounts of smoke. If you didn't like it the first time, try one again and I'll bet you change your mind.
RR of MASSILLON, OH
Rocky Patel Decade is the best cigar I've ever had! Wow, the flavors of some kind of semi sweet cherry or black cherry mixed in with woodsy creamy notes is the best description I can come up with. Decades are better than any Padron cigar for WAY less money. Save your money and splurge on a box of these bad boys, you won't be disappointed! Peace.
AH of HUGO, MN
Hands down one of my favorite cigars. First third is ok, but the second and third is where it pulls at my heart strings.
CM of Harlingen, TX
Smooth, wonderful flavor, even burning, consistent. I like this cigar better than rated higher smokes. By far, this is my favorite cigar.
PR of LIVONIA, NY
The only cigar I have ever felt the need to review on here. Bar none the best RP I have had the pleasure of lighting up. The best Rocky has put out there. Nothing more needs to be said.
JN of Sheppard Afb, TX
Love the Decade. Medium bodied, flavorful and smooth.
MC of NORTHFORD, CT
I'm fairly new to cigars, so this is the first Rocky Patel I've ever smoked, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've sampled quite a few cigars over the past few months and this is one of my favorites. The burn was nice and slow and the draw was very good. Also it was much smoother than I expected. I got the 5" x 50's in a combo pack with the My Fathers. I only wish I had a bigger stick. I will definitely order these again.
DM of Washington, DC
I tried to love this cigar, as I did the old world reserve everyone raves about but these dark oscuro and samutra wrappers are not my thing at all, very harsh and void of flavor for me. After finishing a 5 pack of these decades the greatest downfall is even when sucking on them like a calf to an utter they go out every 5 seconds! I did not enjoy these at all but others seem to so... I'll stick to what I like. To each his own, right?
JL of Middle Village, NY
Hands down the best cigar I've smoked yet. Great taste and draw throughout. I just wish they made it in a sixty like my other Rocky favorite, the 1992. Keep 'em comin'!.
PR of Carver, MA
A fine cigar, with enough flavor to please many smokers. I was fortunate to receive one of these in a sampler, which will lead to a box purchase. As with the Diesel, and Fortres, the smoke is so smooth that you don't notice the strength until it hits your stomach.
DM of Taylor, MI
I'm going to have to buck the love trend here on this cigar. I received two of them in a sampler and was expecting much much more. I didn't find it overly flavorful or unique. For the price point it's at this cigar should be special. I would take the LHC Core and/or LHC Oscuro Fuerte over this smoke ten times out of ten. Sorry Rocky........
BM of Portland, OR
I have to say I am a Rocky Patel fan, however I have to say I am disappointed in these smokes. Maybe I just got a bad box. Still never had so many issues with the uneven burn, and got a few sticks with really tight draws.
On the other hand I really enjoyed the earthy, and leathery notes, Still a fan of Rocky Patel, but these were as i said a little disappointing.
MM of Holton, MI
This smoke packs a real punch with flavors of bourbon, oak wood, blackened pepper and mild hickory sweetness. A good companion to a spicy cajun dinner. The heaviest cigar I have smoked yet, and not for the mild hearted.
PW of Charlestown, RI
IMHO, this is the best Rocky Patel I have smoked. I don't normally like Medium bodied cigars, but the Decade was the exception. The mild start, earth cream, perfect balance, and the medium ending spice had me wanting to light up another one. I would recommend this cigar to anyone.
LL of Round Rock, TX
Wonderful draw, well balance flavor. I tasted hints of coffee, chocolate, and a tiny bit of spice! Highly recommend.
BB of Herndon, VA
First off, I am a huge fan of Rocky Patel and the cigars he puts out. I loved the decade, but what do you expect from a cigar company that consistently has cigars in a 90+ rating range. Smoked a torpedo and found it to be a little tough to draw and has been sitting in my humidor for well over a month. I will buy these again, and would recommend them to anyone and everyone.
RH of Pittsburgh, PA
The Decade is a really nice smoke. I would suppose it earns that 95 rating. They are smooth and strong without being bitter and harsh. It seems that Rocky gets it right again.
CS of Rock Springs, WY
I had a buddy give me one of these exquisite cigars!! The taste was excellent and the aroma when I pulled in on this cigar was almost like having a ladys perfume ease onto the scene and tickle my nostrils. Another great piece by Rocky Patel.
TA of Mabank, TX
THIS (torpedo) is what a cigar should be! Exceptional. Rocky is a cigar God!
TA of hebron, KY
I started smoking RP about four years ago originally tried the vintage 90. I've enjoyed about 28 of Rocky's 30+ arsenal (including indian tabac) and the Decade is truly his finest blend. If there is a cigar deserving 95+ rating this is it.
AC of Boston, MA
Without question, one of my favorite smokes... there is never a bad time to light up one of Rocky's Decades. One of our fellow cigar-smokers from Casa Grande, AZ wrote another review suggesting that this cigar goes well with single-malts... well I like Decades... and I like Single Malt Scotch... but this cigar deserves a healthy cup of strong coffee. Sure, take a VSG, an Opus, an Edge or the like and pour a couple drams of a nice peaty, Islay Scotch and you will have something special... but light up one of Rocky's Decades with some nice coffee and you will have something divine. What a fantastic experience.
JK of Chicago, IL
I don't always smoke cigars, but when I do... I smoke Decades. Stay lit my friends.
C of CCamarillo,, CA
What a GREAT cigar. Had one while sitting on the beach, even with high winds it burned slowly and evenly. One of the best cigars I have ever smoked.
BR of Raleigh, NC
I received the RP Decade in the CI Cigar of the Month shipment and after letting it sleep for a few days in the humidor, broke it out with a fine single malt whiskey.
The Rocky Patel Decade may just be the best cigar I have ever experienced! The 95 rating it received from Cigar Aficionado was fully justified.
JE of Casa Grande, AZ
I LOVE ROCKY PATEL DECADES!!!!!!
WC of STERLING, VA
