Step into the Winner's Circle with Rocky!
2026 marks the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Horse and Rocky Patel is celebrating in thoroughbred fashion with Rocky Patel Year of the Horse. This limited-edition box of 10 will only have 6,000 released, so don’t wait too long if you want a box in your stable of premium handmades.
Wrapped in a majestic Mexican San Andres leaf and expertly handcrafted with premium Nicaraguan and Honduran long-fillers Year of the Horse is saddled with a Nicaraguan binder. Grab your torch and enjoy the nuance of white chocolate, caramel, espresso, and sweet spice, delivered with a medium to full-bodied profile. This Churchill box-pressed vitola is one Horse that doesn’t require a trip to Churchill Downs to appreciate!
Great news! Rocky Patel Year of the Horse has received a 91-point rating with the review noting: "Long and box-pressed, this inky Churchill has a superb draw and fairly even burn. It’s an herbal, chewy smoke with a big note of licorice, balanced by sweeter aspects of almond and light chocolate. The finish is somewhat nutty."
