Rocky Patel Edge 20th Anniversary Sixty

Description

Legacy begins at the moment of origin. 20 years ago, Rocky Patel set out to create the boldest, most multifaceted cigar he ever imagined. The leaves that would one day become one of the most beloved cigar collections of the last two decades took root, and the industry was never the same. Two years later, the Edge was born. To honour these twenty years of innovation, Rocky introduced the sharpest cigar we’ve ever had the pleasure of cutting – The Edge 20th Anniversary.

The Edge 20th Anniversary features a contoured surface worthy of a fighter plane, and a core component that would make even the staunchest aficionados ripe with praise. Showcasing a unique blend of Nicaraguan and Honduran excellence, the Edge is highlighted by its rigid, unwavering outer shell. Boasting a rich Sumatra wrapper from the fields of Ecuador, aged for over 10 years, the Edge is a cigar that isn’t just well-rounded, it’s downright aerodynamic.

From every angle, every perspective … The Edge 20th Anniversary is a clear-cut masterpiece. Experience one today and become part of the legend that’s 20 years and counting. Made using aged tobacco (10 years). Size: 6 x 60. Note: these are now shipping in plain packaging.

About Rocky Patel Cigars

In an industry built on name recognition and reputation, Rocky Patel’s passion has brought his luxury brand to heights unseen by most boutique cigar manufacturers. His hard work and long hours have been paying off in big ways. A survivor of the cigar boom, Patel has outlasted his competition with unrivaled persistence on his quest for perfection. With a grueling travel schedule, office responsibilities and production, Rocky still maintains the enthusiasm that he has had since day one. As he travels the world, putting his cigars in the mouths of his consumers, his passion extends beyond the retailer, allowing his customers the experience of meeting the man behind their favorite smokes. Rocky Patel has created a company that outshines even those created by multimillion dollar corporations, and he’s doing it one customer at a time.

In the early 1990s, Rocky Patel lived and worked in Los Angeles as an entertainment and product liability lawyer. Through a friend, Rocky was introduced to cigars and became instantly fascinated by them. He joined the Grand Havana Club in Los Angeles as one of its founding members. While dabbling in various investment ventures, Rocky was approached with a business plan to manufacture cigars. It was still the early days of the cigar boom, and Rocky was still apprehensive. However, the investment was made, and the inaugural Indian Tabac cigars rolled in Honduras began to flourish on the American market.

Often heralded as the hardest working man in the business, Rocky Patel is married to his arduous schedule. He rarely sees his home and headquarters in Naples, Florida. Yearly, he logs more than 300 days on the road and over 150,000 miles. He has once been in 600 cities within 750 days! However, the time on the road is worth it, considering that in every town, Rocky strives to win over new customers to his lifestyle brand. This practice is an extension of Patel’s plan to get his cigars in the hands of as many people possible. In the ‘mom and pop’ world of tobacconists, it is important for Rocky to share his enthusiasm for his stellar product. That enthusiasm is often contagious, and it shows in the faces and attitudes of consumers worldwide.

While meeting new people everywhere he goes, Rocky also hosts Factory Tour trips to his facilities in Honduras and Nicaragua for cigar aficionados worldwide. He wants to give his consumers a ‘one-of-a-kind experience’ by witnessing firsthand the passion behind his cigar manufacturing operations. The meticulous labour and quality control witnessed by his guests is translated into a real understanding of the dedication and time it takes to make his cigars. Rocky also makes sure that every guest gets to smoke the finished product. This is just one of the myriad ways in which he gains devoted consumers for life.
