The Rocky Patel Fifty cigar is the crowning achievement of the Rocky Patel portfolio. Brought out as a short run cigar to celebrate Rocky's Fiftieth birthday, this high-end stick effortlessly made Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 of 2012. Handmade in Nicaragua, the Fifty boasts an Ecuadorian Habano Oscuro wrapper leaf and a secret blend of filler and binder tobacco. The end result is a silky smooth premium smoking experience that's sure to please any connoisseur.

This top-notch stick is a great choice for any experienced smoker with a well-developed palate that wants something out of the ordinary. It is most definitely a connoisseur-level cigar and not something for beginners. Bourbon and coffee pair nicely with the Rocky Patel Fifty, and it makes a terrific special occasion or Friday night smoke. The Fifty is very limited—2000 boxes by size. Similar cigars might be the Rocky Patel Decade or the Padron 1964. This is most definitely a must-try for any serious aficionado and a centerpiece in the Rocky Patel collection.
