Rocky Patel’s master roller, Hamlet Paredes is known around the cigar world for his free-rolling style, which means he doesn’t use a mold or a press when he’s creating a masterpiece. A sleek tapered head and an unfinished shaggy foot make the Liberation a unique figurado that shows off Paredes’ skill as a roller. The Liberation’s Ecuadorian Habano Maduro wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and blended fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua combine to make the Liberation a medium-strength cigar. The Liberation is a full-bodied smoke with notes of earth and roasted coffee.
