  Rocky Patel Vintage 2003 Cameroon, released in 2011 with an 8 year old Cameroon wrapper, was an instant success for the company. This was not surprising as Rocky Patel’s previous Vintage Series releases have all been great hits. It all starts with the excellent craftsmanship of these cigars, and the aged wrapper giving some great leather and wood flavors, with sweet and creamy notes, and a dry finish.
