Proceeds from the NYTA Rocky Patel Empire are being donated to the New York Tobacconist Association to fund the organization’s efforts to help cigar shops in New York.

The newest Alec Bradley Fine & Rare release is made up of not one, but two different cigars in the same 11-count box: 10 of the main cigar name Fine and Rare BC-(13)4EV and a single cigar named BC-(13)4EV-B that is packaged in its own coffin.
