The Rocky Patel Platinum is one of a plethora of cigars the company is introducing at IPCPR 2013. It uses a Habano Oscuro wrapper and will be offered in three sizes: Robusto ($10.30), Toro ($10.80) and Torpedo ($11.00). The box-pressed cigar is described as medium to full-bodied and is made at Tabaclera Villa Cuba S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua.
