Rocky Patel Year of the Dragon 2024 Shipping to U.S. Stores This Week
There are three different Rocky Patel Year of the Dragon cigars, the final one to be released will begin shipping to stores this week. Most importantly, it’s the only one that is going to American retailers.
This particular cigar is the Rocky Patel Year of the Dragon 2024 Toro, a 6 1/2 x 52 toro extra that has an MSRP of $35. All three cigars have the same blend: a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over two binders from Connecticut—one of them is broadleaf—and fillers from the Condega, Estelí and Jalapa regions of Nicaragua as well as the Jamastran Valley in Honduras. Each is made at Tabacalera Villa Cuba S.A., the company’s factory in Estelí, Nicaragua.
There are two other cigars: one sold at international stores and one sold at duty-free stores.
