Rocky Patel’s Green Machine.

Rocky Patel’s cigars have been a mainstay among aficionados since the cigar boom of the ‘90s. His premiums were unlike anything the world had seen before, as they were bold, flavorful, small-batch blends that were unique and unrivaled as far as quality is concerned. The brand that put Rocky on the map was known was ITC, a storied line-up of premiums that sold faster than shops could keep them in stock.

Like all good things, the brand was discontinued a few years ago - but popular demand ensured its revival. Emerald is ITC’s most unique offering, as it features a green candela wrapper with a blend of Honduran binders and long-fillers. With its hints of earth, black pepper, some natural sweetness, and a slight floral note, this cigar is one of Rocky’s finest creations to date.
