Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Juniors 4×38

ocky Patel Vintage 1999 Junior Cigars - Tin of 5 / Brick of 50

Get ready to indulge in timeless flavor with the Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Junior cigar, a small-format smoke that delivers the same elegance and craftsmanship as its larger counterparts. Years of patience and preparation go into each stick, featuring Dominican and Nicaraguan longleaf tobaccos aged a full 8 years to achieve perfect balance. The star of this blend is the 7-year-aged Connecticut Shade wrapper, one of the smoothest and most refined leaves on the market, lending each cigar its signature golden-brown glow and creamy profile.

As with every cigar in Patel’s acclaimed Vintage series, the 1999 Junior is expertly handcrafted for consistency and quality. Despite its compact 4" x 38 size, it’s packed with flavor, offering a medium-bodied profile that opens with notes of crisp cedar, warm nutmeg, and silky cream. Aromatic floral hints enhance the smoke, while evolving nuances of fresh hay, earthy richness, vanilla, Irish whisky, and a gentle touch of red pepper spice keep the palate intrigued from start to finish. Smooth draws and excellent construction ensure this smaller cigar performs like a full-sized luxury stick.

These Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Juniors come packaged in a convenient tin of 5, offering both protection and portability. The durable metal tin helps preserve freshness, shielding the cigars from damage and humidity fluctuations, while making it easy to carry a ready-to-smoke sampler wherever you go.

Perfect for when time is short but only the best will do, the Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Junior is equally at home with a morning coffee, an afternoon break, or a celebratory toast. Comparable to refined shade-wrapped cigars like the Montecristo White or Gran Habano Connecticut #1, the Vintage 1999 Junior proves that size doesn’t limit sophistication. Light one up and enjoy a premium smoke experience fit for any occasion.

San Cosme Mezcal is a spirit made from the espadín agave plant, produced in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico. The production process is an art: During harvesting, the agave leaves are separated from the center of the plant. The agave hearts are then cooked underground in the traditional way, in pits that serve as ovens. This is where the aromas of the soil and smoke are absorbed, giving the mezcal its characteristic flavor.
The cooked agave is then ground using a stone mill, usually pulled by a horse or ox. Spontaneous fermentation occurs in open wooden barrels. Distillation is carried out in a copper still, a copper pot, over an open fire.

Aroma: Smoky with traces of caramel, wood and earth.
Taste: Pleasantly smoky and warm with a mixture of smoked agave and leather.

A solid cocktail choice, this 100% agave Tequila has rich, rounded vanilla and zingy peppery notes followed by a dry cocoa accent on the finish. The bottle is a stunner, with its yellow, red and black Day of the Dead graphic that's meant to be frozen to bring out additional thermochromic details. (It's a bit of overkill—the bottle is plenty eye-catching at room temperature.)

Food Pairings: A Culinary Adventure

The versatility of José Cuervo Tradicional Reposado makes it an excellent companion to a variety of dishes. Its smooth, slightly sweet profile complements spicy Mexican cuisine, such as tacos al pastor or enchiladas with mole sauce. The subtle oak notes also pair well with grilled meats, adding a touch of complexity to the meal.  

For a delightful cheese pairing, consider a mature Manchego. Its nutty, slightly salty character balances the sweetness of the tequila, creating a harmonious flavour combination. A creamy goat's cheese, with its tangy notes, also provides a lovely contrast, enhancing the tequila's subtle spice.

Cigar Pairing: A Moment of Refinement

For those who enjoy a fine cigar, José Cuervo Tradicional Reposado offers a sophisticated pairing. The tequila's smooth, oak-infused character complements cigars with medium to full bodies. Consider a cigar with notes of cedar, spice, or a touch of sweetness.

A Montecristo No. 4, with its balanced flavour profile, would be an excellent choice. The cigar's earthy notes and subtle sweetness harmonise with the tequila's agave and oak. Alternatively, a Partagas Serie D No. 4, with its robust spice, offers a bolder pairing, enhancing the tequila's complexity.
