"Does not burn well, moderate quality taste"

A bit diappointing. Lit it four times. Hints at rich, robust taste but not complex at all.

"an absolute dream to smoke"

the rocky patel vintage line is perhaps one of their best. I have tried thee 90, 92, and the 99 vintage sticks(smoked several of each vintage). While all are great smokes, i prefer the 90 vintage sticks the best. This stick is just so smooth, and mild, it is hard to believe you're smoking a cigar, as it is just so smooth and mild smoking. the draw is almost perfect, perhaps just on a scoche on the hard draw(and i mean damn near perfect). the flavor is full bodied, but mild. the burn is even and slow, with a tendency to extinguish if left for a few mins. the ash is firm, uniform, and drops after about an inch and a half. All in all, this well constructed, great tasting, mildly aromatic, and beautiful looking cigar is simply a dream to smoke. Wether you're sitting watching your favorite sporting event, or while socializing with friends in public. this cigar has found a place in my humidor until i can no longer get them.... wether you buy a single stick or an entire box, you just can't go wrong....

"Best blender, Period !!!!!! GO ROCKY"

This is my go to cigar.Rocky Patel is on fire,he is one of the best blenders,Period !!!!! 10 short years in the Biz, Cigar biz. Very smooth and flavorful.1990 blend is a very consistant cigar.I also am a big fan of his Old World Reserve Maduro, a must try for all.I would also like to put in a good word for the Decade as well.Spend the money these cigars I talk about are the best of the best. Now go smoke.

"EVERY DAY"

Received one of these in a sample pack and was fairly impressed. Nice even draw. Good smoke start to finish. I'm ordering a box for my daily rotation.

"Disappointing"

Expected much more after reading the reviews, I second everything LK from Houston said, so/so flavor, hard draw and burned very unevenly. Bought a box of vintage 1990 Robusto's as a gift and hope I do not have to return them.

"chocolatey"

This cigar can be described using one word chocolate. A very good cigar, smoking one of these is like eating a choclate bar. Take your time though or they burn uneven.

"full-body doesn't have to be painfull-"

Maybe it's me,but some of these full-bodied complex smokes are like smoking camel dung wrapped in a cataupa leave--than there are ones like FD ligero,La Aurora,and Rocky Patel vin 1990,to name a few.This cigar has a beatiful look,burn,lots of smoke-and a very smooth terrific full-bodied taste through-out.I will keep a couple of theese in the humidor.

"One of the best cigars you'll ever have."

Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 is probably the most consistent, well made cigar you'll ever experience! Its fast becoming my most favorite cigar. Everything about this cigar is excellent!

"Highly underrated!"

Excellent construction, box pressed, firm throughout, effortless draw, slightly sweet, spicy, tight and white ash. Fine smoke...!

"Best cigar thus far"

appearance and construction flawless, the box press and outstanding and stayed consistent throughout the smoke. pre draw was full of hints of cocoa, and coffee the anticipation was building. Draw was nice and effortless. The smoke right creamy and with a bit of an oily taste during the first and second thirds. This cigar does great with a cocktail and I chose to add some kahlua and I ve also paired it with a nice port and this seemed like the perfect pairing for me. I don t care for cigars that are spicy or peppery and this cigar is perfect medium bodied cigar.
