The Rocky Patel Freedom brand of cigars from Santa Clara received a maduro version this year, now available. Handcrafted at Rocky’s Tavicusa factory in Esteli, the Rocky Patel Freedom Maduro is a powerful Nicaraguan Puro. It is made with aged Nicaraguan tobaccos for the filler and binder, followed by a flawless and dark Nicaraguan Habano Oscuro wrapper. This blend of tobaccos offers up notes of nuts, espresso, cocoa and just a touch of spice. The Rocky Patel Freedom Maduro is available in three classic sizes:

• 5.50- by 50-inch Robusto (Box of 20)
• Six- by 52-inch Toro (Box of 20)
• Six- by 60-inch Sixty (Box of 20)
