"Dissapointing"
Rocky Patel Evolution Lancero
Taste was ok, but it has a horrible draw. I had to relight this 3 times before I finally gave up

"A fighter"
Evolution By Rocky Patel Robusto
Great aroma and outside construction. Thick, rich smoke. However, it refuses to stay lit. Tunnels and goes out constantly. It fights tooth and nail and ruins the experience. Love lanceros, but not this one.

Very good looking stick, and that's about it. Flavor is just ok, when you can get a draw from it and even more so keeping it lit. Very poorly constructed stick. I was actually looking forward to spending some time puffing on a RP tonight.

"Good looking cigar"
Rocky Patel Evolution Toro
I finally got around to lighting up one of these puppys, Like I said they look pretty good to me but then again I'm a sucker for the darker cigars. I find them to be medium bodied and full flavored and a bit sweeters than expected and I have no complants at all. More than likly to buy more if and when the price is right, I can't really say much for the consistency of them cause I only smoked one so far however I'll bet the rest are just as good or even better with a visit to the humidor for a while.

"Overpriced, but a good smoke in the 2-3$ range"
Rocky Patel Evolution Robusto
The advertisement is that it is a full flavored cigar. I feel this is untrue. This is a one dimensional smoke through and through, with the exact same flavor profile you would expect to find out of your standard yardgar. A little cedar with a touch of sweetness, a little peppery zing, creamy...not bad, but that's all it ever was. It's one of those smokes that you would hear someone say, you know, "it just had a nice crisp tobacco taste." At 2.00 a stick, which is what I got them for, its a great value. Anything over 3.00 and your paying too much. Give it a shot, just pay the right price. Not bad, but don't spend 4-5$ for a 1-2$ cigar.

"Frustrating smoke. Fill your lighter first."
Rocky Patel Evolution Lancero
OK - I received five of these in a sampler. So far I've gone through four and have yet to find one I can keep lit. They are some of the most poorly rolled cigars I have ever tried to smoke. You wont even get through a half inch until the burn goes wrong. There's nothing in the taste that redeems the poor performance either. I wouldn't give the last one away.

"Good flavor, way too loose"
Evolution By Rocky Patel Robusto
I bought a box of these based on the high quality patel cigars I've had in the past. The flavor is exceptional, but it's so loose the cigar tunnels, which I'd never had happen on a lancero before. It's a shame, this would have been a great value otherwise.

"more like de-evolution"
Evolution By Rocky Patel Robusto
This cigar had the worst draw of any brand I have ever smoked. Canoed on two different sticks. Burning issues about halfway through. Flavor was ok, but all the lighting and touching up ruined it for me.

"Took this one duck hunting"

Thinking that a rocky p would pair nicely with a fun filled day with the guys. Oh how wrong I was. The stick would not stay lit for more than a few minutes. Everytime a group of mallards would come in and I had to set-er-down, the stick would go out. Finally threw it away. Rocky, if you evolve into this im going to have to adapt and find another cigar.
