Platinum Limited Edition
When Platinum was first introduced in 2013, Rocky Patel couldn’t decide between using a Connecticut broadleaf or an Ecuadorian Habano-seed wrapper. Eventually, the Maduro won out, but Rocky wasn’t finished with the Habano-wrapped blend! He later released the Platinum Limited Edition an offshoot brand rationed to small batches of Robusto, Toro and Torpedo. The Nicaraguan fillers and San Andrés binder are identical between the original Platinum and the LE, which means that all the difference comes from the Limited Edition’s lush, reddish Habano wrapper. The robust Limited Edition blend smacks of black pepper with hints of barnyard earthiness and a subtle sweetness. Look for these gorgeous cigars packaged in radiant black boxes at your favorite tobacconist.
Sizes
Robusto (5 ½ x 50), Toro (6 ½ x 52), Torpedo (6 1/8 x 52)
