Rocky Patel has spawned so many successes out of the original The Edge cigar it’s no longer surprising when he offers yet another doorway into the world of flavor and value they provide, this time with The Edge Fumas Habano. A few of us remember a time when Rocky Patel was just a bit player in a much larger game (Indian Tabac anyone?) but once The Edge starting hitting humidors like an incoming missile full of power and flavor the jig was up. Now you can enjoy that same juicy character time and again with these affordable beauts. Stuffed full of mixed filler culled from the regular The Edge sticks and finished with a sultry Habano wrapper, you can’t go wrong here.
If your mouth starts watering the moment you pull one of these sturdy vitolas away from its bundled brethren you’re not alone. All of the crisp tobaccos flavors and warm spices you expect are hidden beneath the sturdy, toothy exterior leaf. Each stick yields a bit to pressure, but it is uniform throughout and there’s no evidence of shoddy construction in either the draw or the smoking. You’ll want to puff The Edge Fumas slowly to allow the silky smoke plenty of time to extract each drop of cocoa and earth and cream it provides to your palate and you can expect each Toro to yield at least a solid hour of enjoyment. It’s an experience to repeat as often as necessary.
Even those aficionados who don’t find much interest in bundled cigars will discover plenty to celebrate with The Edge Fumas Habano. For less than two bucks apiece you can have a steady cache of delish smokes ready to pair with anything from a cheap whiskey at a cookout to an expensive craft beer during solitary moments of reflection. Go for it.
