The Rocky Patel Super Ligero is one of four new lines launched by Rocky Patel Premium Cigars at the 2014 IPCPR Trade Show. The Super Ligero is a cigar that features a multinational blend designed to pack a punch.
The company says the Super Ligero incorporates a hybrid seed into their blend. This cigar comes out of the El Paraiso factory in Honduras.
The Rocky Patel Super Ligero joins the Rocky Patel Decade Cameroon, Rocky Patel Prohibition, and Rocky Patel Catch 22 as cigars released by the company at the trade show.
Pricing was told to us between $7.00 and $8.00.

The Super Ligero is reminiscent of the discontinued 1961, but it has a bigger kick to it. Peppery goodness and the aroma is an attention grabber. Had people sitting around me asking what it was and telling me how good it smells. Not always a Rocky fan but this one will be well worth the money
