Rocky Patel OSG: On Second Thought...

After my first review of a Rocky Patel "Original Sun Grown" corona a few months ago, I'm returning with an update.

I've had a couple more OSG coronas since then, and have noticed that they maintain their quality for only about 2 inches, i.e. you are only getting a half-smokeable cigar.

However, at today's prices (dropped recently to $39.95 for bundle of 18 at CI; winning bids as low as $28.00 on cigarbid.com) you might decide that half a cigar is worth the price. Looking at it this way, a Rocky Patel OSG corona is a great 20-minute smoke, and now quite affordable. Just remember to toss out the second half, before it turns bitter and charcoaly and ruins your memory of the previous 20 minutes.
