Rocky Patel Sapphire Sixty

The Rocky Patel Sapphire Sixty is the 6 x 60 of Rocky Patel's Sapphire, the widest of its four sizes: a box-pressed, medium-bodied blend built around a lingering, Cuban-style sweetness, with coffee bean, espresso, caramel, sweet spice and hints of chocolate, per Rocky Patel.

Sapphire follows Gold Label and Emerald in Rocky Patel's jewel-themed releases, per Cigar Journal, and reached stores in June 2026. Rocky Patel says it spent more than a year and over 100 blend variations on it, drawing on tobacco grown as far back as 2014. halfwheel lists a dark Mexican San Andrés wrapper, two binders from Estelí, Nicaragua and Honduras' Jamastrán Valley, and Nicaraguan filler from Condega, Estelí and Jalapa, all rolled at TAVICUSA in Estelí. Boxes hold 20, in the octagonal box Sapphire shares with Emerald and Gold Label.

Ratings for the blend

Cigar Insider scored the 6½ x 52 Sapphire Toro 90 points in July 2026, finding rich wood, maraschino cherry, dark chocolate and ground clove, and halfwheel gave the Corona Gorda 88, opening on creaminess, earth and black pepper.

How to enjoy it

A 60 ring holds more filler under the same wrapper, so the Sixty usually smokes longer and cooler than the Toro; plan on a long evening. Many cutters stop at 60 ring gauge, so check yours; our cutter guide compares the options. Rocky Patel publishes no pairing, so as a house suggestion, pour a wheated bourbon or an aged rum from our bar. More big rings are in Gordo & Big Ring Cigars, and every size is on our Rocky Patel Sapphire page.
