Made by Rocky Patel

Info:

Rolled by only the finest craftsmen in Esteli, Nicaragua, Indian Tabac Split Decision features 3 different barber pole styled, toro sized cigars.

Indian Tabac is one of the most sought after brands, having developed a dedicated following over the past 10+ years. Created by Rocky Patel, the cigar industry’s most popular blender, all Indian Tabac lines maintain a quality and consistency seldom found in premium brands today.

The story of Split Decision is an interesting one. In 2007, Rocky was busy working on his Indian Tabac (ITC) 10th Anniversary blend at Tabacalera Fernadez with the help of A.J. Fernandez. After days of blending, the pair had developed a remarkable filler and binder blend, but could not decide on a wrapper. Having tried everything from candela to Habano-seed wrappers, all of which tasted amazing, they could not make up their minds. So as a joke the two rolled a cigar with all four of the wrappers on the table (candela, habano, broadleaf maduro and Connecticut). After sharing a laugh as to how unbalanced the cigar would probably taste, both Rocky and A.J. were pleasantly surprised with the results - they had a perfect blend! Despite the cost and time required to utilize such a large variety of different wrappers on one cigar, Rocky refused to waste this amazing concoction, and so Indian Tabac Split Decision was born. Due to obvious reasons, this cigar is made in extremely limited quantities.

Choices available:

* The Double - a double barber pole featuring Habano and Connecticut wrappers
* The Quad - a quad barber pole featuring Habano, Connecticut, broadleaf maduro and candela wrappers
* The Triple - a triple barber pole featuring Habano, Connecticut and broadleaf maduro wrappers

Nice stick, 45min - 1 hrs smoke.
Hard ash as you can see from the pictures, quite sweet tasting till the end- no bitterness emerged.
Worth a try, I enjoyed smoking it.
