Patina Red Pill is the brand’s first all box-pressed release. Rolled at NACSA in Nicaragua, it marries a dark Mexican San Andrés Oscuro wrapper with a sturdy Connecticut Broadleaf binder and select Nicaraguan & U.S. fillers. The result is a densely layered, full-flavored profile—cocoa and espresso over peppery earth, toasted oak, and a touch of graham sweetness—delivered in slow-burning box-pressed formats. Available in Robusto 5×54 BP and Toro 6×54 BP, 20-count boxes, with typical retail around $13–$15. If you’ve been waiting for the fuller side of Patina, this is it.
