601 Habano Oscuro (Green Label) La Punta - Get one!

**islcigar** · 01-26-2009, 11:09 AM

Logan37 - I agree 601's are great. Still a sleeper for many. I'll put the 601 Maduro up against any of R.P. Vinatge or Decade.....more pronounce flavor, rich, deep and a good value.

The new line extension Cubao is awsome too. A must try.
Lancero / No.2 / No.6 are my favorites in this line.

I am smoking the 601 Red (corona gorda). Many will say its not as complex as the other 601 blends (though thats one draw back of some Nicaragua cigars) ......... either way, for a full flavor cigar with a strong Cuban petigree, you can not go wrong.

I'm liking the Cubao's very much myself. Have yet to run across the lancero size at the local, but I'll agree the No.2 is a fine smoke.

I smoked the 601 at my local lounge last night. I liked it so much that I made my friend buy one when we were leaving and I bought a 601 blue label to try. I'll try the red label next time I'm there.

Just finished smoking a Savinelli Series Y RyR Toro - Tasty cigar, great burn, awesome draw, plenty of smoke... full of flavors with a slight sweetness, woody aroma and some others I can't put my finger on.

Bought a tin of CAO Italia Piccolos and tried one last night after they sat in the humi for a few days. Draw felt tight but I still got plenty of smoke (someone explain that to me). Unfortunately, the hot burn from the small size overpowered the classic italia flavor and it wasn't very enjoyable, a little harsh. I'm gonna let them sit for a few weeks and see what happens. As small as they are you could still make them last 40 minutes if you wanted too...I wanted them to work but it ain't looking good...

Tobacos Baez by Don Pepin Garcia.
Totally different from standard Pepin lines. This is the first time Pepin is using a Conneticut wrapper in any of his products. (though its pretty dark ). I'm liking it!
