Guillermo Leon 6x60

A massive 6x60 cigar with a clean foot, tight cap, and densely filled with tobacco, this cigar had an impressive draw.  As it's size and wrapper color might have implied, it is a heavy flavoured cigar consisting of creamy raisin sweetness, honey notes, toffee, and white pepper spice.  A nasal exhale revealed two interesting properties, an inviting floral bouquet and ammonia, which can be translated as having high aging potential.

I mostly shy away from such large cigars as the size for the most part represents inconsistency of flavours during the smoking, however this one performs well beyond my expectations.  A word to the wise though, not high in nicotine, this cigar is one of those to be enjoyed after a nice dinner.
