601 Green Oscuro

Very unimpressed.



Ok, I'll try to be a LITTLE more descriptive.
Got a 5-pack of these recently and after reading some reviews I was looking forward to trying them, but as stated above, very unimpressed.
This cigar was for me, medium strength, and I suppose medium bodied. However the "body" was at times somewhat thin with a flavor twang I couldn't quite put my finger on at first. The burn was fine, never really needing any touch ups. I kept waiting for this cigar to morph into something I would enjoy, it just never did. As I hung in there waiting, it finally dawned on me what that flavor twang reminded me of.......it was similar to the flavor profile of the Remedios, so if you are a fan of those, the 601 might very well appeal to you.
I'll wait a bit and then give these another try. You never know, I could have gotten one that was just "off".

OR this could be the flavor profile they were going for in this cigar which just happens to be a flavor I don't care for. If that's the case, the good news is there will just be more of these for the rest of you guys!
