601 Blue Box-pressed Maduro

I can't believe I had to go back as far as 2010 to find reviews of this beauty; then again, "601" is not searchable, so I had to get creative.

My theory is that sometimes, there's a cigar so damn good that everyone wants to keep it for themselves.

This one was part of lottery winnings, generously supplied by Hem (Bill).

First thing, this felt like an iron bar in the hand, it is so dense. Second, the delicious, intense scent of dark chocolate, the kind with 88%+ cocoa content. Spicy too, but not in an "in your face" way; warm spices. I have to believe this was well-aged, since the strength was there but not overpowering like some of Pepin's blends.

A truly wonderful smoke; What are the other 601s like?
