Default Goviado Chico from Guillen Cigars

I got this stick in a bomb from yourchoice (Joel).

Humidor time: I believe Joel got this stick in a GB a few months ago

Prelight: The wrapper is nice and smooth, with minimal veins. Prelight draw is easy, tasting of cedar and spice.

Burn: The burn was straight with that nice "welt" along the burn line. Ash was nice and solid. I think I could have done an ash stand with this cigar if I hadn't been online with my phone and worried about ashing on it. Draw was moderate, and the burn time was about 35 minutes.

Flavor: This cigar started off a bit harsh, but quickly mellowed into a nice cedar flavor with floral hints and a nice spice kick.

Summary: I've been wanting to try one of the Guillen blends for a while now, and this stick was worth the wait. Excellent flavor, perfect burn, what more could you ask for? OK, I need to get me some of these in a bigger vitola...
