601 La Bomba Nuclear

07-19-2014, 07:16 PM

Short review on the 601 La Bomba Nuclear Cigar 6 x 50 Toro. Pretty decent cigar. Draw and burn proved to be stellar with no attention needed. Razor sharp burn line was impressive. Very creamy, strong dark tobacco flavors with a savory edge. Not much sweetness and no real obvious changes. Still, a pretty good tasting cigar with quite a kick. Flavor remained good right to the nub with no fading or bitterness at all. Nice dark potent Dark Natural/ Maduro like taste with all the usual flavors except not much sweetness. The savory, salty element replaces that and was actually pretty good. Will keep at least a fiver on hand. Recommended!

Interesting review.....probably the only 601 I did not like! The blues are still top five all time (Thanks Mac).

Nice review! I've only had the Napalm so far and really enjoyed it. I'll keep a look out for these for sure.

Thanks for the review. I, too, did not like these AT ALL. Now the Warhead Maduro...LOVED it. Go figure.

Thanks for the review, the Nuclear is always on hand in my humidor, I also love the Atom size of the 601 La Bomba.

Thanks for the review. I have only had the Atomic size so far, but loved it. Definitely will be a repeat buy and encouraged me to want to try other 601's.

I don't think I could ever smoke this cigar based solely on the name.

Kinda agree that the name is a bit cheesy and the band could be a more appealing. Was attracted to the visual of that nice, rustic looking cigar with that 'fuse' just hanging there. You know how little boys love to blow sh#t up!

Pretty darn good aroma and looked great, too! Butt kicker of a stick!
