DP 601 Blue Prominente Maduro

[Thecatch83]

If anyone hasn't had the privilege of smoking this Don Pepin offering, you are missing out on one of the best maduro's I have ever smoked. I have a box of these in my coolidor and I am ordering two more in the Robusto size and Torpedo. Featuring a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper and Nicaraguan binder and filler, medium-to-full bodied smoke.

First 1/3, nice smooth pepper notes, slight hints of coffee. Construction was near perfect. No visible seems or veins, nice double cap, with a perfect draw.

Halfway through, stronger espresso, coffee, dark chocolate coming through. Burn is perfect, as is the draw. Incredible flavor profile. Final third is much of the same, with a stronger pepper finish than before. Worthy of 91+ ratings across the board....if you are a maduro lover, you have to give the 601 a try!

Great cigar and a solid review!

I've been burning through these a lot lately. Just in case you didn't know - Don Pepin does roll these, but they are sold by EO brands. Try the green label sometime - it's a different wrapper but just as tasty.

Nice review, I've always been a big fan of the green label, I'll have to add these to my shopping list.

The 601 Blue Box-Pressed Maduro is the #1 selling maduro cigar at my local B&M!

These sticks are fantastic. The value on these is through the roof imo. Really, the value on the entire 601 line is. I picked up my 601 blues for $4.25 a stick shipped. Not many sticks can touch it at that price.

One of my favorites. I have some with about 3 years age on them and they are smoking fantastic.
