Penamil Oro N° 6
Origin: Canary Islands
Size: 6.00 X 42
Wrapper: Natural

From Qios.net:
Penamil is a genuine Cuban-Canarian child. The tobacco trader José Lorenzo Penamil emigrated to Cuba and married the daughter of a Cuban tabaquero also by the last name of Penamil. Returning to La Palma, he began producing the cigar that later on became so famous. The Penamil cigars are appreciated for their flexible and mild texture as well as their out-standing workmanship. In addition, they have a well-balanced composition of their blend (Brazil, Domincan Republic, Havana), in which aroma and strength combine with a pleasant burning process (Mexican binder, Connecticut wrapper). Moreover, the Oro series has an impressive design.

Notes:

Well I don't know about an "impressive design". It was a solid well made corona cigar, and it was really good. It was definetly on the mellow side, but it had a lot of flavor to it. The word that comes to mind is, smooth. This thing had flawless construction, a perfect even burn, nice easy draw, and lots of smoke. Smoking this stick was very easy, no hassles with relighting or flaky ash, it was perfect. I don't usually like a mild cigar, but there was something quite relaxing in this thing.

This cigar was a gift from my friend, Angel Francisco Ros Llopis. Angel lives in Spain and is a collector of cigar bands. He has a very impressive site showcasing his extensive collection.
