    This cigar started out on the low end of ok for me. However, it got better and I think it is a good cigar. Not great but good.

    It is simple, easy to smoke, and just plain enjoyable, whether you are a novice or an experienced connoisseur. Due to the size, Big Johnny can get a bit strong at the end, so the best time to smoke it would likely be after a sizeable meal. It pairs well with dark beer or coffee and burns slow and cool.

    Hope you have some time on your hands this is about a 2-2.5 hour long stick!

    I found this to be an excellent cigar, much like the red labeled 6/60. Great quality and consistency in production, burn well with a nice light draw for its size. Taste was consistent even up to the end, it did not get as harsh as other large cigars, preffered it to the flathead 7/70.

    First, if you're not used to full flavored cigars. Have a meal first. Second, this isn't a 90 minute smoke. I really enjoyed this cigar. The burn srarted out kind of off, but corrected right away. The draw was excellent throughout, and the flavor was consistent. Another full bodied cigar i can add to my rotation
