Default Goviado Black Label Petite Corona



I purchased a box of these early October of this year, so they have been in the humidor around 2 months.

Goviado Black PC

Vitola: Petite Corona
Size: 4 x 40
Wrapper: Nicaraguan Rosado
Binder: Nicaraguan
Filler: Long Filler Nicaraguan


Appearance:
Mottled medium brown wrapper, with a decent but not perfect cap.

Flavor Notes:
Woodsy leather undertone, creamy on the palate. Sharp acrid ammonia flavor on finish and through nose. Slight hint of spiciness like black pepper.

Aroma:
Aroma is nice, like cedar.

Overall Impression: This is a good size for those of us who deal with frigid temperatures here in the north. Unfortunately these little cigars have a lot of nice flavors that are drowned by the acrid ammonia flavor that is present. It is safe to say these need more time. I'm hoping they'll turn out to be the cigars I expected in a few months.
