Joya de Nicaragua Antaño Dark Corojo 4.5*52

@highsierrasmokin' asked me for my opinion, but I hadn't smoked one in years. So, I grabbed two. So far it is pretty good but it needs three months just like a regular Antaño 1970. I would list flavors, but that isn't as important as knowing that the statement " I taste Ligero" now makes complete sense.

The spice isn't a pepper blast. It is more like rolling a hot pepper across your tongue. The espresso and coffee notes are trying to come through, but the strength seems to be holding them back. I now understand why someone once wrote that they are beautiful cigars after a year. I could easily see this being a great candidate for a long nap.

Edit: There are days I smoke three medium/full and full cigars. This one is still kicking my ass and I haven't hit the last third. When JdN claims they put two ligero leaves in this cigar, I don't doubt it.
