The Big Johnny delivers a medium strength smoking experience with notes of earth, spice, and coffee, offering a bold and robust flavour profile of dark chocolate and espresso with some earthy undertones. At 8 gigantic inches and carrying a massive 66 ring gauge, this monstrosity can easily take up to 3-4 hours to smoke, making it medium-full in body and flavor. The blend is actually based on the original Leaf by Oscar Maduro cigar, which began as a local favorite at the Leaf and Bean shop in Pittsburgh.
Handcrafted with precision in Honduras, this cigar exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship and remarkable flavours for which Oscar Valladares is renowned. The blend was inspired by one of Island Jim's regular customers at his Leaf & Bean shop in Pittsburgh, reflecting the brand's collaborative spirit and connection to cigar culture. It is covered in an extra tobacco leaf that is surrounded by an organic band, with inside packing a premium blend of Honduran filler and binder tobaccos.
Big Johnny is simple, easy to smoke, and just plain enjoyable, whether you are a novice or an experienced connoisseur, pairing well with dark beer or coffee and burning slowly and cool. 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 sizable meal.
