Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto from 12 : Ode to the 47 to 52 gauge review week

[Cmelle]

Bought 15 of these a few years ago in the cardboard 3 packs. 

Nice brown wrapper. Thin and oily. 

The cigar is packed pretty tight and has a tight draw. The burn was good though and ash held on nicely in 2 perfect chunks. 

In the first third i get a nice cedar note with cream and a nice milk coffee. I also get a touch of salt. I love a touch of salt in a cigar 

Just after the first third, I get a nice crack down one side. Probably because of the thin wrapper and the tight bunch. It didn't really effect the cigar at all though. The cigar still burnt straight down without a hiccup.

In the second third the draw opens up a little more and I get some nice floralness (if that's a word).

Touch of burnt sugar towards the end and a nice salty butter. 

Got a nice mix of flavours in this little cigar. If the draw wasn't as tight, it really would've been one to remember.
