Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure Number 2 2017 (HRW)

[Lucass111]

When I hear Hoyo the first thought is a number 2. Its the very first cuban cigar I ever had. Was hooked after 1. My experience with the no 2 have been very consistent. If I'm looking for an easy and mild smoke I go straight for the Hoyo no 2. It's a great cigar for all.

 

The cold draw was more firm than I like. I had to bust out the perfect draw just to be safe. The first third was a sweet cream bomb. It was so delicious. I got cream, cream, and more cream.

 

The second third the cream was still there but the sweetness started to fade. I got a bit of nuttiness showing up. Definitely got some twang in there.

 

The last third had hints of wood and nuts. It got a bit hot on me which affected the flavors but it was still very good. A very consistent smoke. I'm rarely disappointed afterwards when I have a Hoyo no 2. I will give this a 90 out of a 100. It was everything I was expecting.

In Your opinion, did the dark wrapper affect the taste?

I can't say for certain but it was extra sweet!
