Non Cuban today, Padron 1964 pyramid maduro.  I have been very disappointed in my last couple Padrons, but this one is fantastic. Creamy coffee, rich sweet cocoa, brown sugar.

ESP OCT 12 Punch DC. Started on the deck and now moved up to the balcony to continue enjoying this very good cigar watching Sunday Night Baseball.

Long day digging an electric fence for the dogs. Deserve a nice reward. LGC Paraiso (ELG Dec 14). I am more impressed with these each time I smoke one. Just a gem in my book.

So in my ”a new cigar every day” summer challange it was now time for the HdM Epicure No.1.
Mediocre first half, quiet nice second half but wasn’t really worth the wait.

Smoked a 2006 or 2008 (can’t recall exactly) Epicure 2 on while sneaking 9 in last week.  I meant to post it because it was excellent.  There was a eucalyptus/herbal sweetness in the final 3rd like I’ve never experienced in any cigar.  A lot of 10 year plus Hoyos I’ve had have been extremely mild, but this was a near perfect cigar.  Flavors very well defined.  

Also a big thanks to the Czar team for the generous random draw sampler contest winnings!

I've smoked Epi 1, 2, epi especial, san juans...and I've never been impressed like I have with other marcas. Some have been good...but not anything memorable. I've never had them more than 1-3 years old. Do Hoyos turn amazing with lots of years on them? Is that what I missed?

Yes, same here. I guess they’re just not my profile. On the other hand, I had a HdM Petit Robustos from 2012 a couple of months ago and it will take something quite special to beat that stick as my smoke of the year. Best cigar I’ve had in a long long time.

Yes, there's a UK sub-forum.

Yes, there's a box pass going on.

Yes, this is a plug for both.

(& Yes,[mention=19958]ayepatz[/mention] is behind this, may the deity of his choice have mercy on his soul... )

I have had the complete opposite experience... About 1 year ago, I woke up at 3.30 in the morning to write something. And I smoked a Hoyo Epi 2, which must have been older than 2014. It was bought along with another one. The first one I had was 2-3 days after making the purchase and was disgusting and unsmokable. The other one was about a month later. It was the best cigar I had ever smoked. Just pure honey, brown sugar and cream, an extremely velvety and oily smoke . Absolutely amazing... I will never forget that night/morning. It was pure bliss. 1 hour and 30 minutes of pure wow. My palate was extremely clean, having eaten just some yogurt. Along with some white tea it was incredible. One of the few times I nearly burned my fingers and my mustache smoking it. But it was all worth it. I have had others which were okay, but my God I wish I had a truckfull of those ones... Anyway, I do think aging makes a tremendous difference ...

The UK....??

@ayepatz posted a thread about it last week with the info ("Attention all UK FOHers!") and it's on the FoH homepage at the bottom, but you'll need the password so ask him about that as I don't know what the protocol is on bandying it around.
