Popular Post JohnS Posted November 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.2 ABO Jun 2018 I picked up a quarter pack offering of Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.2's a few months ago from a 24:24 listing, even though I have a quarter box of my BUP Mar 2018 HdM Epicure 2's left in my humidor, because when I feel like a light, mild robusto every now and then, invariably, I turn to an Epi 2. This ABO Jun 2018 Epi 2 was less 'toasty', had less cedar or wood, had copious amounts of cocoa and vanilla and had very little spice. Overall, it was a very, very good example of this vitola. Dare I say it, but I would have to concede that it smoked better than my last few Epicure No.2's from my other, slightly older, box, which have been more stronger on the wood or cedar in general. I think I need to smoke a few more of these ABO Jun 2018 Epi 2's just to see if the next one is similar to this one tonight. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post lovethehaze Posted November 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2019 NC today. 1926 No6 natural robusto burn, smoke output and draw 10/10. Huge nicotine pop. Strong black pepper in the pallet, wood and salt. Like a SPNP on roids minus the pepper. Not my favorite but no elbows at all. This thing is smoooooth love the ash on these too. More it smokes the better it gets. cheers 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Vito Posted November 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2019 Smoked a Padron 1964 Torp and it was a little too strong and peppery for my liking. It settled down a bit at the halfway point. On another note, I put my Don Alejandro next to my other noncubans as I was surprised at how similar the wrappers are on those Tatuaje Reserva SW to the wrapper on the Robaina. I’m looking forward to lighting one up as I’m newer to the noncuban side of things (quit buying noncubans years ago once I figured out how to source cubans regularly and not just when one of the neighborhood guys got his hands on a box or ten. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RDB Posted November 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2019 Not my usual thing at all: Pyramides Extra. Tubo of unknown age. Couple of years I guess? Fabulous looker. Bean, milk coffee, some sweetness but more caramel than honey. V nice retrohale. Wonky burn. Creeps up on you, and now I feel a bit woozy. Worth the tariff? Probably not, but I liked it all the same. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I like a little spice in my stogies. But for those who dont, Padrons dont have to rest long for that pepper to smooth out. I had a '64 Diplo Maduro today that had been in the humi just under a year, and the pepper spice was almost non-existent. I agree completely. I have some well aged Olivia V Torpedos 10-15yrs? That pepper is long gone. Medium strength at best. But I think past prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
