Hoyo du Gourmet MUR MAR 13 NTYRW

[Wailbait]

A great gift from @earthson.  So excited to try this as I have never had one.  Love this size as it is reminiscent of MDO 4 which I love.  

Two words: Elegant.

Took a personal day from work to get wife tires and while waiting, popped by @leepers home to make a short rib stew.  Seemed like a great time to try this long-thinnie.  
 

At first light I get toast and leather.  Not much else.  But it’s refined.  About 1/3 in there’s a fabulous green grass quality.  Not the same grass as young cigar.  But something fresh and easy.  Paired with EH Taylor bonded bourbon.  Reasonably decent pairing but I wish I made a martini at this point.

Draw is firm but great.  Never had one of these before but I can see how these have their fans.  It’s just such a relaxing smoke. It’s not the end-all of complexity but it’s just so darn enjoyable and refined.  I will seek these out.  My guess is further time might really benefit as well.  

Thank you @earthson
