Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure 2 RUM SEP 18 (FWRC)

[Ry27]

One of the most incredible flavors I ever had in the cigar was one of the first HdM Epicure 2s I’ve ever had. It was pure sugarcane, almost too sweet. I was amazed a flavor that intense came from rolled up tobacco leaves. That is part of what made me passionate about cigars. 
 

I have a soft spot for the Epi 2 because of that aforementioned cigar. I’ve not had one of these in a while so I was excited to light one up. This cigar has a very full pack, felt like a tight draw but I massaged it out and had no issues. 
 

1/3 had flavors of cream and coffee, light hints of nuts and toasted tobacco

2/3 doughy sweetness was predominate, and I actually got some hints of popcorn in there, a buttery touch to it, a first for me. 
 

final 3rd leveled off to core woody flavors and cream. A solid cigar, an easy 90/91 for me.
