Lounge Lizards: EPi 3 any good? Angel Rose, Have Cohiba & Trinidad turned? Next Habanos move?

[El Presidente]

Grab a cigar and a drink....put it on in the background. Brilliant. 

The lizards pair the Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 3 with Château d'Esclans Whispering Angel Rosé. The guys debate whether a market correction has started for Cohiba and Trinidad, they learn what marca might be next for a Habanos brand pivot and they share a listener voice memo.

Have had whispering angel many times & it is a good rose. Looks like may have to try HdM#3, after writing off the #2 as pedestrian

Had my first Epi 3 a few days before the Lizards episode and had a similarly excellent experience with it. I love Hoyo more than most of the Lizards in general but it was good to see an expression of the brand that resonates.

I suggest anyone curious try some for yourself, it’s my favorite regular production cigar to come out on a while. A torpedo helps me overcome disliking a squat ring gauge.

I hope that HSA does not try to increase prices on Quai d'Orsay. The 50 is a mainstay for me of (relative) affordability. 😕
