The Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure Number 1 was always a staple in my humidor. I love a Corona Gorda and the Epicure Number one scratched that itch for many years. I hit a bad run in the 2018's/19's (construction) and they drifted out of my rotation. In terms of Cuban cigars, the Punch Punch and H. Upmann Magnum 46 took the load. I have recently revisited the Epicure Number One and have been impressed. Has it rebounded back to where it once was? What is your current experience?
