shrink Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 The Epicure series are not only my favorite Hoyos, but are the only ones I smoke. They have much more spice, and body than the rest of the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdbrown Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I really like recent Epic 2. My 06 have really come around lately. Wonderful smoke! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugomarink Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 You never hear much about the Hoyo Churchills. The only one I ever tried (about a decade ago) wasn't that good. Does anybody like these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try and grab a box of late `06 Epi 2`s . They are smoking great ROTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I haven't had a churchill for some time. I found them to be too dry and woody for my taste. It wouldn't hurt to get a few singles of each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuller, more flavoursome. The 07 HDM DC are not as full as the late 06 and on Epi 2. Very good but certainly a tad milder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find few reviews of the churchill. Interesting opinions. I used to smoke these. Mostly from '04 and '05 stock. I smoked through them and simply stopped as I was unimpressed with the floral and mild (to me) flavor and body of the cigar. I have only smoked a few HDM DCs and Churchills and all of them had some age on them and they were enjoyable. I usually stick with the Le Hoyo line within the HDM brand.

FuglyE Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 .. thanks for input. Decided to go with Punch Churchill, as I'm stuck on that size for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try a couple singles from each, if you can get late `06 then I think you will be suprised. I tend to make my `06 Epi 2`s last a long time, they are that good I am not constantly puffing on them!! I probably take as long to smoke one as I would an aveage DC!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehdg Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Congrats on the choice. Let us know how they turn out. Though for my own tastes I'd have gone with the Epi 2. I love their size and taste. Don't have as much time to typically smoke a churchill but a Robusto I can sneak in most days. They're great in either the morning or evening.
