Tetris with Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 3
Tetris with Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 3? Yes, I have played Tetris 😅 All joking aside! If you have 10 cigar lovers try this new cigar, you will get different results. Because taste preferences are different. The Hoyo de Monterrey is known for its woody and sweet nuances. As the cigar should still mature a little, it had too much tannin for my personal taste (astringent = tongue and palate become dry). But of course this is not a fault of the cigar. Today I had a special guest at the tasting. Watch the 60-second video. I tasted a total of 3 examples. And you can even win something if you read the post carefully 😅

Tasting notes
Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No. 3: I have played TETRIS 😅 It is very well constructed and the draw resistance is optimal.
Great format! 125mm length and 54 ring gauge. I've already cut the cigar in this photo, in case you're wondering...
This is not a photomontage. It's all real. Even the smoke. I'm just an artist 👩🎨😁
It glows almost perfectly. Rarely did the flame have to help with a slight misfire.
The ash is compact and lasts a long time. It becomes a little spicy from around the second half. This is not a fault of the cigar. The boxing date is AUG 23 and it still needs some time to mature. I guess in the course of 2026 (maybe a little earlier) this spiciness will no longer be present.
