Cigar Review: Hoyo De Monterrey Dark Sumatra Noche
Thursday, May 1st, 2008I was gifted one of these by my uncle and I can’t thank him enough. He turned me on to a nice cigar. Though the look of cigar says full strength, the smooth flavors of this cigar make it seem almost mild. This beautiful cigar is blended by Estelo Padrón. The Ecuadoran sun grown wrappers are aged in dried palm leaves. What this does for the flavor, I have no idea, but it obviously works.
Construction: This expertly crafted cigar is very firm with few veins rising from the wrapper. I felt no soft spots along its 6 1/2 inch frame. It has a nice, easy draw warning me to keep it slow and easy. This seems to be about an hour and a half smoke. I learned that to rush it makes for an unpleasant experience.

Nub Habano 460 Cigar Review
Thursday, April 3rd, 2008Sam’s aim behind the Nub is to isolate the best part of each leaf and only use it in the cigars. While this makes for some rather short cigar the girth makes up for it. The 460 burns nearly as long as a Churchill.
