Hoyo De Monterrey de Jose Gener
 
As advertised:
Hoyo De Monterrey Majestic

Origin: Honduras
Length: 6.12
Ring: 45
Strength: Medium-Full
Wrapper Color: Dark Brown (M)
Wrapper Type: Connecticut Broadleaf
Binder: Connecticut Shade
Filler: DR/HON/NIC
Shape: Parejo

I recently bought two bundles of 25 of these puppies after sampling one that I pick up at the local tobacconist shop a few months back.

Very nicely constructed but very toothy wrapper, easy draw before and after lighting this stick.

The first 1/4 had little hints of spice flavor with a strong woody taste that gives a strong stout taste. Literally, I smoked half of the cigar before the ash finally drop onto the pavement into oblivion.:tu

This stick burn evenly from start to finish all six times I've lit one up. Which made me happy, since I always smoke outdoors.

As I finished this smoke the taste of spices got stronger, nearly overwhelming the woody taste near the end the last two inches. which I liked and the ash didn't fall again until I toss it to it's death in the lovely spring grass of my backyard.

I will definately keep a few of these around and for some reason I always seem to smoke this bad boys down to it's last 1/2 inch.
