Hoyo des Dieux

Corona Grande 6x42

This cigar came from a 5x5 pack from Nov 03


This is a nice looking cigar with a beautiful light wrapper. Burn from the start to finish was almost perfect and didn't require any touch up. Draw was excellent with plenty of smoke.

This isn't a cigar that will knock you on your arse, but it isn't a cigar thats flat and tastless either. From the first light I got that cuban twang that I soo love, subtle at first, but once I got to the first quarter it really starts to get going. I'm not great at picking out certain flavors in a smoke but this one I would say had a distinct woody flavor to it. The twang is there from the start, and just keeps building and stays there throughout. Never did this cigar get hot, harsh, or bitter, just a beautiful hour plus smoke. Heard a lot of people say this is too light and lacks flavor but I didn't find this at all. Its a medium type smoke that would be great with a morning coffee or after lunch smoke, or any time you want a good flavorful smoke and don't want to feel dizzy afterward. Look forward to smoking plenty more of these.

I'm not a fan of the HdM line BUT the Le Hoyo line is a different story. MRN says these are "more intense and woody in flavor when compared to the regular Hoyo de Monterrey cigars." and I agree with this.

The Le Hoyo des Dieux is my favorite of this line measuring 6 1/8 x 42, the "Coronas Grandes" vitola. MRN also says these are the best of the line by general consensus.

Islesfan, your review is right on the money in my opinion!! :thumbs:
