Hoyo De Monterrey Icon (Robusto)

Picked her up off Cigarbid...maybe a year ago, maybe two years ago, maybe less, maybe even a bit more. Who knows. Most likely it won for a buck.

There's hints of flavors - corojo spice is decent during the initial puffs and kinda morphs into a fruitiness; pie crust; gritty and soily earth; and a light coffee as the residual. The retrohales offer the flavors in very small and fleeting little pockets of goodness surrounded by a boring carrier that may be cedar-ish (CI says cedar, I say boring warm air).

Burn, construction and pull were all very nice.

Tossed once the burn hit the band.

Judgement:

OK, but pretty decent for a buck. Had better for the same price, and had many, many, many worse - guess it's not so bad considering. I'm good on this stick, though. Had it. Crossed it off the Cigarbid list. And, finally gotten around to burning it after avoiding it. The work here is done. Not recommended.
