The Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto is a very elegant and complex Habano.

Dimensions:
Length: 102mm
Diameter: 19.84mm
Ring Gauge: 50
Shape: Petit Robusto
Appearance:
The Hoyo Petit Robusto is a well constructed cigar, with a wrapper the shade of tan bark that is smooth and free of veins or wrinkles. The bunch is solid and the cap is perfectly applied.
Smoking Notes:
Before lighting up
Pre-light draw is perfect with strong aromas of fruit and spices. Reminds us of the glory days of Cuba (Pre-Castro small cigars like Rey Del Mundo Royal Serie No.3).
Burn/ Draw
The cigar lights up easy and draws very well from the beginning. A nice smooth draw throughout with a little touch up required to even out the burn. Burns cool throughout.
Initial third:
The cigar starts out with a little pepper, wood and earth with hints of leather. Starts the way some cigars start their final third. A small puff yields a mouthful of luscious smoke.
Middle third:
By the middle it turns to sweet hay more fruit and leather with some tobacco in the background.
Final third:
By the end, it gets great, rounded out with a meaty, sautéed mushrooms and tobacco flavor. No bitterness detected at all. You hate for it to end while you burn your fingers.
We cannot stop smoking the last part even if we had to burn our fingers. A great cigar.
Smoking time:
45 - 60 Minutes

Bad Luck, but One of My Favorite Brands
, 4/9/2020
By Brad - I decided to prospectively rate this cigar because the one I received had irreparable draw and burn issues. This was definitely a manufacturing flaw and no fault of Cigar Terminal. I've had the Epicure No. 2 before which was remarkable and I'd bet these are similar. Definitely give it a try because this blend works, I just had bad luck.

Have on Hand

By Maximus - Arrived from CT I’m superb condition. Took one out after 8 weeks under the watchful eye of my humidor. Paired it with a top shelf bourbon on my vacation. Great flavor, perfect burn and lots of smoke. A must have on hand for family and friends.
