The Hoyo de Monterrey Monterreyes No. 4, part of the prestigious Limited Edition 2021, is a gros robusto measuring 145 mm by a 55 ring gauge, wrapped in a rich, oily Colorado Maduro leaf. The cold draw presents subtle earth and wood notes, while ignition reveals lightly spiced wood and roasted undertones.
Though occasional combustion issues arise after the first third, potentially causing overheating, the cigar steadily gains strength. Its flavor profile deepens with inviting cocoa notes, complemented by burnt wood, earthy nuances, and dark chocolate aromas.
The finish lingers with a touch of astringency and spice in the final third, despite periodic purging. While the construction imperfections prevent it from earning the coveted fifth ring rating, the Monterreyes delivers an exceptionally refined tasting experience worthy of its limited-edition status.
