2 Classic Robusto's from '07

Very pleased with these. PSD4 GOP AGO 07 and Hoyo EPI #2 MEL NOV 07.

Side by side, all is how it should be. nice construction. The Hoyo noticably lighter then the Partagas. Nice looking smokes.

First the hoyo, earlier in the day. Clipped clean and perfect draw. Nice medium body, performed flawlessly, good amount of smoke. Notes of toast, light spices and well balanced and smooth. A joy to smoke any time of day. Very pleased. Only good things to come as they age.

After dinner the Partagas. Lil bun under the cap (makes me happy). Again perfect draw. Lots and lots of smoke.. wow. Full earthy taste. Never had the volume of smoke like this from a Habano. Hints of spices, long finish. These will be dynamite over the next few months. Flavors too muddled right now.

2 classic habanos from late '07. These will be nice over the summer, and then age the rest for a few years. Good stuff .
