One of the best in the format. It’s even a bit too short, wish I could make the last third last longer. Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto will make you forget about other short cigars for a while (until you smoke all of them, actually).

Appearance :
Short, fat, and beautiful. I like the way the Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto looks.
 
Construction :
Beautiful construction, smooth wrapper with some very small veins. Excellent draw with very ample smoke. Pretty good burn with some uneveness, had to touch it up several times.

Flavor :
It started out tasting a little young with some hints of amonia, but this soon burned off and the rest of the cigar was excellent. If you don’t want to experience this harsh flavor in the beginning, just make sure the cigar is aged at least 4 months. The first third contains fruity tastes, with hints of vanilla. The second third offers tastes of leather, pepper, cedar. The last third climaxes to a complex taste party; I can not describe but it’s sure delicious.

Value :
I have already bought a box of those, and so should you. Usually it turns out to be a good investment.

Overall Rating :
A good 45 minutes smoke. These are probably my favorite cigars in this format. High quality product.
