Favorite epicure , 11/1/2020 By Coach

Bigger is better. I have always been a fan of the #2. But this is my favorite Epi. Same rich profile, great on light up and a finish that keeps you coming back. Hide these for 2 months and its worth the wait.

A Perfect Stick , 2/11/2020 By Nathan

One of my go to orders from CT. Always arrive in pristine condition and relatively fast. About two weeks to Michigan.

A little darker and more flavor profiles than the Epicure 2. Burn is sharp and slow. Nice medium to full body stick, with that true Cuban flavor.

Nice stick , 2/23/2017 By Anthony

I waited about a month to smoke one of these--it was a perfect smoke for the price. The value was there for a medium bodied stick. Great burn, great aroma, great draw, and great flavor. I don't give a 5 rating for many sticks simply because what would you give a legit Behike? I also don't give ALL attractive women 10's--buy a box--worth every penny.

Full flavor , 7/21/2016 By Kirk

Full flavored cigar with a bit of a woody taste to it. I actually enjoy this as my "after dinner" smoke with a little Wiskey.

This was my very first HDM ever and took this off the advice of James Suckling and boy was he right a great Saturday afternoon racetrack cigar with hints of cinnamon and spice and milder than I thought they would be cant wait to get some age on these as they can only get better with age

Great Mild Cigar , 8/1/2015 By Dave

First you need wait for these. Don't pull them out right away it will make it a great cigar ugly. Perfect afternoon cigar.Transcendental. This cigar when taken care of perfectly is amazing experience. The complexity of what you smoke is levels above just a normal cigar. Pepper, Spice, Cinnamon all come to mind when smoking this cigar. Really great smoke can't wait until more age is on these. A must have in any humidor. Lastly, pairings.. a nice bottle of red wine would go great with this.

Take a walk on the mild side , 3/28/2015 By El Fumador

Fine aroma and a mild experience make this a hit with those who enjoy the milder/lighter habanos. Delicate flavours and better when aged a couple of years.

My favourite, so far , 9/1/2014 By JOE

This is by far my favorite cigar thus far. The only cigar that competes is the H. Upmann No. 2. That's not to say that I have tried all of the top rated cigars, yet. I am always open to new favorites. That being said, I adore these. They have a sweet aroma and taste as though they were dipped into a nice wine.

This is the cigar that brings the most compliments from others in my ambient zone. "Oh that smells so nice. So many cigars smell awful, but that one is beautiful." You won't always hear this smoking a Cohiba or some "American Cuban" (cheap imitations) So you can pull out an Epicure Especial at a party and not create a dead zone where you are talking to yourself.

This cigar, when not filled with tight spots, smokes extremely well. I am saddened by the fact that some arrive with hard spots near the pretty little rings. I hate to cut off an inch or run a hole up the middle, but I will to make the draw return. There is simply nothing worse than a cigar that won't draw well. To me an easy draw is of the utmost importance. So, the rare Epicure Especial disappoints but all in all they are so satisfying.
