Review #14:  A wonderful smoke that is pleasing to the taste and smell. The dark and oily wrapper and perfect shape and color of the ash are a pleasure to behold. The only drawback was that it could have used a bit more aging as it was slightly \"green\" in flavor. - Submitted by cigarsafterdark on July 15, 2005
Review #13: This cigar is all that you expect from a limitada! A wunderful, complex taste and perfect construction with a nice dark and oily wrapper. It\'s medium-bodied but definitely full-flavored! Cinnamon and cocoa are present very distinctly. Now and then they are accompanied by that typical Hoyo-woodines, almost like a teaser. It takes approx. 1 hour and 45 minutes to finish this baby. Truly a great cigar. - Submitted by Bolivar on May 17, 2005
Review #12: I just smoked my first HdM PLE. It started out not unlike a Diplomatico #2 ...perhaps a bit rustic for an LE, but not a bad start.
Unfortuantely things got worse, not better from there. - Citrus notes followed - citrusy-sour that is.
The finish was an unpleasant bloom of mushroom.
Since this is the first I have tried and I have an entire box to go through, if anything changes, I will report any change of impression.
Afterthought - I always look forward to the LE vitolas as representative of the finest materials, workmanship and blending from Cuba, which is my source of choice for a really fine cigar experience.
With over 12 LE vitolas in my humidor, this HdM PLE is the first to suprise me as it did. Since it is the first out of the box, I will withold a final opinion.
The box code is: EOG Aug 03.

Review #11: one of my favourite Piramides. Smoked from two different boxes, both with the same burn and well constructed. The oily wrapper and the rich wrapper are one of the few stuffs that make these cigars one of the best cigars that cuba had produced!! - Submitted by Wantanamera on February 3, 2005
Review #10: This cigar represents the contemporary zenith of Cuban cigar construction at this size. This is the only cigar, of this size, which I have ever rated a 10 and I rank the piramides as my favourite vitola after the double corona. The draw of this cigar is exceptional as is the fluidity of the burn. The cigar creates a large amount of smoke which is extremely thick and rich in its consistency. As in the case of almost all great piramides/torpedoes this is not a cigar that I would recommend to the novice. However, for those who are seeking a cigar that will soon be near impossible to find and bursting with both character and presence, I couldn't recommend this cigar more highly. - Submitted by Jay K. on December 29, 2004
