This week I opened a box of HdM Piramides El 2003. This cigar is a good example of the fact that it is worthwhile to smoke the cigars immediately after Release. I did that at that time with two single sticks and it was the most fruity cigar I have ever smoked. Incredibly!
After 14 years of storage, the cigar is still fruity, but only a little. The Wrappers are dark Maduro, but the cigar is quite mild. Much milder than I remember the two single sticks. Very fine fruity taste with lightly notes of chocolate. Really a delicious cigar.
