Hoyo De Monterrey Epicures No.2
Hoyo De Monterrey Epicures No.2
The Cigar:
The robusto of choice for many cigar epicureans. Formerly presented without any band, now it sports no less than two, so its identity is clear.
VITOLA: Robusto
RING GAUGE: 50
LENGTH: 4 7/8 inches - 124 mm
FLAVOUR: Light
Hoyo De Monterrey De San Juan
Hoyo De Monterrey De San Juan
The Cigar:
Hoyo de Monterrey is by far the most popular brand within the light flavour category outlined by Habanos S. A. The Le Hoyo series is typified by a delicate, cedar taste with a hint of white pepper and cream, that remains light enough for inexperienced smokers, while offering enough elegance and layering of flavours to keep aficionados satisfied.
Min Ron NEE in his 2003 tome ‘An Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Post-Revolution Havana Cigars’ says Hoyo de Monterrey cigars are ‘characterised by their soft, sweet style. The tobacco blend is creamy sweet, mild and aromatic’.
This new cigar displays all of these classic characteristics but, with a 54 ring gauge, does so within a very modern format. Most agree that, although it is displaying a great deal of subtlety, finesse and delicacy already, it also has wonderful ageing potential for the medium to long term.
A most welcome addition to the Hoyo family.
VITOLA: Geniales
RING GAUGE: 54
LENGTH: 5 7/8 inches - 150 mm
FLAVOUR: Light

Hoyo De Monterrey Petit Robustos
Hoyo De Monterrey Petit Robustos
The Cigar:
Perhaps this cigar would have been better named Epicure No.3 as its presentation and style of taste are identical to the Epicure 1 & 2. Introduced in 2004, it was a timely anticipation of what smokers would face with smoking bans.
VITOLA: Petit Robusto
RING GAUGE: 50
LENGTH: 4 inches - 102 mm
FLAVOUR: Light

Hoyo De Monterrey Epicures No.1
Hoyo De Monterrey Epicures No.1
The Cigar:
A long standing favourite amongst the admirers of this classic, heavyish gauge size. Lighter tasting than the Punch Punch or Cohiba Siglo IV, but plenty of fragrant complexity nonetheless.
