About Hoyo De Monterrey Cigars
The Hoyo de Monterrey plantation is one of the Vegas de Primera – first class fields– where it’s soil and micro-climate lend to Hoyo de Monterrey flavour. The flavour of Hoyo de Monterrey’s blend make it an attractive choice for those who seek a delicate yet aromatic Habano that is lighter to the taste but with great elegance and complexity. Made using the Tripa Larga, Totalmente a Mano – long filler, totally hand made – technique, using filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo tobacco zone.

Woody and tea with light floral undertones. Delicious.
Fred –
One of my all time favorite cigars. Perfect at any time of the day but especially good with a morning coffee. Great delicate start with abundant smoke production and increasing complexity. The strength builds quite nicely as you approach the end. I highly recommend keeping a couple of the Epicure No. 2s in the box though the price can be a bit hard to take.
