    HOYO DE MONETERREY

    Hoyo de Monterrey owes its origin to the town of San Juan y Martinez, which lies at the heart of the Vuelta Abajo zone. Here the Hoyo de Monterrey plantation, one of the great Vegas de Primera, can be reached through a gate on the town's main square inscribed "Hoyo de Monterrey. Jose Gener. 1960."

    "Hoyo" literally means "hole" and in this case describes the low-lying position of the plantation on the fertile banks of San Juan y Martinez river.  Jose Gener, a Spaniard from Tarragona, first used the name of his vega on a brand of Habanos in 1865. 

    The flavour of Hoyo de Monterrey's blend makes 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. 

    The brand is renowned for its Double Corona and for the prestigious Epicure series, the No.1 and No.2, to which the longer Epicure Especial was added in 2008. There is also a range of vitolas known as the Le Hoyo Series. These are generally accepted to be slightly stronger and spicier than the brand’s classic range.

    All sizes are ‘tripalarga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade using filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo tobacco zone.

    EPICURE NO. 2

    The robusto of choice for many cigar epicureans! Formerly presented with no bands, now it sports no less than two so its identity is clear.

  • It lacks the strength of the Cohibas, but it is superior to the Upmanns. Mild flavours at first, blended nicely into a complex finish. Excellent smoke!

    ----

    93 / 100

    "There’s a delightful nut-and-honey sweetness to this smoke, which burns evenly but has a slightly firm draw. A spicy hint of ground nutmeg really livens things up before the warm, toasty finish..."

As a newbie this hit all the right spots - especially pleased as my first Hoyo experience I did not enjoy

I finished this stick just under an hour. The construction and draw is excellent. Creamy, sweet and woody. A fantastic morning smoke. I will be buying more of no2.

Nothing more to say than what has been said already its a quality stick . The one Im smoking was a gift from a friend which I saved until now. Smoking it on the balcony in Crete in with a Metaxa and a sea breeze. Perfect.

Truly an amazing cigar! Without a shed of doubt in the top 5 robustos in the world, due to its consistency alone. I’ve smoked hundreds of these so take it from me it’s a classic. Great flavours of cream, milk chocolate with a some sweet apple and just a hint of cinnamon. It really is a tasty stick. The burn has been even in the majority I’ve had. Great with coffee and great with a single malt also. It’s that versatile. Flavour tends to die out in some cases in the final third but it isn’t unpleasant as you tend to get that sort of nice Cuban tobacco taste. But as a whole it’s a great smoke.
