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.

LE HOYO DE RIO SECO

Le Hoyo de Rio Seco is the second recent introduction to the 'Le Hoyo Series' following the Le Hoyo de San Juan released in 2015. These cigars only use Seco and Ligero leaves grown in San Juan y Martinez, a small town in Vuelta Abajo, a world famous tobacco growing zone in Cuba.

Tasting Notes

91 / 100

"Made with a triple cap, there is a tawny hue to the somewhat veiny cigar. The smoke is floral atop a foundation of assorted nuts, chocolate, oak and a hint of graham cracker. The burn and draw are even throughout..."

I smoked one of these at the Humidor London Christmas Herf last weekend, I couldnt have picked a better cigar for the occasion. Packed full of flavour, superb draw and held its ash well. Burn was a little uneven at one point, but I cant fault it.

Cut it before I took the dog for a walk and found the draw very tight so couldnt get much taste out of it. However once back home I cut it further down - it has a deep cap and it sprang to life. Pleasant and consistent taste. I had originally bought it to keep for a year but it was my last stick left. May buy another one and keep for a year. I think (hope) itll improve with age, which is more than I can say about myself.
