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. 

Hoyo de Monterrey was the first brand to introduce a Petit Robusto in 2005, the 50 ring gauge size with a shorter length to suit those who like thicker formats, but do not always have the time to enjoy them.

Tasting Notes

A fairly new addition to the Hoyo range. It was added to the brand in 2004 and was probably one of the best new cigars produced in that year. Full of flavour, spice, rich and sweet. The cigar lasts around 40 minutes and have a great flavour and complexity. Definitely a cigar to be smoked with at least 6 months age.

88 / 100

"...While there was some inconsistency noted in the draw and combustion, this short cigar is salty and nutty with intermittent notes of orange peel, grass and dry woods..."

I’m only just starting out so I’ve only had the chance to try a few cigars but have to say this is my favourite yet! Lovely burn and woody/nutty flavour - will definitely buy again!

A beautiful smoke. Well constructed and the draw is near perfect. had 3 of these in the last 2 months. Nice woody and nutty flavours. Burns great with very little retouching a staple in my collection. Goes down well with an iced coffee or very hoppy IPA. Dark beers I find get washed out with this cigar

WHAT A GREAT LITTLE CIGAR - PERFECT FOR THE SHORT SMOKE EITHER ON THE GOLF COURSE OR ON THE BALCONY OF THE CLUBHOUSE AFTERWARDS! SUPER DRAW AND EVEN BURN FROM THE FIRST PUFF TO THE LAST!

A great cigar. The nice draw, the construction of the cigar was well made and the aroma was very nice. Will definitely buy again.

Tight draw. Couple of touch ups needed. Wrapper started to unravel in 2nd third. Kind of fruity room odour. Lasted around 50 minutes, likely due to how tight the draw was. First third: Initial blast of pepper. Usual wood and hay taste thereafter. Very smooth. Second third: Pepper fallen to the background, some nut and creaminess. Hay still there. Finishes slightly fruity. Remains smooth but tight. Final third: Pepper comes back. Retrohale gives a fruity pepper through the nose. Creaminess and nuttiness still here but less so. Ash fell at this stage. Cigar went out so had to relight. For me this cigar has good flavour but construction issues marred my experience. Im going to have to try another to see if I had a bad stick
