Cuban Cigars

Quai D'Orsay Imperalies

The Cigar

Nestled within the esteemed lineage of Cuban Cigars, the Quai D'Orsay Imperiales reemerge, offering aficionados a glimpse into a storied past with a modern twist. This recreation of the discontinued classic adheres to the revered dimensions of the Churchill (or Julieta No. 2) 47 ring × 178mm length, a size that commands respect and admiration, mirroring the grandeur of its predecessors. Each cigar is meticulously hand rolled, embodying the pinnacle of Cuban craftsmanship and the rich, complex heritage of tobacco mastery.

Encased in an exquisite humidor, this box comprises 20 cigars, each a testament to the legacy and resurgence of the Quai D'Orsay Imperiales. This humidor is not merely a container but a gateway to a bygone era, rekindled through the artistry and passion of Cuba's cigar artisans. With every puff, enthusiasts are invited to traverse a spectrum of flavours and aromas, a journey that is both a homage to the original Imperiales and a celebration of its revival.

Hoyo de Monterrey Piramides LE 2003. Made from 2 year aged leaves and using the high part of the leaf gives the dark colour and intense flavours. Truely unique.

These cigars are blended in the classic light style of Hoyo de Monterrey. The tin is part of the Retro Linea from Habanos and has been inspired by pocket cigar cases that were popular during the 1970's. This case holds five Petit Coronas and is, of course, indefinitely reusable.

Hoyo de Monterrey Elegantes LCDH

The Cigar

The Hoyo de Monterrey Elegantes is covered in a cinnamon brown wrapper that features a bit of tooth as well as a significant amount of oil. The cigar is quite spongy when squeezed, and there are multiple veins running up and down the length. Aroma from the wrapper is a combination of strong barnyard, manure, grass, cedar and leather, while the cold draw brings flavors of creamy oak, almonds, cinnamon, leather and a touch of citrus.

Hoyo de Monterrey Elegantes LCDH is a unique cigar that is delicate, aromatic, and complex in taste. An attractive choice for the cigar aficionado.

Ring Gauge: 47

Strength: Light 

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.

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.

Hoyo De Monterrey Double Coronas

The Cigar

A mighty cigar with a surprisingly subtle and creamy flavour. It rocketed to stardom when the second issue of Cigar Aficionado rated a late ‘80s example 99 out of 100. Still a cigar to be reckoned with.

The Cigar

We can find here a typical "Le Hoyo" taste, woody above all. This cigar, being small and thin as it is, is perfect for beginners, easy to smoke and with quick combustion. Strongly recommended for those who do not have much time and want about 25 minutes of smoking pleasure.

The flavour of Hoyo de Monterrey’s blend makes it an attractive choice for those who seek a delicate yet aromatic Havana that is lighter to the taste but with great elegance and complexity.

Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure Especial

The Cigar

Introduced as the top of the Epicure line in 2008, this extralength robusto delivers the classic light-flavoured elegance of the Epicure No.2 for an additional five eighths of an inch.

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.

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. One of the most classic cigars for any type of smokers.

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.

Hoyo de Monterrey Rio Seco

The Cigar

Le Hoyo de Rio Seco is the second recent introduction to the "le Hoyo Series", following the 2015 release of Le Hoyo de San Juan. 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

Quai D'Orsay No.54

The Cigar

This is an entirely new size within the Habanos SA portfolio. It is very similar to the Montecristo Edmundo but a fraction wider. A light bodied, easy going and thoroughly modern Havana that is packed full of Gallic charm. 

Hoyo de Monterrey Regalos LE 2007 has true character and elegance. its complexity in taste will make your taste buds sing. Ends on a poweful note.
