Hoyo de Monterrey Souvenir De Luxe cigars are classic Mareva, or Petit Corona, sized cigars measuring 5 inches long with a 42 ring gauge. The Petit Corona size is one of the most popular sizes of Cuban cigar sizes. Other cigars that share this size are the Montecristo No 4 and Romeo Y Julieta No 2 (or Mille Fleurs).
These cigars embody the timeless, graceful essence of the Hoyo de Monterrey style, boasting a light yet elegant flavour profile with remarkable sophistication and depth. Adorned with a beautiful, silky, light brown wrapper, these Habanos exude an enticing aroma accompanied by subtle hints of bitterness and woody undertones that enhance the overall elegance and complexity of Hoyo de Monterrey’s creations. The tapered head ensures a concentrated smoke that envelops the palate with a rich and layered experience. For those seeking a delicate yet aromatic Havana cigar, this presents an irresistible choice.
Hoyo de Monterrey cigars trace their origins to the town of San Juan Martinez in the Vuelta Abajo region of Cuba. In 1865, Jose Gener, originally from Tarragona, Spain, bestowed the name of his “vega” upon a brand of Habanos. The term “Hoyo” translates to “hole” and aptly describes the low-lying location of Gener’s plantation along the fertile banks of the San Juan y Martinez River. The brand gained prominence through its renowned Double Coronas, as well as the Epicure No 1, Epicure No 2 and Epicure Especial. Additionally, they produce a line named “La Hoya Series,” which offers a slightly stronger and spicier alternative to the brand’s classic range. All sizes within the collection are meticulously crafted with “tripalarga, totalmente a mano” methods, signifying the use of long filler and entirely handmade construction utilizing leaves from the Vuelta Abajo tobacco zone.
This cigar is part of Habanos SA’s La Linea Retro range of cigars which also includes the H Upmann Regalia, Partagas Capitols, Romeo y Julieta Club Kings. These are all Petit Corona sized cigars and are available in retro metal tins of 5 cigars.
Approximately 30 to 40 minutes.
Also available in tins of 5 cigars.
