Hoyo De Monterrey
Year of foundation: 1865
Tobacco Country: Cuba
Tobacco Procedence: Vuelta Abajo
Factory: La Corona
Established in 1865 by José Gener in the Vuelta Abajo region, Hoyo de Monterrey (“Valley of Monterrey” in Spanish) refers to the typical geography of the farmland used for the premium tobacco plantations. There is also a Hondurian Hoyo de Monterrey cigar brand that was started after the Cuban revolution. However, the original brand is Cuban Hoyo de Monterrey that is mentioned here.
The Hoyo de Monterrey brand is known to roll excellent quality mild-medium cigars in various sizes, the most famous being the Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure No.2, the Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure De Luxe and the Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure Especial.
Around the middle of the 20th century, the Le Hoyo series was launched for a Swiss distributor, A. Dürr Co, and these cigars are generally stronger than the regular Hoyos.

Hoyo de Monterrey Hermosos No.4 Anejados – 25 cigars
$649.00Out of stock
The Hoyo de Monterrey Hermosos No.4 Anejados is of Corona Extra format, 48 ring gauge and 5 inches (127mm) in length This cigar was released in late 2015 along with the Partagas Coronas Gordas Anejados as special editions that are available in very limited quantities. The particularity of these cigars is that they have been produced 5 to 8 years ago and then aged in their original cedar boxes. These cigars are incredibly mild and creamy due to the aging process and develop an intense woody flavor thanks to cedar box that contains the Hermosos No.4. These are rather mild cigars, with a body evolving from mild to medium, which makes them the perfect daily smoke. Nonetheless, they are also pretty complex cigars, in addition to woody flavors, there are also notes of pepper, leather and of bittersweet chocolate. Each box has been individually box opened and each stick has been checked before being banded with an additional Aged Habanos (Anejados) band. This is why you can find under each box the original stamp recording the date and factory where they have been rolled 8 years ago plus an additional “Revisado” (checked) stamp. Learn More -
