Hoyo De Monterrey - Le Hoyo De San Juan - Box of 25
Hoyo De Monterrey - Le Hoyo De San Juan - Box of 25
A box of 25 cigars, the connoisseur's choice for laying down and ageing.
From the Le Hoyo series, introduced in 2014: a broad Geniales with more body than the classic Hoyo range.
Hoyo de Monterrey was first used as a brand in 1865 by José Gener, named after his plantation at San Juan y Martínez in the Vuelta Abajo; the gate still bears his name. Habanos class the classic Hoyo range as light in flavour: delicate, aromatic and elegant.
Connoisseurs' notes
Published reviewers commonly describe the Le Hoyo de San Juan as having earthy and floral, creamy, with wood, honey and almond.
Summarised from published tasting notes (Cigar Aficionado and specialist tobacconists).
