Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo de San Juan

Smoking a Hoyo de Monterrey le Hoyo de San Juan

The Hoyo de Monterrey le Hoyo de San Juan has almost perfect construction with a semi-matte wrapper between Colorado Claro and Colorado, which smells of dry hay, wood shavings, and dried fruit at the foot.

Well-packed without any soft spots, the Le Hoyo de San Juan offers excellent resistance to the draw. The burn can become slightly uneven in places, but quickly corrects without any assistance.

The first third is light and floral, with a base note of wood and a hint of sweet spices such as cloves and cinnamon. The spice notes are joined by the aroma of sun-ripened stone fruits and roasted nuts going into the second third. As with most Cubans, the intensity peaks towards the final third with rich caramel and chocolate, creating a lushly layered flavor that lingers long after you are done.
